The official page of Wildlife Trust of India (WTI), a non-profit conservation organisation, committed to urgent action that works towards the protection of India's wildlife. Its mission is to conserve nature, especially endangered species and threatened habitats, in partnership with communities and governments. Established in November 1998, in response to the rapidly deteriorating condition of the country's wildlife, with only three staff members, WTI now has a team of over 100 full-time professionals and consultants, in addition to volunteers from all walks of life. The core team includes scientists, field biologists, conservation managers, veterinarians, lawyers, finance, business management and communication specialists, who operate diverse conservation projects across India. In 25+ years, WTI has grown to be one of India's premier wildlife NGOs. The principal concerns of WTI include crisis management and provision of quick, efficient aid to individuals, species or habitats that require it the most. In its 25+ years of operations, WTI has saved more than 54,334 animal lives, trained and equipped 20,076 frontline forest staff and covered them under India's pioneering supplementary accident assurance scheme that also covers Covid-19, assisted the govt. in creating 7 Protected Areas, sensitised more than 30 lakh children to conservation, protected almost 1,77,664 hectares of natural habitat including mangroves and coral reefs, assisted enforcement agencies in almost 302 enforcement operations to dismantle wildlife trade and trafficking. WTI is a registered charity in India (under Section 12A of the Income Tax Act, 1961) and is mandated by its Board of Trustees to ensure that 85% of all specified donor monies go to the field for direct conservation action.
