World Animal Protection India

This baby Asian Palm Civet should have been in the wild — not in human hands.

Every year, countless wild animals are trapped, traded, and displaced from their natural habitats due to the illegal wildlife trade. Many never make it back home.

This civet was rescued in North 24 Parganas, Habra, and is now under care before being safely released. But not every animal gets a second chance.

Wildlife belongs in the wild.
Say NO to the illegal wildlife trade.

Leopards are essential to the health of natural ecosystems. As apex predators, they help maintain balance within the food chain by regulating prey populations, which in turn supports vegetation and overall biodiversity. Despite their adaptability, increasing habitat loss, fragmentation, and human-wildlife conflict continue to threaten their survival. Safeguarding leopards means protecting the ecosystems they sustain — ensuring stability not just for wildlife, but for the environment as a whole.
