We Need Your Help Urgently. It's A Terrible Sight,..

WE NEED YOUR HELP URGENTLY.

It’s a terrible sight, but we cannot apologise for the trauma that these wildlife go through until the cruel trade in exotic wildlife ends.

An estimated 20,000 Indian star tortoises are poached from the wild in India each year to meet the demand for the illegal wildlife trade. From the point they are captured in the wild, to the smuggling, the transporting, and finally ending up thousands of miles away from home, Indian star tortoises suffer greatly. Life will never be ideal for wild animals whose complex needs are often not met in captivity.

Now, with great support from the Government of India, the Indian Customs Authorities, Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA), and our partnering organisation, Wildlife SOS, we can finally return the freedom that was snatched from these star tortoises. With over 50 Indian stars prepping for a repatriation next month, we urgently need your help.

Please take a stand against the illegal wildlife trade.
