Animal Care and Conservation

A sustainable future for the planet can only be achieved if both animals and people are part of the

solution. However, it is not at all uncommon to see animals - domestic, stray or wild often

exploited and taken for granted. It is a forgotten fact that even they need food and water.

Conservation and management of animals have a significant bearing on the survival of every

species by helping in promotion of rational use of environment to provide a high quality of living

for mankind. Animal care and conservation envisages not only the protection of the existing

populations of animals and their habitats, but also the breeding and farming of rare animals.

As a volunteer you will be assigned to work with organisations involved in the field of impacting

political and economic climate, habitat protection, breeding and farming, special wildlife projects,

legislative measures, nurse ailing and injured animals.

The major activities that you may be assigned are:

•Providing treatment and taking care of the Animals.

•Conducting surveys, documentation,

•Policy advocacy, designing appropriate IEC (Information, Education and Communication)

Materials, community awareness and education.

The Info-sheet will have more information regarding the individual projects with schedules, and

activities.

Note: Limited projects are available, and requires an application for the duration of minimum of

three months.
