Hello and greetings from Wildlife Trust of India!
We hope you are doing great.
With this email, we are sharing the updates for our project titled 'Vanishing Stripes: Save the Bengal Tiger”. We are so honoured and grateful for your support as you chose to donate for the project among so many wonderful causes out there. This means a lot to us. Thank you so much for believing in our work.
Today’s updates are from the Kawal Tiger Reserve in Telangana.
Kawal Tiger Reserve, an important tiger habitat in India, is plagued by timber smuggling. This has resulted in steady deterioration of the tiger habitat. The frontline staff deployed at the Tiger Reserve to prevent any tiger poaching and timber smuggling activities were operating amidst a dearth of basic amenities to conduct these essential activities. To supplement them, we provided the teams with necessary field kits comprising – solar home kits, torchlights, first aid boxes, blankets and jackets.
As the staff patrols nearly 8-10 kilometres of the reserve every day, the equipment and field gear added to their productivity and helped them with efficient patrolling. In the reporting period, the team managed to apprehend 3 timber mafia groups.
The above could be made possible through your support. Thank you so much for your donation.
Warm regards,
Team WTI
