Every Life Matters
Whether it’s a bird, reptile or mammal— every species has a role to play in the ecosystems that are vital to humanity’s progress. Your contribution directly supports science-backed efforts to maintain the wellbeing of these species, and the balance of their ecosystems.
How You Can Save Lives
As an impact-first brand, Ameliya Safaris is committed to connecting people with wildlife and inspiring conservation efforts. To achieve our broader conservation goals, we’ve partnered with RESQ Charitable Trust to address one of the most pressing challenges to wildlife conservation today: human-animal conflict.
RESQ Charitable Trust is a leading not-for-profit NGO dedicated to providing emergency aid to wildlife in distress, along with tackling complex human-wildlife conflicts, rehabilitating wildlife for reintroduction, and raising the bar for wildlife welfare and policy advocacy in India. Your donations play a pivotal role in allowing RESQ CT to provide aid and sanctuary to numerous wild species and the humans they share their habitat with.
Wildlife RESQ'd since 2020
The positive impact is evident not just in these numbers, but also in the minds and hearts RESQ CT has changed, inspiring people to reimagine their relationship with India’s wildlife and ecosystems.
Ameliya's Commitment to Conservation
Through the AmeliyaRESQ Fund, our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and release 500 animals back into the wild in 2025 and we’re giving our progress a jumpstart with an initial donation of ₹5,00,000. This initial funding will help three species in particular:
Leopards
Leopards are a highly dynamic and adaptive species. They often stray into human-dominated landscapes and are met with dangerous consequences. Many of the leopards under RESQ’s care were displaced during harvest season, and some of them were found as week-old cubs. Our goal here is to cover treatment, rehabilitation and re-wilding of these leopards.
Vultures
A vital species of scavengers, vultures are cleaners of the ecosystem, but have suffered devastating losses due to poisoning and harmful cattle medications. Ameliya Safaris has pledged to sponsor the rehabilitation efforts of white-rumped vultures under RESQ CT’s specialised rehabilitation program that were rescued from prolonged captivity situations.
Turtles & Tortoises
These are often highly trafficked animals and are usually found as pets. And when people cannot take care of them, they release it somewhere where it can’t survive. This project, funded by Safari with Suyash, focuses on R&D of a structured approach to turtle & tortoise rehabilitation. Benefiting over 450 turtles currently, and many more in the future.
Conservation is about action
We are living through unprecedented times, and while we realize that the list of problems is exhaustive, and we can’t solve all of them – we can always begin with one. One animal, one tree, one piece of land at a time. If we each take responsibility for protecting just one life or one corner of the world, together, we can create a much better future for wildlife as well as communities living alongside them.
BECOME A DONOR
What happens now?
This is just the beginning.
Each donation to the AmeliyaRESQ Fund will be put to use where it’s most needed. This means that your impact isn’t limited to one species or function, your donation could help sponsor an emergency rescue case a big cat, or go towards essential medical supplies required for an injured bird, or to re-wild an orphaned hyena, or it might go towards community education and outreach programs.
