This article is about the organization. For the TV show, see Wildlife SOS (TV Show).

Wildlife SOS is an organization founded in 1995 to protect and conserve India's natural heritage, forest, and wildlife. It is also involved in conserving habitat, studying biodiversity, conducting research, rescuing wildlife, and creating alternative and sustainable livelihoods for erstwhile poacher communities or those communities that depend on wildlife for sustenance.

History

In 2005, Wildlife SOS Co-Founders Kartick Satyanarayan and Geeta Seshamani raised funds at various fundraising and awareness engagements in the United States. Wildlife SOS USA was set up as a 501(c)(3) charity organization in order to act as a vehicle for Americans to rally to the cause of protecting and enabling Seshamani's and Satyanarayan's work in support of endangered and threatened wildlife. In 2009, Wildlife SOS UK was launched in support of the conservation work taking place in India. They work in close collaboration with the staff in India to raise awareness.
