In the last hundred years, the world lost about 95% of its tigers. But now, for the first time in a decade, tiger numbers have gone up! This is a sign of hope, and evidence that when governments, local communities, conservationists and ordinary people come together, anything is possible. There is still much to be done – and we need your support!
Snow leopards are disappearing. Their numbers have fallen by over 20 percent in less than 20 years. With as few as 4,000 left in the wild, and only around 500 in India, this magnificent big cat could soon vanish forever. But with your help – we can still save them.
Sniffer dogs aid in combatting wildlife crime by helping collecting concrete evidence against poachers and smugglers. 41 sniffer dogs have been deployed in India so far, but our wildlife needs the protection of more such dogs – contribute today!
We know you share our optimism that it’s possible to change the world, one decision at a time. From choosing reusable cloth bags over plastic to taking the bus/metro instead of driving, every decision we make is important. Choose to stand for the planet – show your support!

Donors Speak
I was not aware of the effects that a declining tiger population can have on our lives, but WWF-India made me aware of them. Now, not only do I donate on a regular basis towards conserving and protecting the tiger but I also encourage my friends to do so!
It's been almost five years since I have been donating towards WWF India’s efforts to reduce poaching of endangered animals. Nothing feels better than knowing that I’m doing my bit towards wildlife conservation.
I always loved wild animals but was apprehensive about donating. WWF changed it all with its transparent approach and clear details of how my donation would be used. Now, I donate regularly and look forward to my updates from WWF.
WWF Successes
Solar Energy to Protect People and Tigers
Through Project Sahastra Jyoti, 69 households and 25 shops in Annpur Hamlet in the Sundarbans now have access to solar electricity! This prevents villagers from entering forest areas in search of fuelwood, and tigers from entering the well-lit village – protecting both tigers and villagers! We have been working extensively with local communities in the Sundarbans to provide them with cost effective renewable energy solutions - while reducing the pressure on surrounding forests. This smart project has also helped improve living conditions here – children can now study till after sunset, food is prepared without toxic fumes being emitted, shops are open till late, and people no longer fear sudden tiger attacks.
Building a future in which humans live in harmony with nature.
