Our work

Our objectives.

The work is organised around a few clear aims — each one grounded in what happens in the field.

A

Rescue and rehabilitation

Snakes in kitchens, injured birds, monitor lizards in drains. Volunteers respond across Nalanda and hand animals to the forest department for release.

  • Round-the-clock rescue calls
  • Safe handling and release
  • Snakebite first-response advice
B

Education and eco clubs

School eco clubs, nature stalls and outdoor sessions that put students in front of the species living around their own villages.

  • School and college outreach
  • Nature education stalls
  • Monthly nature walks
C

Species monitoring

Heronry counts, nest monitoring and bird documentation across Nalanda, recorded by volunteers and shared with researchers.

  • Asian openbill nest monitoring
  • Birdlife of Nalanda checklist
  • Herpetofauna records
D

Habitat protection

Forest fire prevention around Rajgir Wildlife Sanctuary, wetland cleanups and training for forest department frontline staff.

  • Fire-line awareness drives
  • Pond and sarovar cleanups
  • Frontline staff workshops

See how these objectives are carried out.

Each objective maps to a division that runs the day-to-day work.
