“I’m such a big, big admirer of the work that Wildlife SOS does…someday I want to come and volunteer with you. My message would be that try and think more about others, try and be kind to animals…stay safe and coexist!”
Jim Sarbh
“It was amazing and inspiring to see all of the rescued animals at Wildlife SOS and the way the staff treated them with respect and care. I hope to come back and to be able to continue to volunteer and donate to this cause. I would encourage other people to do the same!”
Sidharth Malhotra
“Wildlife SOS is doing some fabulous work by saving the endangered species. It’s extremely essential for each one of us to do our bit and help save our animals.”
Lesley Nicol
“I wanted to see elephants in India who were properly looked after and not abused in captivity, and I found myself visiting Wildlife SOS. Most of these elephants here have been rescued from temples, circuses, from giving tourist rides etc. and have been given a second chance at life. I had a wonderful time touring their elephant rescue centre.”
Adil Hussain
“I learnt a lot about the suffering that elephants undergo and I would never endorse elephant rides or use of elephants in any kind of tourism or elephant processions. I fully support Wildlife SOS for the amazing work they do to protect elephants, bears and other wildlife.”
Paul O’Grady, MBE
“Asian elephants are very special creatures and we need to protect them. If you’d like to see an elephant, don’t go riding on their back or go looking at them at temples, come to Wildlife SOS. We can get you close up to an elephant and actually see what they’re like. There are loads of elephants at Wildlife SOS, all leading a happy life now, all being looked after, being cared for and no more of this brutality.”
Yuzvendra Chahal
“It was a pleasure to visit the Wildlife SOS Rescue Centers. The efforts that they are putting in to help these animals is really heart touching and I definitely hope to visit the bears and elephants again.”
Farah Khan
“Thanks to my 12 year old daughter Anya I got introduced to your most wonderful organisation. We need more of you in the world.”
Abhishek Banerjee
“To be the voices of those who can’t express through words is a great service to this planet. We need to stop any kind of cruelty towards Animals. Wildlife SOS is doing a great job in helping and supporting animals and giving them a new home & a new life. We all need to come together and support Wildlife SOS!”
Pharrell Williams
“Congratulations Wildlife SOS and good luck for the universal work that you do here and the effect you have on anyone who sees this!”
Yusuf Pathan
“There is a need to protect and conserve India’s wildlife. Species like elephants particularly need to be cared for as India is the last remaining stronghold of endangered Asian elephants. Wildlife SOS is doing a great job with helping these elephants and bears and they have my complete support.”
Jennifer Winget
“I have been following the extensive and dedicated work of the Wildlife SOS team for a long time and have always longed to have closer access not just to the animals they save and work for, but to the team and everything that goes on here. Elephants are magnificent and yet the gentlest of creatures and to be in such close company is awe-inspiring, to say the least.”
Disha Patani
“Visiting India’s first Elephant Hospital and meeting the team has been an incredible experience. To understand the plight of India’s Elephant’s and the work of Wildlife SOS has been an incredible experience. I learnt that once captured from the wild, they can never go back again. I also learnt about the irreversible and permanent damage that riding an elephant does to its health and welfare. I hope people come and volunteer at the Wildlife SOS Elephant Conservation and Care Centre, and be a part of this fight to help conserve and protect India’s elephants.”
Divya Seth Shah
“I would urge all of you to visit India’s first ever elephant hospital and witness yourself how safely these elephants have been kept here. The team here provides them with the best treatment and diet, and they make sure that the elephants forget their tragic pasts. I would also urge you all to sign Wildlife SOS’ petition on train collisions, and through the story of Bani – a baby elephant who was rescued from a railway accident – make sure that our trains and railway tracks do not intrude on elephant corridors,”
Adah Sharma
“Visiting the Wildlife SOS centres has been an enlightening experience. It’s crucial for us, as humans, to cultivate empathy towards animals to combat the daily atrocities inflicted upon our wildlife. I encourage everyone to visit these facilities to witness firsthand the resilience of these rescued animals and to recognise the profound sentience they possess, despite their troubled pasts.”
