Meet Deva, our wily resident of 17 years at the Bannerghatta Bear Rescue Centre!
At the time of his rescue he was a timid, injured 5-year-old who was scared and hesitant to interact with other bears and our staff. It took him a long time to open up to us and now after years of love and care, Deva is completely at home. He is a food-driven bear and he makes it very evident as he has learnt how to handle doors! Come feeding time, we can see Deva opening the main enclosure gate to let himself into the feeding area while the other bears wait for their turn!
Deva is an extremely active bear but as age catches up with him, he prefers to enjoy solace as well. When not sleeping, you can find him roaming around his enclosure playing with his favorite coconuts.

The season’s first leopard cub reunion! 🐆
While harvesting their sugarcane, farmers in Tejewadi village in Pune district came across a 25-day-old female leopard cub nestled in their field. Having already been educated on the protocol to follow in such a situation, the farmers informed the Maharashtra Forest Department and Wildlife SOS of the same. Together, the teams set in motion to reunite the cub with her mother.
Before preparing the young cub for the reunion, a mandatory health checkup was conducted to ensure that she was healthy. She was then placed inside an aerated box and strategically placed in the same location where she was discovered. Fortunately, the leopard mother soon found her cub with the help of the scent trail left behind by Wildlife SOS. The reunion was carefully monitored by our teams from a safe distance.
Watch the video to see the heartwarming reunion!

If you see a happy-go-lucky sloth bear with a big, sticky smile, that's Odum, the ultimate peanut butter ball connoisseur! When the caregivers bring out the hanging ball enrichment, Odum does a little shuffle and instantly makes his way towards it. The sweetest things in life require a little bit of extra effort, but Odum doesn’t mind putting in the work to get to every last bit of peanut butter. And though he may not be the quickest bear in the world, he knows how to have a ball, literally!
If you would like to support his peanut butter obsessions, you can donate to us on our website!

Sloth bears are one of the eight bear species found across the world, primarily inhabiting parts of India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and presumably Bhutan. With their shaggy dark brown fur and long, curved claws, Sloth bears are undeniably the most unusual and unique bear species.
Despite their uniqueness, Sloth bears are misrepresented among the public, majorly based on myths and misconceptions. This World Bear Day, we bust some common myths about Sloth bears!

Just a clip of Laxmi going gaga over bananas, a perfect sight to beat your midweek slumps!
There is nothing that Laxmi loves more than munching on bananas, not just one or two but a bunch of them! While on her daily walks, during refreshing pool baths, or for steady cooperation in the toenail trimming sessions — bananas are the way to go.
Please consider becoming a part of Laxmi’s journey by sponsoring her and supporting her care at the Wildlife SOS Elephant Conservation and Care Centre, where she takes strong steps to recovery!

Sloth bears are one of the most unique and interesting bear species that you can find, with their shaggy fur, playful grunts and insect-based diets. Rose and Elvis, who arrived at the Agra Bear Rescue Facility in 2015 and 2016 respectively, have become a crucial part of the Wildlife SOS family with their daily escapades!
Though unsociable at first, Rose slowly adjusted to her new life after losing her paw to a hunting trap. Rose and Elvis soon joined forces to take down all the enrichments the bear care team set up. This formidable duo cooperates with each other to scoop up nuts and jaggery chunks placed in their hanging log enrichments at record speed. The bear caregivers are constantly on their toes, working hard with the volunteers to come up with more challenging enrichment ideas for the duo to play with.
If you would like to volunteer with us to make enrichments for Rose and Elvis, email us at volunteer@wildlifesos.org or head to our website to know more!

Meet Nina, our introverted resident who starts her day by scooping up some mud and taking a refreshing mud bath to cool off from the tropical heat. This is followed by a morning walk, and a nutritious breakfast of fresh greens and fruits which is hand fed to her by her caregiver. As the day progresses, the veterinarian pays her a visit to give her a medicated foot bath and some laser therapy sessions. She is wonderfully patient and cooperative throughout it all!
Afterwards, she spends her time exploring the lush greenery and going on a leisurely evening walk. Life at the centre may be routine, but for Nina, every moment is a reminder that she is safe and sound 🐘❤️
Please consider sponsoring Nina’s care and medical treatments!

In India, leopard cubs face a daunting and often fatal crisis. Many are abandoned by their mothers due to human-wildlife conflict, habitat loss and untimely deaths, and are left to fend for themselves in a hostile and dangerous environment. Shivani, a lucky survivor, was found in a sugarcane field and brought to the Manikdoh Leopard Rescue Centre for lifelong care, but for many cubs, their future only holds starvation, disease, and poaching.
The plight of these vulnerable cubs is a sobering reminder of the urgent need to protect and conserve India's rich wildlife heritage. You can support our efforts by inviting our team to hold educational awareness sessions in your school or institution. To know more, email us at education@wildlifesos.org
