If you’ve ever wanted to make a difference in wildlife conservation, Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) in Borivali is offering a unique chance to do so through its "Adopt a Captive Wild Animal" programme. This initiative invites you to adopt a wild animal such as a tiger, leopard, lion, rusty spotted cat, blue bull, or deer by providing financial support for its care and well-being.

Your financial support will help cover essential aspects such as enclosure maintenance, veterinary care, and enrichment activities, ensuring the well-being of these magnificent animals.

The adoption costs vary depending on the animal, ₹20,000 annually for a Spotted Deer, ₹30,000 for a Blue Bull, ₹50,000 for a Rusty Spotted Cat, and up to ₹3.1 lakh for a Lion or Tiger. This funding directly impacts their food, health, and overall care.

The funds from the adoption program will play a crucial role in the park's wildlife management efforts, supporting habitat restoration and conservation activities. Adopters will receive detailed updates about their chosen animal, including its background and current condition. They may even have the chance to visit the park and witness the positive impact of their support first-hand.

Notable figures like filmmaker Shyam Benegal and Minister Ramdas Athawale have previously participated in this initiative, underscoring its significance. By joining the program, you become a vital part of SGNP's mission to preserve and enhance the lives of these incredible creatures.
