To protect Tigers & their ecosystem ensuring the survival of thousands of species including humans that depend on this ecosystem.
At the Hyderabad Tiger Conservation Society, we are committed to preserving tiger populations and their habitats in Telangana & Andhra Pradesh. We work to enhance green cover and reduce human-wildlife conflicts through habitat restoration, community-led agroforestry and sustainable livelihood programs. Our collaborative efforts with local communities and the forest department focus on ecological balance, wildlife protection, and empowering frontline staff to safeguard the Tiger Reserves and its surrounding landscapes in Telangana & Andhra Pradesh. Our commitment to community welfare also extends to sanitation and infrastructure. We are actively involved in the construction of 120 toilets in Gundala under the Swachh Bharat Mission, improving public health and hygiene. In collaboration with the forest department, we have contributed to making the Peddaiah temple area a plastic- and alcohol-free zone, a move that not only benefits the environment but also fosters a cleaner, healthier community.
