    WILD SURVIVORS 

    Our aim is best captured by our mission statement: putting an end to 'human-elephant conflict' by delivering sustainable initiatives which place community welfare at the heart of wildlife conservation. We implement long-term coexistence strategies between people and elephants, providing tools in wildlife technology with BuzzBox, and comprehensive wildlife corridor and forest protection programmes.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received
    • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
    • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
