Recovering guests at BRC

WRRC responds to reports of animals that are injured, orphaned, trapped, or displaced — often in cities or towns around Bengaluru. These can include birds, mammals, reptiles, and primates like macaques and lorises. Beyond rescue, WRRC also runs campaigns to stop cruelty and educate people through outreach about wildlife rights and conservation.

Monkeys

Monkeys are frequently displaced and injured due to the thinning boundary between forests and urban areas. They are common victims of road accidents and electrocution from power cables spanning their canopy paths. Furthermore, they suffer from dog bites and injuries sustained in territorial fights as their natural habitats shrink. Many are also displaced by human-wildlife conflict or are found in distress after being illegally kept as pets in unsuitable conditions.

Atrocities faced by kites

  •  Severe cuts from glass-coated manja
  •  Eating poisoned carcasses
  •  Plastic ingestion
  •  Electrocution from power lines
  •  Vehicle hits while feeding on roadkill

Urban environments face constant threats from human infrastructure. A primary cause of injury is the use of Chinese manja, a glass-coated string that causes deep, often fatal, lacerations to wings and limbs during flight. Additionally, these raptors frequently suffer from head trauma due to high-speed collisions with glass buildings and electrocution when they land on uninsulated high-voltage power lines.

Parakeets

Atrocities faced by Parakeets

  • Illegal pet trade trapping
  • Wings clipped to stop flying
  • Kept in tiny cages
  • Starvation and dehydration
  • Smuggling injuries

Parakeets are primarily affected by the illegal wildlife trade and the pet industry. It is a legal offense to keep indigenous parakeets as pets, yet many are still captured from the wild, leading to trafficking injuries and the discovery of abandoned chicks. Many birds are eventually surrendered after living in confined spaces that cause muscle atrophy and feather plucking, or they are found displaced after escaping or being released into environments where they can no longer fend for themselves.
