Wildlife Rescue & Conservation Photography in Mumbai

My work in wildlife rescue and photography isn’t just about the 'catch and release.' It is about changing how we see our city's wild neighbors. Whether I am crawling into a tight space to retrieve a baby Indian Rock Python or documenting the plight of marine life along our shores, the goal is always the same: to show that fear is usually born from a lack of understanding.

Why Professional Rescue Matters

When an animal is in a space it shouldn't be—a car engine, a drainage pipe, or a garden—the risk is high for everyone involved. I use professional stainless steel equipment to minimize stress on the animal, preventing defensive bites or injury. My protocols are aligned with Forest Department guidelines, ensuring that every creature, from the venomous Cobra to the harmless Buff-striped Keelback, is released into a safe, natural habitat away from human settlements.

Beyond the Rescue

During peak seasons, such as Makar Sankranti, the threat to our birds from glass-coated manja is severe. I work with local fire brigades and authorities to ensure injured birds receive the care they need to recover. I also offer property wildlife audits for residential complexes. These visits help identify entry points and rodent attractants that invite snakes, allowing us to proactively reduce conflict rather than just reacting to it.
