From rescuing tiny bats to majestic elephants, Dr. Yashaswi Naravi and Dr. Meghana Pemmaiah are redefining the way we care for wildlife. This veterinarian couple teams up with the Karnataka Forest Department in Mangaluru to reduce human-animal conflict in the region.

Yashaswi specialises in rescuing large mammals like leopards, while Meghana focuses on birds and reptiles. Together, they form a good team, performing surgeries and providing critical care to ensure wildlife can return to their natural habitats.

Their dream? To establish their own wildlife treatment and rehabilitation center, exclusively for wild animals.
