WPSI’s Legal Programme has a two-pronged approach on wildlife court cases

Support for Public Prosecutors: Under Indian law, only the State is authorised to prosecute criminals so WPSI provides Public Prosecutors with assistance. Currently, we are following over 100 cases in trial courts across the country. Most of the alleged crimes are connected with the tiger and other endangered species.

WPSI Litigations: WPSI files cases in State High Courts and the Supreme Court of India on a wide variety of conservation issues including habitat protection and the implementation of endangered animal protection laws.
