Conservation

At Kanana Conservation, we believe that lasting conservation solutions are rooted in rigorous scientific research. Our work spans diverse ecosystems and species, focusing on understanding species behavior, ecological interactions, habitat dynamics, and conservation challenges in the Western Ghats.

Through field-based studies, long-term ecological monitoring, and species-specific research, we generate data that informs conservation policies, guides habitat restoration efforts, and supports sustainable wildlife management. By integrating innovative methodologies and collaborative approaches, we aim to bridge the gap between science and conservation action.

Research Focus

By grounding our work in real-world challenges and delivering actionable, evidence-based solutions, our research has informed conservation policies, shaped public perception, and strengthened advocacy for wildlife protection across the Western Ghats.

Primates in the Western Ghats, including lion-tailed macaques, bonnet macaques, and langurs, are increasingly navigating human-altered landscapes. Our research explores how habitat fragmentation, resource availability, and human activities influence their behaviour, stress levels, and social structures.

Collaborate With Us

At Kanana Wildlife Conservation, we believe that meaningful conservation is built on collaboration. Whether you’re a scientist seeking research opportunities, a student eager to gain field experience, a conservationist working to protect biodiversity, or a wildlife enthusiast passionate about making a difference, we welcome you to join us. Our work thrives on interdisciplinary partnerships that combine scientific innovation, field expertise, and community engagement to drive impactful conservation action.

OUR MISSION

At Kanana Wildlife Conservation, our mission is to protect the biodiversity of the Western Ghats through scientific research, conservation action, and community engagement. We use innovative technologies to study wildlife behavior, species interactions, and habitat dynamics, especially in human-impacted areas. Our initiatives focus on protecting endangered species and restoring critical ecosystems like Myristica swamps and rainforests. By involving local communities through education and awareness, we promote coexistence between people and wildlife. We believe true conservation happens when science and society work together to create lasting impact, ensuring that both nature and humanity can thrive for generations to come.

OUR APPROACH

We work to conserve the diverse life forms of the Western Ghats, including endangered and endemic species of birds, primates, amphibians, reptiles, insects, and plants, ensuring the protection of their natural habitats.

We use advanced technologies to study species interactions, develop ecological models, and assess habitat dynamics and the impacts of climate change. Additionally, molecular research aids in understanding genetic diversity, population health, and conservation priorities for threatened species.

We believe conservation thrives when people are part of the solution. Kanana actively involves citizen scientists, students, researchers, and local communities in hands-on conservation initiatives and educational programs.
