No degree. No formal training. Just a heart that couldn’t look away.

That’s how Mr. Rohit’s journey into wildlife conservation began — no zoology textbooks, no veterinary certificates. Just curiosity that wouldn’t quit, compassion that wouldn’t switch off, and the patience to learn from every creature that needed help.

In this episode, he opens up about the years of trial, error, quiet observation, and hands-on learning that shaped the person — and the protector — he is today.

Because saving a life doesn’t ask for your qualifications.

It asks for your willingness to show up. Again and again. 🌿🐾

Our Smallest “Rescue” Ever 🐢

Meet the tiniest turtle we have ever rescued — a newborn Indian Flap-shelled Turtle (Lissemys punctata), measuring just 3.5 cm!

This little one was found right in the middle of a road in a residential area near Sanganer. The caller rescued it from the road, brought it home and then contacted us.

Honestly, we didn’t want to “rescue” this one at all. Our first thought was simply to put it back into the wild.

But by the time we received it, it was already dark, and the water had receded from the place where it was found. Finding the right and safe release site for this tiny newbie became a challenge in itself.

A few cool facts about this tiny creature:

• It has just emerged from an egg — and at 3.5 cm, it is unbelievably tiny.
• Flap-shelled turtles lay their eggs in soil, often away from the water.
• Their incubation period is surprisingly variable — published records range from about 119 to 225 days, with other observations extending to around 235 days.
• Temperature, humidity, soil type, nest depth and shade can all influence how long the little turtle remains inside its egg.
• And after spending months hidden underground, this tiny life begins its journey almost entirely on its own.

From a busy residential road to a safe natural home — our smallest rescue deserves the biggest chance at survival. 🐢

Found a baby bird on the ground? Don’t panic — and don’t scoop it up just yet. 🐣Every year during Baby Bird Season, well...

Found a baby bird on the ground? Don’t panic — and don’t scoop it up just yet. 🐣

Every year during Baby Bird Season, well-meaning people “rescue” birds that were never in danger — and end up separating healthy chicks from parents who were watching from just a few feet away.

So before you act, ask this first: Does it have feathers?

🪶 If it’s feathered and hopping around — it’s a fledgling, not an orphan. This is normal! Parent birds are usually nearby, still feeding it. The best help is no help — keep pets and people away, and let nature do its job.

🐤 If it’s featherless, or has only patchy fuzz — it’s a nestling, and it likely did fall by accident. Gently place it back in its nest if you can find it. No nest in sight? A small basket lined with tissue, hung near where it fell, works as a substitute.

🩹 If it’s injured, cold, or in real danger (near a cat, on a busy road, visibly hurt) — that’s when it’s time to call in trained help. Don’t feed it. Don’t give it water. Don’t keep it overnight “to see how it does.”

📞 Call us. Every hour counts, and we’re trained to know exactly what that bird needs — we’d rather you call and it turns out fine, than not call and it doesn’t.

Save this post. You’ll probably need it this season. 🌿🐦

Owls are revered as the Vaahak (vehicle) of Goddess Lakshmi. Yet every year, many are trapped, traded, and abused because of superstition—especially around festivals like Diwali.

How could harming Goddess Lakshmi’s own vehicle ever bring prosperity?

This International Owl’s Day, we’re sharing the side of the story that rarely gets seen.

Over the years, Raksha has rescued more than 620 owls and successfully released over 350 back into the wild. Most of those releases happened quietly, under the cover of darkness, exactly when these nocturnal birds have the best chance of survival. No cameras. No applause. Just a second chance at life.

Every owl belongs in the wild—not in a cage, not as a prop for rituals, and never as a pet.

🦉 600+ rescued | 350+ released | Countless lives protected

If you witness owl trapping, illegal trade, captivity, or find an injured owl, inform the Rajasthan Forest Department immediately or call Raksha’s Wildlife Rescue Helpline at 9828500065.

Save this number. Share it with your family and friends. One phone call could save an owl’s life.

सोसाइटी में खड़ी साइकिलों के पीछे बैठा था भारत का सबसे ज़हरीला साँप… किसी को भनक तक नहीं थी।

हर साँप चलाकार हमला नहीं करता… लेकिन डर और दूरी—दोनों ज़रूरी हैं।

एक फ़ोन कॉल, एक कोबरा, और एक सुरक्षित रेस्क्यू। यही है रक्षा

अगर आपके घर, सोसाइटी या आसपास कहीं भी साँप दिखाई दे, तो उसे छेड़ने की कोशिश न करें।

Ever wondered why these prickly burrs cling so tightly to your clothes after a walk in the wild?

Meet Cenchrus biflorus, commonly known as sandbur. Its spiny, yellowish burrs aren’t just a nuisance—they’re nature’s ingenious way of spreading seeds.

This process is called epizoochory, where seeds hitch a ride on the outside of animals (or unsuspecting humans!). The burrs latch onto fur, feathers, or clothing, travel long distances, and eventually fall off, giving the plant a chance to grow in a new location.

While Cenchrus biflorus is remarkably adapted for survival, it is also known as an invasive w**d in many regions. Its sharp burrs can be painful to step on, reduce grazing quality, and outcompete native vegetation.

What feels like an annoying sticker on your socks is actually a brilliant evolutionary strategy—one that has helped this plant spread across landscapes for generations.

🌿 Nature always has a reason. Sometimes, it’s hiding in the tiniest hitchhiker.

Some acts of kindness ask for nothing in return.

Not applause. Not recognition. Just the hope that one day, someone—human or wild—will live a better life because you chose to care.

Today, we planted more than saplings. We planted hope, resilience, and a promise to the future.

If this reel moves you, don’t stop at watching. Plant a tree. Care for it. Let your compassion take root. 🌱💚 Special thanks Rajasthan Forest department and Range Forest Officer Mr Raghuvendra Singh for his kind support and guidance, BLOSSOM for supporting all Saplings , IIS (Deemed to be University)- Formerly ICG for providing Volunteers for the plantation

A forest is never built in a day—but every forest begins with a single step.

Today, Raksha Jaipur proudly joined hands with the Rajasthan Forest Department, Blossoms Ladies Group, and IIS (Deemed to be University) to plant a multi-layer forest of 12 native fruit-bearing tree species.

This isn’t just about adding more trees to the landscape. It’s about creating an ecosystem that provides food, shelter, and nesting spaces for birds and other wildlife. A forest where every tree has a purpose, and every sapling brings us one step closer to a healthier, more vibrant future.

Conservation isn’t only about protecting wildlife today—it’s about ensuring they always have a place to call home tomorrow.

Here’s to growing forests, restoring habitats, and leaving behind a greener world than we inherited. 🌿💚

जयपुर से हुआ भारतीय ग्रिफिन वल्चर का सफल रेस्क्यू एवं रिलीज़!

वन विभाग, रक्षा संस्थान, वाइल्डलाइफ वेट्स इंटरनेशनल एवं जयपुर एयरपोर्ट अथॉरिटी के संयुक्त प्रयासों से एक युवा भारतीय ग्रिफिन वल्चर का सफल उपचार कर उसे उसके प्राकृतिक आवास में सुरक्षित वापस छोड़ दिया गया। 🌿

खराब मौसम और थर्मल न मिलने के कारण यह गिद्ध शहर में भटक गया था। समय पर रेस्क्यू, उपचार और देखभाल ने इसे फिर से खुले आसमान की उड़ान दी। 💚

यदि आपको कोई गिद्ध दिखाई दे, तो उसे घेरें नहीं और न ही परेशान करें। हो सकता है वह केवल आराम कर रहा हो या उड़ान के लिए सही थर्मल का इंतज़ार कर रहा हो।

📞 आवश्यकता होने पर तुरंत राजस्थान वन विभाग या रक्षा बर्ड हेल्पलाइन से संपर्क करें।

हर रेस्क्यू एक जीवन बचाता है। हर जागरूक नागरिक प्रकृति का साथी है। 🦅💚
