Help Us Build a Sanctuary for Yala's Wildlife

Every life has a right to thrive. Join us in creating Sri Lanka's first dedicated wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center.

A Lifeline for Sri Lanka's Wild Heart

Yala National Park is a haven for magnificent creatures, but every day, animals are injured or displaced due to human-wildlife conflict, accidents, and habitat loss. Currently, there is no dedicated, state-of-the-art facility to provide these animals with the urgent care they need. We are here to change that.

The Wild Lanka Trust is a community-driven company founded on a love for this land and its inhabitants. Our mission is to build a professional wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center near Yala. We are proving that a sustainable business can be the engine for lasting, positive change.
