Sting Operations


Wildlife trade sting operations are essential for disrupting illegal trafficking networks, protecting endangered species, and ensuring the survival of wildlife in their natural habitats.

Support Our Efforts to Save Pangolins: Funding Sting Operations

At Save Our Wildlife Fund (NPC), we are committed to the protection of endangered species, and pangolins—often referred to as the world’s most trafficked mammals—are at the forefront of our conservation efforts. These unique creatures are relentlessly hunted and trafficked for their scales, meat, and medicinal use, pushing them to the brink of extinction. To combat this alarming crisis, we are organizing sting operations aimed at dismantling illegal wildlife trafficking networks and rescuing pangolins from the clutches of poachers.

Why Are Sting Operations Critical?

Pangolins are one of the most trafficked animals globally, with their numbers declining rapidly due to illegal hunting and trade. The effectiveness of sting operations in combating wildlife crime cannot be overstated. These operations allow us to work undercover with local authorities to identify and apprehend poachers and traffickers involved in the illegal pangolin trade. However, swift and decisive action is often required to save these animals, and that requires funding.

How Your Support Makes a Difference

Every pangolin rescued from the illegal trade has a chance to be rehabilitated and returned to the wild where they belong. With your support, we can fund the critical resources needed for these sting operations, including:

  • Covert operations: Ensuring undercover agents and field teams are equipped to conduct sting operations effectively.
  • Transport and rescue costs: Covering the logistics involved in moving rescued pangolins to safe locations or rehabilitation centers.
  • Veterinary care: Providing the necessary medical treatment for injured or malnourished pangolins.
  • Legal action: Supporting efforts to prosecute those involved in illegal wildlife trade, ensuring they are held accountable.
Your generous donations will help us fund ongoing sting operations, expand our reach, and make a tangible impact on the fight against wildlife trafficking.

We invite you to contribute to this vital cause by donating directly to our sting operation fund. With your support, we can continue to work tirelessly to save pangolins and other endangered species.

Nature's guardians - Dogs on patrol


Did you know that dogs play an important part in protecting wildlife and stopping poachers in their tracks? Dogs help protect wildlife by deterring, detecting and sometimes even detaining poachers, they are definitely a ranger’s best friend! Anti-poaching teams of dogs and handlers, used alongside other protection measures, are proving extremely effective.
