श्याहगोश बनाम जंगली बिल्ली (सामुदायिक जागरूकता)
श्याहगोश और जंगली बिल्ली (जंगल कैट) आकार और रूप में समान होने के कारण अक्सर एक-दूसरे से भ्रमित कर दी जाती हैं। हालांकि, ये दोनों अलग-अलग प्रजातियों की जंगली बिल्लियाँ हैं, जिनकी शारीरिक बनावट, आवास और व्यवहार में स्पष्ट अंतर होता है। मानव-प्रधान क्षेत्रों में पाई जाने वाली वन्यजीव प्रजातियों के बारे में सही जानकारी और जागरूकता बढ़ाने के लिए सही पहचान अत्यंत आवश्यक है।
यह पोस्टर श्याहगोश और जंगली बिल्ली के बीच मुख्य अंतर को सरल और आसानी से पहचाने जा सकने वाले लक्षणों के माध्यम से दर्शाता है। इसे शहरी और ग्रामीण दोनों क्षेत्रों के लिए एक जागरूकता एवं सीखने के साधन के रूप में तैयार किया गया है।
इस पोस्टर का उपयोग गैर-सरकारी संगठन (NGOs), वन विभाग के कर्मचारी, शिक्षक और स्वयंसेवक गाँवों, स्कूलों, प्रकृति शिक्षा केंद्रों और शहरी क्षेत्रों में प्रदर्शन हेतु कर सकते हैं, जिससे वन्यजीव शिक्षा को बढ़ावा मिले और मानव-वन्यजीव सहअस्तित्व को प्रोत्साहित किया जा सके।
Caracal Vs Jungle Cat - Community Awareness
Caracals and Jungle Cats are often confused due to their similar size and appearance. However, they are two distinct wild cat species with different physical features, habitats, and behaviours. Correct identification is important for improving awareness and reducing misinformation about wildlife found in human-dominated landscapes.
This poster highlights the key differences between a Caracal and a Jungle Cat, helping viewers distinguish between the two through easily identifiable characteristics. It is designed as an awareness and learning tool for both urban and rural audiences.
The poster can be used by NGOs, Forest Department staff, educators, and volunteers for display in villages, schools, nature centres, and within city limits, to support wildlife education and informed coexistence.

This poster aims to provide a standard protocol to be followed incase of a snakebite, the Do’s and Don’ts to be adhered to. And the best treatment is to get to the hospital immediately without wasting time to identifying the snake.

Pandemic & Pardhi, as a project started with a thought, “How are tribal communities surviving through this pandemic?” Supported by the National Geographic Society Emergency Grant, this thought evolved into a storytelling exploration project. LWF, an organisation working with tribes throughout central India became a bridge connecting the director and National Geographic Explorer, Ishan Sharma, to the Pardhis of Panna and Baigas of Kanha. The Pardhi community was infamous for its hunting traditions. But through intervention by the government and LWF, they have moved away from the jungle and practice alternative sources of livelihood. Pandemic & Pardhi, depicts the reality of tribes who live on the edges of forests and how the pandemic has impacted their livelihoods.
Walk with the Pardhis
‘Walk with the Pardhis’ an initiative undertaken by Last Wilderness Foundation in association with Taj Safaris and Management of Panna Tiger Reserve, is an alternative source of livelihood for the Pardhi community members, by channelizing the age old knowledge of the forest and the skills of identifying animal tracks and signs.
Story behind the Baiga Jewellery
Baigas are a forest dwelling tribe that live in the jungles on Central India. In order to reduce their dependency on the forest, an attempt has been made to introduce them to an alternate source of livelihood. Last Wilderness Foundation (LWF) works closely with the forest department and communities to reduce human-wildlife conflict near tiger reserves. In our work with this tribe, we’ve explored a sustainable source of living using an already existing skill set of the tribe – Jewellery Making.
Tiger Song - How to avoid human-tiger conflict (in Hindi)
People living in the buffer zones of Tiger Reserves co-exist with tigers. Sometimes there are conflict situations where human or tiger lives could be lost. This song is one way to spread awareness amongst these villagers on what precautionary measures can be taken to protect themselves in order to avoid any such conflicts. To help spread awareness and reduce man-animal conflicts, please feel free to screen this video at suitable locations.
Living with Tigers - A glimpse
In 2011 the LWF Team embarked on a journey to gain an insight into the lives of people who live in proximity to the tiger reserve and often alongside the tiger. This then is one such glimpse into the hardships they encounter, their dependency on the forest, conflict with the tiger, livelihood and the lives they lead as people of the forest.
Tigers in the backyard
Tigers and man have been existing together for many years, but the need for space and sharing of resources has led to a slight imbalance, thereby frequenting the conflict scenario between the two. However, the situation on ground is not all grim. Communication and interaction with the villagers has helped form an invisible bridge and a relatively visible communication channel between the Forest department and villagers. This initiative started by LWF 4 years ago has led to a smoother management of conflict situations in Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve. Apart from conservation outreach, LWF also engages in training programmes for the Forest Department to help equip them with the necessary management skills.

A first time ever in the forest for these students, the idea was to help them connect with nature based purely on touch, calls and hearing. This video is an attempt to showcase a few glimpses of the time spent with the students.
Village Kids Awareness programme
The Village Kids’ Awareness Programme is conducted by LWF in the villages surrounding the tiger reserves. This programme helps the students to appreciate and understand the forest and the need to save them. Through this programme, each child starts relating their lives to the forest and it’s denizens, thus creating a larger and larger group of protectors through the years!
