Event Information
Description
Join us for this intimate evening of sacred music to honor and conserve the sacred groves of wild India, home of the majestic tiger.
This gathering is a benefit in support of Dr. Ullas Karanth's conservation work in the remaining forests of India. Dr. Karanth is widely respected as India's preeminent tiger conservationist and biologist. The evening is hosted by Saving Wild Tigers, abc Carpet & Home and the Wildlife Conservation Society.
Your donation goes directly toward the field protection of India's forest, the intricate ecosystem that is the home of the tiger. It is amazing and immensely hopeful that India, the most densely populated country in the world, continues to have viable shelter for wildlife and a wild tiger population that can still improve, despite ongoing habitat destruction and poaching.
