Situated amidst the lush greenery of Reliance’s Jamnagar Refinery Complex in Gujarat, the Vantara ecosystem emerges as a sanctuary dedicated to wildlife conservation. Spanning 3,000 acres, this expansive sanctuary comprises the Elephant Centre and the Green Zoological Rescue & Rehabilitation Centre, offering refuge to over 200 rescued elephants and more than 2,000 animals across 43 species. Among the beneficiaries of this compassionate endeavor is Deva, a nine-year-old leopard whose recovery from grievous wounds symbolizes the unwavering commitment of the Vantara team.
