Connecting distress to real help
Every Life Deserves a Lifeline.
AASRO helps people report animals in distress and connects those reports with NGOs, veterinarians, authorised wildlife responders and rescue organisations who may be able to help.
How AASRO works
1. Report
Share what you see: the animal, its condition, a photo and the location.
2. Connect
AASRO aims to route the report to nearby NGOs, vets or authorised responders who may be able to help.
3. Respond
Partners decide whether and how they can respond. You can follow updates with a case reference.
Beyond dogs and cats
AASRO aims to support the full range of animals people encounter in distress.
Dogs
Injured, sick or trapped street and community dogs.
Cats
Cats in distress, injured or stuck in unsafe places.
Cattle
Cows, buffaloes and bulls injured on roads or abandoned.
Birds
Injured birds, including those hurt by kite strings.
Working animals
Horses, donkeys and mules in poor condition.
Other animals
Goats, sheep and other animals needing care.
Wildlife needs authorised responders
Snakes, monkeys, deer and other wild animals are protected by law. Wildlife cases must be directed to the forest department or authorised wildlife responders. Please do not attempt to handle wild animals yourself.
Rescue partners make help possible
NGOs, veterinarians, independent rescuers and animal shelters are the ones who respond on the ground. AASRO's role is coordination: helping the right report reach the right people, with clear information.
- — Receive reports relevant to your service area and capabilities
- — Decide which cases you can take on
- — Share status updates so reporters know what is happening
- — Collaborate with other responders on complex cases
An honest note
Submitting a report does not guarantee immediate rescue. Partner availability, distance and resources vary. AASRO is not an emergency service. If an animal is in immediate danger, also contact a local vet or rescue group directly.
