Polar Bear Exploring Terrain

Our Story

Wildlife can feel distant even when it is woven into the places we live. HydWild was created to bring these connections into public view through film, learning, conversation and shared action. Our annual Film Festival gathers these strands in one place; our work continues through the year.

A city in conversation with the wild

Born in Hyderabad, HydWild connects people with wildlife through culture, conservation and rewilding. We believe a deeper public relationship with nature can lead to more thoughtful action.

Our purpose

To raise public consciousness about wildlife and conservation, and help people find meaningful ways to participate.

Culture

Films, stories and conversations can change what we notice and care about. Culture creates an accessible starting point for a deeper relationship with the wild.

Conservation

We seek to connect public interest with the people, knowledge and work that protect wildlife and habitats.

Rewilding

We encourage people to make room for native life where they live, study and work, with attention to local ecology and continuing care.
