CSR Initiative Adopts Tiger at Bannerghatta Biological Park (BBP)

Prestige Group, a leading real estate developer in India, is proud to announce the adoption of two male tiger cubs at Bannerghatta Biological Park (BBP). The cubs have been named Simba and Sheru, and Prestige will support their care for the next five years. This initiative underscores the Group’s commitment to wildlife conservation, ecological balance, and raising public awareness for biodiversity protection.

This adoption extends Prestige’s environmental stewardship into species conservation. The support will cover nutrition, veterinary care, habitat enrichment, and educational outreach programs, ensuring the cubs thrive under a structured, humane framework.

Nirbhay Lumde, Senior Vice President (ESG & sustainability), Prestige Group, said, “Our responsibility to the environment begins with what we build and extends to how we nurture the world around us. With Simba and Sheru, we aim to raise awareness of coexistence and strengthen collective efforts to protect natural heritage. This adoption is symbolic of how every small step can strengthen our collective commitment to conservation.”

“We are deeply grateful to Prestige Estates Projects Limited for their support in adopting and naming Simba and Sheru. The funds raised through our Animal Adoption Programme will be directed toward feed, veterinary care and enrichment for our animals, reinforcing the vital link between conservation and community participation. We thank all wildlife enthusiasts, media partners and citizens who help spread our message. Together, we invite every individual to become part of the BBP family and contribute to wildlife protection,” said A V Surya Sen IFS, Deputy Conservator of Forests & Executive Director, Bannerghatta Biological Park.

BBP has been instrumental in conservation education, species rehabilitation, and public engagement. Prestige’s partnership will amplify these roles, especially by supporting awareness campaigns targeted at schoolchildren, visitors, and local communities, highlighting the urgent need for coexistence and biodiversity care.

The tiger adoption is part of a broader ecological vision. Over recent years, Prestige has initiated large-scale native tree planting, lake rejuvenation, and maintenance of urban park and road infrastructure. While transformational design and energy efficiency define its built environment strategy, wildlife conservation brings a more holistic, ecosystem-level dimension to its sustainability approach.

Through this adoption, Prestige aims to make a meaningful contribution to national wildlife protection efforts and serve as an example of responsible corporate citizenship. As Simba and Sheru grow under care, their stories will become living symbols of how development and nature can coexist harmoniously.
