Research that puts animals first.
Campus — Research
Student research, expert perspectives, and field observations — all in one place.
OUR GOAL
To achieve wildlife conservation, captive care, and welfare milestones through education and research.
The Research and Development Department at LSeT works toward international-standard outcomes in animal care and management — through operational excellence and deep sensitization to the needs of every species we work with.
OUR OBJECTIVES
- 01
Prioritise animal conservation in all research and be a torchbearer in the field through strategic execution in animal care and management.
- 02
Develop species-specific research outcomes and recommendations that aid species in combating both natural crises and anthropic disturbances.
- 03
Provide the most efficient zoo care and management human resource to Indian and international zoos, farms, rural animals, and rescue operations.
RESEARCH THEMES
Six areas. One mission.
Collaboration
- We are open for Collaborations with universities, research institutions, conservation organisations, and government agencies.
- Facilitate joint research projects, publications, and knowledge exchange programmes.
CURRENT PROJECTS
What we're working on right now.
Ecological Realism–Driven Breeding Success of the Pygmy Marmoset in Captivity
This study documents a five-year breeding success of the pygmy marmoset (Cebuella niveiventris) achieved through habitat-based husbandry interventions in a captive setting.
Evaluating the Impact of Auditory Enrichment on the Welfare and Natural Behaviour of Meerkats
Evaluating the Impact of Auditory Enrichment on the Welfare and Natural Behaviour of Meerkats. For meerkats, a highly social and vocal species, acoustic communication is vital for survival, providing information on individual identity, social status, and predator threats
