I’m Srikanth Mannepuri, a Wildlife Conservationist, Photographer, and Filmmaker from Andhra Pradesh, India. With a background in Biotechnology, my journey shifted from scientific writing to visual storytelling—using photography and film to highlight the beauty and urgency of protecting unique wildlife like fishing cats and smooth-coated otters in my home state. Volunteering with the Andhra Pradesh Forest Department and collaborating with conservation organizations, my work has been showcased internationally and featured in platforms like National Geographic, Forbes, and BBC. I believe in the power of engaging local communities and youth, using visuals and education to inspire meaningful conservation action for a sustainable future.
