Conservation Through Community: The Greetoe Approach

At Greetoe Wildlife Resort, conservation extends beyond protected boundaries into
surrounding communities. Our pioneering approach recognizes that sustainable wildlife
preservation depends on human communities thriving alongside nature.
In villages bordering Panna, Bandhavgarh, Kanha, and Sanjay Dubri, we’ve implemented
community-based tourism initiatives where locals directly benefit from conservation.
Former poachers now lead our tracking experiences, applying their unparalleled
knowledge of animal movement patterns toward protection rather than exploitation.
Our kitchens source ingredients exclusively from organic farms within a 30-kilometer
radius, creating economic incentives for wildlife-friendly agriculture. Traditional crops
requiring less water and no pesticides reduce human-wildlife conflict while preserving
indigenous food heritage.


Particularly revolutionary is our artisan program, where tribal communities create
exquisite nature-inspired crafts from sustainable materials. Guests participate in
workshops learning these techniques, with proceeds supporting community
development and habitat restoration projects.
Local schools receive support for conservation education, producing a generation of
young conservation ambassadors. Many eventually join our team as naturalists,
continuing the cycle of protection through authentic connection.
When you choose Greetoe, you’re not merely observing wildlife but actively participating
in an innovative conservation model recognized internationally for successfully
balancing ecosystem health with human prosperity
