The Sloth Bear Foundation is launched to protect and preserve the endangered sloth bears and their habitats from destruction. The foundation has a tie up with the Karnataka forest department and has its head office at Bellary in Karnataka, India. Bellary and its surrounding districts (Raichur, Koppal, Davanagere, etc.) is home to a large number of sloth bears which are under enormous pressure due to the loss of habitat and fragmentation.
