Wildlife Conservation International LIMITED, doing business as Forests For People, is a foreign-owned, non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov that focuses on endangered species and habitat conservation efforts, particularly in Southeast Asia. Based in Willagee, Western Australia, the organization specializes in wildlife conservation, veterinary research, and ecosystem protection programs. Through its federal grant awards, the organization provides specialized conservation services to the U.S. Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service, specifically targeting endangered species in Indonesia.

The organization has received multiple federal grant awards under the Asian Elephant Conservation Fund (CFDA 15.621), primarily focusing on protecting critically endangered Sumatran wildlife populations. Its grant-funded projects include establishing wildlife veterinary training programs at Syiah Kuala University, implementing elephant protection patrols in the Leuser Ecosystem, and developing innovative bioacoustic monitoring technologies like the ELOC system for detecting elephant movements. The grants, ranging from $518,973 to $615,919, support comprehensive conservation efforts such as mitigating human-elephant conflicts, preventing poaching, conducting wildlife population surveys, and building local capacity for wildlife veterinary services. These projects span multiple years, with completion dates ranging from 2025 to 2028, and consistently involve collaboration with local universities, government institutions, and non-government organizations in Sumatra to protect endangered species like elephants, tigers, and rhinos.
