Former England skipper Kevin Pieterson when not playing cricket focusses on spreading awareness regarding wildlife conservation for quite some time now.
His love for wildlife made him travel to India where he adopted an orphaned baby leopard in Raipur, Chhattisgarh.
During the visit, the ace cricketer also interacted with Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh, Dr. Raman Singh, to inform about the organization named ‘SORAI’ (Save our Rhinos Africa and India), which works for the protection and conservation of rare and extinct wild animals.
