I'm Angela Deville - a commercial helicopter pilot, flight instructor, entrepreneur, and animal rights advocate. For years, I soared above cities and coastlines, with a bird's eye view, helping others achieve their dreams in business and aviation. But beneath the roar of rotors and the rhythm of business, a deeper calling stirred: the silent voices of exotic cats and wild animals in need of protection.

About HeloCougar​

​

After building a successful career in aviation and business consulting, I felt a shift. My soul pulled me toward something more instinctual: a life dedicated to wildlife rescue, sanctuary development, and education. HeloCougar was born as a bridge between flight and rescue, business and aviation, power and compassion, uniting my expertise with my mission to protect those who cannot speak. 
 

 

​The HALO Foundation

HALO - Helping Animals Left Orphaned - is the nonprofit vision that grew from this calling.

Our Mission:

To ensure that no companion animal is left without care in the event of death, incapacity, or abandonment of their guardian. 

​

What We Do:

HALO provides:

• Emergency intake & rehoming - for animals in urgent need of safe placement

• Lifelong sanctuary services - for both domestic and exotic companions

• Specialized exotic cat care - a private sanctuary for servals, caracals, savannahs, and others who may not otherwise be rehomed.

• Partnerships with conservation groups, policymakers and other agencies - working together to safeguard biodiversity and ethical coexistence

• Community outreach and education - raising awareness about responsible pet huardianship and the importance of protecting wildlife.​
   

Why It Matters:

In a world where sanctuaries face rising costs, limited support, and growing regulatory constraints, HALO stands as a beacon of hope, offering sustainable solutions and advocacy for both animals and the people who care for them. 

​​

Our Purpose:

Through HeloCougar and the HALO Foundation, I stand for fierce, unapologetic purpose: to empower people and protect animals.  This work isn't only about rescue, it is about rebirth, healing, and returning to the wild parts of ourselves.​
