OUR FIGHT FOR WILDLIFE

FRONTLINE CONSERVATION

Unlike typical ‘donate and forget’ charities, we are physically on the ground. Our Ranger teams risk their lives every day to combat poachers and protect wildlife.

Our mission is simple and urgent: bring our professional law enforcement model to the world’s most vulnerable landscapes, before they are lost forever. The world's biodiversity is being lost at an alarming rate - we partner with local wildlife authorities to design and implement operations that restore the most at-risk habitats on the brink of collapse.

A GLOBAL TRAGEDY

OUR WORLD IS EXPERIENCING AN UNPRECIDENTED
LOSS OF WILDLIFE

Wildlife Population Decline

Global Wildlife Population down 69%

There has been a 69% reduction in global wildlife populations since 1970.

African Wildlife Population down 76%

Wildlife populations in Africa have dropped by 76% between 1970 and 2020, reflecting severe threats to biodiversity.

Lion Populations down 43%

African lion populations have fallen by 43% over the last 25 years due to habitat loss and poaching.

30% of African Elephants lost in 7 years

Poaching reduced the population of African savanna elephants by 30% between 2007 and 2014. 20,000 African elephants are killed each year.

Illegal Wildlife Trade

$7-23 Billion black market

The illegal wildlife trade is estimated to be worth between $7 billion and $23 billion annually.

2.5 million Pangolins poached annually

Pangolins are the most trafficked mammals in the world, accounting for 20% of all illegal wildlife trade. It's estimated 1 is killed every 3 minutes.

Smuggled to East Asia

China and Vietnam are major consumers of African ivory, rhino horn, and pangolin scales.

Corruption

Without effective governance, corruption incentivises the illegal wildlife trade and provides safe passage for poachers and smugglers.

GLOBAL HABITAT CRISIS

Protected Areas under threat

30% of protected areas are at risk of conversion to agriculture and urban development.

Deforestation

Worldwide, 10 million hectares of forest are lost annually due to agricultural expansion & logging. Nearly half of that deforestation is in Africa.

African Habitats

African savannahs are shrinking by 2% every year due to agricultural and urban expansion.

Climate Change

Land use change and deforestation contribute roughly 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions, exacerbating climate change and biodiversity loss.

WE ARE NATURE'S
LAST LINE OF DEFENCE

WILDLIFE DOESN'T NEED MORE REPORTS OR CONFERENCES. IT NEEDS ACTION!

We partner with governments to give wildlife and wilderness the military-strength defence it deserves. We take on the toughest parks facing imminent collapse due to severe poaching, inadequate resources, and failed management.

By implementing effective law enforcement, restoring essential infrastructure, and empowering local communities, we rapidly transform these vulnerable areas into vital safe havens for wildlife. Every dollar donated by our supporters goes directly to our field operations.
