Project Survival is excited to begin working with Yaguara Panama and Ricardo Moreno. Ricardo is trying to capture and radio collar the 1st jaguar in Panama. Understanding the carnivores of Panama becomes a key element of Central America ecology.
We work to generate scientific information through population studies using camera traps and telemetry with GPS collars, allowing us to see and study the movements of jaguars, wild cats and other animals. This way we become familiar with those who live in each area and their habits, such as how far they travel or what time they try to hunt.
We maintain the most complete and up-to-date database of terrestrial mammals in Panama, with information from 30 study sites including 655 specific sites with camera traps and 40,234 trap nights in the last 5 years, which have allowed the creation of more than 50 scientific publications.
Society for the Preservation of Endangered Carnivores and their International Ecological Study, is committed to the development and implementation of holistic, integrative and impactful projects and activities to further the conservation of the world’s carnivores.
Our goals and objectives are best achieved through the integration of diverse components and elements where and when needed, including: innovative science and research, education through mentorship and outreach, building institutional capacity, developing and empowering local communities, incorporating cultural perspectives and contexts, cultivating community leadership, technological and socio-economic innovations, international markets, conservation psychology and social marketing, policy development, and long-term strategic planning.
We believe that the conservation restoration of many wild places and big landscapes begins and ends with its carnivore communities, and we aim to integrate the needs of people and carnivores for a sustainable future.
Irbis Mongolia is a NGO dedicated for research and conservation of endangered cats in Mongolia and adjacent territory.
If you are familiar with cheetahs, most people have heard of the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Namibia. Very few cheetah projects are being conducted outside the realm of the good work done in Namibia.
CHEETAH CONSERVATION BOTSWANA aims to preserve the nation’s cheetah population through scientific research, community outreach and education, working with rural communities to promote coexistence with Botswana’s rich diversity of predator species.
Dr. Morato is one of the leading experts in the world, working with jaguars. He is the first person to produce embryos from wild jaguar semen. This work becomes important if we are going to be able to reintroduce captive cat genes back into wild populations.
Dr. Morato and his wife Dr. Rose Gasparini work for an organization call Pro-Carnivoros, that helps sets policies for all carnivores in the country of Brazil.
Dr. Jackson was the first person to radio collar and track snow leopards in the early 1970’s. He is considered the premier expert in the world in snow leopard research.
Both Rod and Darla work in a very practical way to address the problems snow leopards face with humans. By working to solve conflicts between people and snow leopards, the snow leopards have a far better chance of survival. Snow Leopard Conservancy.
Believing that an education holds the key to a healthy adulthood; the Wana Duma Children’s Project is dedicated to removing barriers that children in Kenya and elsewhere in the world encounter which impede their access to education.
Mara Meru Cheetah Project aims to secure habitats for the long-term survival of cheetahs and their ecosystems through multi-disciplined and integrated scientific research, community outreach and education programs.
The mission of Fishing Cat Conservancy is to promote the long-term survival of fishing cats in the wild through public awareness and education, community-based conservation, and mitigation of human-wild cat conflicts throughout their range.
Soysambu works to sustain wildlife species, indigenous livestock and habitat; supports local conservation initiatives; facilitates neighboring development and educates the community in the value of flora and fauna in order to preserve the Rift Valley Ecosystem for future generations.
The primary goal of the Cheetah Outreach Trust is the conservation and promotion of the co-existence of the free roaming cheetah in South Africa that live on farmland areas in South Africa. From a global estimated 100,000 cheetahs at the turn of the 20th century the population is currently estimated to be 6674.
Shrinking habitat, dwindling of natural prey, and conflict with human activities are the primary causes of these decreasing numbers. There are estimated to be 1,326 cheetahs in South Africa of which approximately 500 are free roaming cheetah living on farmlands in the northern part of the country. This specific population is the focus of our work. We understand the complexity and issues involving cheetah conservation in these farmland areas due to years of working hand in hand with farming communities. We are proud of our continuing efforts over the past 20 years to protect these cheetah on South African farmlands.
The Cheetah Outreach Trust through working with the communities in these areas has developed initiatives that reduce and manage the human-wildlife conflict between farmers and cheetah. In addition, the Cheetah Outreach Trust has a well regarded curriculum-linked educational program for learners operating at the Cheetah Outreach facility in the Cape Town area. The Cheetah Outreach Trust works with academic institutions locally as well as internationally to initiate research projects focused on the conservation of cheetah on farmland areas in South Africa.
