Poaching
Africa is home to the world's most iconic wildlife, but illegal poaching might destroy it forever.
Endangered animals are slaughtered so that a single body part - like tusks, pelt, or bones - can be illegally sold for huge sums of money.
The vast majority of poaching is caused by organized crime syndicates that use high-powered technology and weaponry to track and kill many animals at once without being detected.
At current poaching rates, elephants, rhinos, and other iconic African wildlife may be gone within our lifetime.
Our goal is to protect wildlife, conserve land, and educate the public.
