Protect lions in Namibia from retaliatory killings

Organization information

Kevin Richardson Foundation NPC

Location: Pretoria, South Africa

Summary

The Kevin Richardson Foundation, in partnership with the Namibian Lion Trust, is working towards reducing human-wildlife conflict in the Kunene region of Namibia. By collaring lions and training locals to become lion guards, both local communities and their livestock, as well as wild lions, are protected. The project will supply predator-proof bomas for livestock which secures the livelihoods of villages. Being a flagship species, healthy lion populations result in overall ecosystem health.
