Conservation Activities
By working with leading conservation partners it is possible to offer my guests exclusive wildlife experiences on the frontlines of conservation. By Sponsoring a Wildlife Conservation Activity, you are given the opportunity to work alongside rangers in the field. Please enquire through the contact form.
SPONSOR A RHINO NOTCHING MISSION
Ear-notchings are preformed for rhino monitoring & DNA collection. It ensures that rangers can accurately identify & report daily.
Sadly the illegal killing of wildlife continues to plague the continent, putting immense pressure on conservancies & other wildlife areas with rhino (& elephant) populations. As an exception however, Lewa's efforts in identifying individual rhinos, gathering of intelligence, increased use of technology, staff motivation & most importantly, greater investment to our neighbouring communities paid off & the conservancy has not lost a rhino in four years.
By sponsoring a Rhino Ear-Notching not only do you get to experience a ‘once in a lifetime’ event, but you also contribute to the conservation, & furthered protection, of these incredible creatures.
SPONSOR A LION COLLARING MISSION
Using lion collaring technology to help restore coexistence, and provide a basis for ongoing lion research to reduce human-lion conflict.
Collaring For Co-Existance is a very immersive way to get involved in Lion Conservation. Long term research has shown conflict between lions & people can be effectively managed by collaring & monitoring movements, & giving livestock owners access to real time lion movement data.
The biggest threat to lions is that they have been exposed to large numbers of poorly defended livestock, and lions that have never killed livestock have started to view livestock as prey.In short, an alarming number of Laikipia’s lions have developed a dangerous habit - people whose livelihood is threatened by lions often respond by killing the lions.
