Small Wild Cat Conservation Foundation

There are over 30 species of small wild cats around the world, many of which are unknown to most people. The Small Wild Cat Conservation Foundation (SWCCF) strives to raise awareness and defend these rare cats from a variety of threats, such as shrinking habitat, loss of prey, and conflicts with humans, livestock, and domestic animals. Since they are often difficult to locate, little is known about many small wild cat species, which is why SWCCF’s work is so vital to their survival. SWCCF works with local partners on nearly every continent to study small wild cats, identifying and mitigating threats to save them and their habitat. They also hold conferences with other small cat researchers to broaden scientific understanding of these mysterious felines.

Snow Leopard Conservancy

Only a few thousand snow leopards remain in their home high in the mountains. This rare species is a sacred symbol of Central Asia, but lives under constant threat of poaching, human development, and climate change. The Snow Leopard Conservancy (SLC) binds snow leopard conservation with the traditional beliefs of indigenous communities to build support for saving this big cat. With the aid of innovative technologies and the expertise of local people, SLC tracks snow leopards and protects their habitat. They also educate children about snow leopard conservation and help run Land of Snow Leopard, a coalition of conservationists and local cultural leaders.

Saiga Conservation Alliance

Across the steppe and semi-arid deserts of Central Asia and Russia, the saiga antelope faces worse threats than the harsh climate. Over a 15 year period, the saiga population dwindled from millions to just the few hundred thousand surviving today due to extensive hunting for their meat and horns. The Saiga Conservation Alliance (SCA) protects saiga throughout their range and closely monitors herd health. SCA engages local communities heavily to build national pride in the saiga, incorporate them into cultural events, and teach young people about the future of saiga conservation. Recently, the saiga population has begun to slightly increase thanks in part to the efforts of SCA.

Few animals look as mythological as the okapi, a reclusive species found only in the Democratic Republic of Congo. To prevent this rare animal from disappearing, the Okapi Conservation Project (OCP) monitors their small population in Okapi Wildlife Reserve. OCP also works with authorities to tackle threats to okapi and their habitat, such as illegal mining and logging, bushmeat poaching, and harmful agricultural development. To cultivate pride and inspire the next generation of okapi protectors, OCP runs educational programs for children and offers community assistance to the people who share land with okapi on the reserve.

Women Who Save Wildlife | Spectacled Bear Conservation

Spectacled bears are the only bear species found in South America, and their scarcity makes protecting them challenging at times. Spectacled Bear Conservation (SBC) works closely with communities in Peru’s alpine and lowland forests to preserve bear habitat and food supply. Habitat fragmentation is an ongoing threat, so one of SBC’s primary goals is purchasing land to connect isolated bear populations. SBC studies the biology and distribution of these bears to formulate the effective conservation strategies. They also provide conservation education and an alternative livelihood program to indigenous Peruvian communities to involve them in the conservation of this rare bear species.

Speakers

Combating Wildlife Crime | Pangolin Crisis Fund

The Pangolin Crisis Fund (PCF) has the express goal of stopping the poaching, trafficking, and the demand and consumption of pangolin meat and scales. Since being founded in 2019 by WCN and Save Pangolins, the PCF has invested in programs around the world that protect pangolins and their habitats as well as orchestrate campaigns to reduce the demand for pangolin products. Prior to the COVID-19 crisis, pangolins were not well known on a global scale, so their vulnerable status went largely unnoticed. The PCF has highlighted the connection between today’s pandemic and the broader threat of the illegal wildlife trade, and to date, the PCF has supported 10 projects in 14 countries and disbursed over $918,000 toward pangolin conservation.

Combating Wildlife Crime | Cheetah Conservation Fund

The Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) has spent the last thirty years working internationally to save cheetahs. The cheetah population has decreased by 90% in the last century due to human-cheetah conflict and habitat loss, so CCF’s mission is to curb this decline and amplify conservation efforts to help their numbers recover. From their base in Namibia, CCF changes hearts and minds through community education about cheetahs. They also protect ecosystems shared by people and cheetahs and provide rehabilitation to cheetahs rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. CCF works tirelessly to preserve the future of cheetahs in the wild.

Combating Wildlife Crime | Rhino Recovery Fund

The Rhino Recovery Fund (RRF) launched in mid-2020 to protect rhinos from wildlife crime and restore their landscapes, while also improving the health of rhino populations and benefiting local people. Rhinos once roamed Africa and Asia in abundant numbers, but the illegal horn trade and rampant habitat loss have caused their populations to shrink dramatically. The RRF funds projects that aim to stop rhino poaching, curb the demand for their horns, and both protect and restore their natural habitats. Through the joint efforts of conservationists and local communities, rhinos can reclaim their lands and recover their numbers. In its first few months, the RRF has already supported nine projects in six countries and disbursed over $908,000 for rhino recovery.

Restoring Wild Places | Grevy's Zebra Trust

Found only in northern Kenya and parts of Ethiopia, the Grevy’s zebra is the rarest and largest zebra species in the world. It is threatened by widespread loss of habitat, restricted access to scarce water sources and insecurity, and large scale infrastructure projects. With roughly 3,000 individuals remaining, Grevy’s Zebra Trust (GZT) is dedicated to helping this rare zebra population rebound, which is intrinsically linked with the resilience of pastoral communities in northern Kenya. GZT puts these communities at the center of their conservation efforts and works with them to implement sustainable livestock grazing, restore degraded land, and monitor Grevy’s zebra to ensure they have access to key resources for their survival.

Proyect Washu's primary goal is to protect the habitat of one of the most endangered primate species in the world, the Brown-headed spider monkey (Ateles fusciceps fusciceps). They face immediate threats of habitat loss from cropland expansion, mining activities, and legal or illegal logging. To reduce the impact of these threats, Proyecto Washu works on Scientific Research, Community-led Development, Ex-Situ Conservation, and Sustainability Environmental Education. Proyecto Washu is certain that biodiversity conservation in highly diverse regions is directly linked to the quality of life of local communities and the appropriation of their territory. They believe that local communities are the ones who lose the most from deforestation, but they are also who can gain the most from the protection of the forest.
