Priority Species Monitoring

Be Their Eyes When No One Else Can

Some species survive because someone is watching. Join conservationists in tracking Africa’s most vulnerable wildlife; cheetahs, pangolins, wild dog, and more. Use telemetry, check camera traps, and collect vital data. This is more than a safari. It’s conservation stewardship.

Leave knowing you didn’t just visit the wild but you helped protect it.
