Description

Over the past years, the population of desert lions has increased significantly in the region of the Skeleton Coast, Namibia. This is due to the enormous efforts and hard work of the Desert Lion Conservation Project. The main threat for the lions are unfortunately still the human-wildlife conflicts. Locals are still afraid of the lions and don’t hesitate to kill them when they come too close.

To minimize these conflicts, the project has set up an early warning system. Thanks to this system the local communities are notified when a lion is approaching, giving them time to protect their stock. For this program to succeed, all lions need to be equipped with a specific collar designed for this cause. You can help this project by donating one or more collars. € 175 allows for manufacture and upkeep of one collar for one year.

Would you like to make this a recurring, yearly donation? Simply go here, choose ‘Recurring Donation’, set the amount and yearly option, and mention that you’d like to sponsor a lion collar in the message section.
