This grant is for the critical purpose of fostering international collaboration in wildlife conservation, recognizing that many endangered species and their habitats extend beyond national boundaries. With increasing human impact from development, pollution, and resource consumption, the need for cross-border efforts is paramount. This initiative, known as the Wildlife Without Borders program, targets the devastating threats of habitat destruction, illegal poaching, and pet-trade smuggling that imperil iconic animals like tigers, great apes, elephants, and marine turtles, particularly across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. It aims to empower local communities to value and actively participate in protecting the world’s most treasured wildlife and their vital ecosystems.

Description: | Conservation of wildlife is a global responsibility, with the survival of species largely dependent on habitats extending beyond national boundaries. With human populations growing and corresponding increases in development, pollution and consumption of natural resources, the need for international collaboration has never been greater. Some of the worlds most treasured and exotic animals are dangerously close to extinction. Destruction of natural habitat, illegal poaching, and pet-trade smuggling in parts of Africa, Asia and Latin America are devastating populations of tigers, great apes, elephants, marine turtles and many other cherished species. If we want to save these species from extinction, we have to work across borders. Through our Wildlife Without Borders program, we are doing just that: helping local people to value and protect the world¿s most treasured wildlife and habitats. |
