Dive Into the Latest LRF Progress Report

The latest LRF Progress Report is here, highlighting some of the most significant projects currently being supported by the Lion Recovery Fund. Many of these projects focus on creating and maintaining coexistence between people and lions; agricultural development and expanding human settlements are bringing people and lions into closer proximity across Africa, which can lead to conflict that can negatively impact these big cats. From Chad to Namibia to Tanzania, the LRF is investing in effective interventions that protect lions, their prey, and their habitats.
