Wildlife is the only sustainable treasure that Nature gave the people of Africa and Asia. This is their asset but we are all responsible for it because it is also their gift to the world. The rest are just economies from the extraction of minerals and agriculture off the natural land. If both continent’s iconic wildlife fails, the rest of the world will follow. We regard it as a sacred mission to abolish the evil commerce of wildlife trade and exploitation for it continues to rob the world of its treasures and people. To that end, we support all types of development programs that will enable sustainable communities out of poverty and insecurity so that local people would choose a vibrant wildlife economy over the violent extinction economy.
