African Big Cats

SCI Foundation is dedicated to advancing research initiatives across Africa aimed at the effective management of big cat species.

Our Africa program collaborates with both governmental bodies and non-governmental organizations to implement scientific monitoring and management of wildlife populations.

We focus on developing wildlife policies and regulations while fostering regional cooperation to enhance the sustainable use of wildlife resources. Additionally, we advocate for the benefits of hunting as a vital component of wildlife conservation and as a means to support rural communities, all rooted in the principles of sustainable use.
