Africa has over 400 known endangered animal species. Tracking and monitoring of endangered species is a critical step in the conservation of these animals. Many game reserves do not have the capacity or budget to run their own effective wildlife monitoring programmes.Wildlife ACT provides free tracking and monitoring services to game reserves in Zululand, South Africa, both by initiating, implementing and managing monitoring projects on reserves that don’t have monitoring programmes in place; or by taking over existing monitoring projects on reserves that can no longer fund or manage them. Wildlife ACT relies on funding through volunteer placements across all the reserves on which we perform priority species monitoring. The valuable information that Wildlife ACT volunteers gather, has numerous management applications, including the planning of successful introduction and removal strategies of endangered wildlife species as well as supplying information to local conservation authorities, including Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, the WWF, the Black Rhino Range Expansion Project and the KZN Wild Dog Management Group.
