Giving Season: Help Us Protect Niger’s Irreplaceable Wildlife
Together, we can help safeguard Niger’s imperiled wildlife.
Niger, a land of breathtaking deserts and unique wildlife in West Africa, holds a special place in Sahara Conservation’s heart. Yet, this natural heritage faces an urgent crisis.
It is one of the world’s least developped countries yet holds a wealth of irreplaceable wildlife that needs support in current times. Funding for conservation has been significantly squeezed during the last two years threatening both wildlife and the rural communities who depend on it.
With your help, we seek to continue our work with communities and protected area managers in Niger to:
- Safeguard genetically distinct and irreplaceable populations of some of the world’s rarest species, and
- Sustain critical conservation landscapes and the benefits they provide for the people who depend on them.
This Giving season, your generosity can save lives and protect ecosystems.
Together, we can ensure a future for Niger’s wildlife.
Why your help is urgently needed
- The addax, with fewer than 100 individuals left, is on the brink of extinction unless we act now.
- Vultures, nature’s essential clean-up species, have declined by 90% over the last three decades, risking ecological collapse.
- The North African ostrich, once a majestic symbol of Niger’s wild beauty, has already disappeared from its historical range in the country.
We need to halt and reverse the fate of Niger’s unique wildlife.
