Protect

Make sure we can enjoy future safaris by protecting our environment. By purchasing this app you are directly helping to protect Africa’s amazing natural spaces. 10% of all profits from the sale of this app go toward programs supporting wildlife rangers in Africa and their families.

Rangers work tirelessly to watch over some of the most endangered wildlife on the planet, like lions, elephants and rhinos. Many of these animals are among the most widely targeted by poachers for the illegal wildlife trade, and rangers regularly pay with their lives while trying to keep them safe. Let us make sure we can keep on spotting amazing animals by supporting our rangers. 

The Mara Elephant Project:
Established in 2011, Mara Elephant Project (MEP) envisions the existence of a stable elephant population co-existing peacefully with people across the Greater Mara Ecosystem (GME). With over 10 years of experience using boots on the ground rangers and applied research the MEP’s collaborative approach has disrupted poaching in the region and combatted conflict and habitat loss.
