Three of our former volunteers; Luke De Moel, James Cole, and Oey Parker have decided to help us out in the most incredible of ways – they’re leaving their jobs and lives at home, raising the funds needed then heading out to South Africa to set up an IAPF Mounted (horse) Anti-poaching Unit.
Why Mounted Rangers?
A mounted anti-poaching unit is able to cover more ground then a foot patrol unit in a fraction of the time, while maintaining a symbiotic relationship with the ecosystem and reaching areas inaccessible to vehicle mounted patrols. The addition of packhorses will allow rangers to do long-range and long-term patrols in vulnerable areas. ...
In order to raise the required funds to get the unit up and running ($20, 000AUD), the guys will be riding from town to town on horseback in Australia to create awareness about wildlife poaching in Africa, and ultimately raise the funds needed to get the project off the ground. The implementation of the Mounted Unit Training Initiative will keep the IAPF prominent in the fight against poaching by enabling us to continue to be a global leader in meeting conservation challenges head-on with multi-pronged effective methods.
Please check out the project at the link below, make a donation if you can and pass it on to anyone else who you think can help. Hopefully we can soon get horses and rangers on the ground, and drones in the sky protecting our wildlife!See More
