World Lion Day: Protecting Tsavo's Lions Through Science and Community Action

The African lion, one of Africa's iconic Big Five species, is a conservation priority for the African Wildlife Foundation across key landscapes, including Tsavo in Kenya, Kidepo in Uganda, and Kilombero in Tanzania. Through the Tsavo Lion Project, supported by Simply Southern, AWF is combining science, GPS collar technology, real-time monitoring, and community partnerships to reduce human-lion conflict, protect lion populations, and strengthen coexistence between people and wildlife.
