Land conservation structure
A conservancy network for wild giraffe landscapes.
The practical goal is to secure functioning habitat through purchase, leases, community agreements, and co-management, then fund the operations needed to keep giraffes safe.
Fund a partner pilot first
Support ranger patrols, threat monitoring, snare removal, habitat work, and population baselines before buying land.
Secure land responsibly
Use purchase, lease, conservation agreement, or co-management only when legal title, consent, and funding are strong.
Operate for decades
Maintain ranger teams, habitat restoration, monitoring, community benefits, reserves, and transparent reporting.
Operating rule
No land without the money to protect it.
Land acquisition is responsible only when long-term operations, local consent, monitoring, ranger capacity, drought planning, and transparent governance are funded too.
Read about habitat protectionRanger patrols
Local teams monitor threats, remove snares, record patrol coverage, and coordinate with authorities.
Food and browse
Wild giraffes need native trees, protected riparian areas, corridors, and drought-resilient habitat.
Community agreements
Jobs, leases, local procurement, and benefit-sharing help keep land open for wildlife.
