Visit the fabled Kanha National Park: home to a stunning array of wildlife, including leopards, wild dogs, and of course the famous Bengal tiger.
Big cats are often at the forefront of people’s minds whenever animal conservation is mentioned. These powerful felines have gripped imaginations across the world thanks to their prominence on various nature documentaries, and here at The Great Projects, we are delighted to be able to offer you the chance to take part in a big cat conservation project in a selection of stunning locations.
Big cat numbers are unfortunately on the decline, and unless action is taken soon some of the world’s most iconic animals such as lions, cheetahs and leopards could disappear. Big cat conservation efforts need to be increased to help protect the world's population of these felines and you can join the fight by becoming a big cat volunteer!
You can participate in a range of big cat conservation projects, where you can volunteer with cheetahs in Africa or experience the majesty of tigers in India. Your journey starts right here - check out what big cat projects we have to offer below.
