Lions

In almost every wildlife programme the Lion is the undoubted star of the show. Whenever anyone thinks of the wildlife in Africa, an image of a golden pride of lions trekking across the savannah comes to mind. These incredible big cats may be a symbol of strength in the animal kingdom, but lion conservation efforts are needed now more than ever to prevent the decline of this amazing animal. Lions once roamed across vast swathes of land in both Africa and Asia, but as their two major threats of habitat loss and hunting become ever more prominent, the fate of the lion is well and truly uncertain.

This is why here at The Great Projects we are delighted to be able to offer you the chance to take part in one of our incredible lion conservation projects! You can travel to South Africa or even Namibia to immerse yourself in the world of the planet's most famous big cat. Lion conservation projects are crucial to the survival of this big cat, so why not sign up to a project and help now!
