The Cape Leopard Trust
The Cape Leopard Trust is an active predator conservation working group in South Africa's Western Cape.
Objective
The enigmatic Cape Leopard is used as an icon to advocate for the protection of predators in their natural environments, as well as to raise awareness of broader biodiversity issues and promoting the need for committed conservation of ecosystems.
The Cape Leopard Trust has a number of active leopard and predator research projects in the Western Cape region. It uses research as a tool for conservation, finding solutions to human-wildlife conflict and inspiring interest in the environment through an interactive and dynamic environmental education program.
