Conflicts rise as human populations increase, natural resources wain, and habitats shrink. We are committed to mitigating these issues to the benefit of both humans and wildlife, as well as finding long-term solutions that allow for a more natural coexistence.

Incident Response
Conflict situations are often very stressful for both humans and wildlife. Incidents need to be handled carefully to prevent more harm being done. We prioritise our resources for incident reaction to allow all the necessary processes to be carried out effectively in order to primarily ensure the safety of both parties, determine the cause and nature of the incident and collect the data necessary to begin forming a plan to prevent a recurrence in future.
Awareness Education & Solutions
As motive and impact of an incident is investigated and examined, data is compared to other incidents and any patterns are analysed to formulate a long-term mitigation strategy. This information is then passed on to the relevant authorities and the affected community members through awareness campaigns and consultative meetings. Training sessions are carried out on the best practices used to prevent HWC and how to handle an incident should it occur. In situations where these processes do not provide a lasting solution, alternative non-traditional methods are introduced and implemented.

Human & Wildlife Emergency Aid
It is inevitable that casualties result from conflict situations and the wildlife generally pays the ultimate price. By providing timely and effective medical care for humans and veterinary care for wildlife victims, we are able to reduce the impact of incidents and improve survival rates. The scourge of the bushmeat trade has had a huge impact on the wildlife with thousands of wire snares causing untold damage to wildlife even years after they were deployed. Having an in-house animal treatment expert on our team enables us to immobilise and treat most injured animals that would otherwise have died a slow and painful death.
