What We Do.

Anti-Poaching

The most important work that Bushlife Conservancy undertakes is anti-poaching, which is complex, dangerous, and requires a rigorous and systematic approach. Bushlife Conservancy provides equipment and logistical support for ranger patrols and coordinates efforts to identify, detain and arrest poachers throughout the Zambezi River Valley.

Monitoring and Tracking

Bushlife Conservancy undertakes constant monitoring of the herds and iconic elephants in the area to track and protect the elephants. One of our latest initiatives is the collaring of the iconic bulls in Mana Pools.

Infrastructure Development

The key to protecting Zimbabwe's elephants is to establish an ongoing ranger presence in vulnerable areas; this requires resources, equipment infrastructure such as roads built in remote regions, along with boats, vehicles and more.

Community Outreach

Bushlife Conservancy provides funding to support local community health and welfare needs, such as medical equipment and supplies for a local clinic, which will be the first of its kind in the area, and a school bus for local kids. The goal is to educate and provide resources to the community so that its members will in turn support wildlife conservation efforts in the area.

Our Achievements

100 Tusks Recovered

We work with National Parks, local communities and other wildlife organizations to protect elephants and endangered wildlife against ivory poachers and traffickers. Since 2016, Bushlife Conservancy, working through the African nonprofit, Bushlife Support Unit Trust, has established an investigation team that recovered over 100 tusks and achieved over 170 arrests for wildlife infractions, including poaching and trafficking.

Successful Resourcing

Bushlife Conservancy, through the local nonprofit Bushlife Support Unit Trust, has provided equipment and resources, including six patrol vehicles and a river patrol boat, to support 1,600 rangers, and has built many miles of roads in remote areas to provide access for anti-poaching patrols..

Close Monitoring of Elephant Populations

We help track and monitor the herds of Mana Pools to gauge the success of our anti-poaching measures. We are now beginning a program to put radio collars on elephants in Mana Pools, have collared 4 iconic bull elephants, and have permission to put collars on 9 more.
