I am proud to announce that I donate a portion of all custom safari proceeds to the Wildlife Conservation Network (WCN), a nonprofit that brings together conservationists and supporters to advance solutions for wildlife and people to coexist and thrive.
WCN partners with carefully vetted, community-based conservation groups around the world – providing financial support, training, and logistical help so they can focus on saving wildlife and improving coexistence between communities and nature.
WCN helps protect a wide variety of species, restores and safeguards habitats, supports coexistence between wildlife and people (by reducing human-wildlife conflict, promoting sustainable land use, and supporting wildlife-friendly livelihoods), and strengthens conservation capacity among local communities.
In addition, WCN invests in the next generation of conservation leaders via scholarship and career-support programs – helping build sustainable, long-term conservation efforts within local populations.
WCN enables small but high-impact field conservation projects to scale up, contributing substantially to species protection, habitat preservation, and global biodiversity efforts.
I have had the privilege of working with WCN’s teams in the field for many years, photographing their work with grevy’s zebras, cotton top tamarins, wild dogs and cheetahs.
A portion of the proceeds from my books, New On Earth and Meerkat Diary are donated to WCN.
Many of my scheduled group safaris also help fund conservation. Past supported organizations include WCN Partners such as Cheetah Conservation Fund, Painted Dog Conservation, Proyecto Titi and others.
By having me and my team build you a custom wildlife safari, you are directly supporting the conservation of the wildlife you encounter.
When we design a custom private wildlife safari for solo travelers, friends or families. We focus on creating a deeper experiences for our clients. We select places that allow for genuine, meaningful wildlife encounters and skip the rest that give you a boiler plate “one-size-fits-all” itinerary, that always follow the same path and stop in the same places.
By limiting group sizes and choosing ethical, conservation-led operators, we avoid crowding, unethical practices, and provide you with more opportunity to see and experience intimate wildlife encounters.
More connection, more authenticity, and moments that stay with you forever!
