Review for Panthera, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

These guys are amazing, they re-think conservations of big felines.
They created fake leopard fur and convinced some communities to wear it instead of the traditional fur used in rituals. Check their website and see how much they've achieved, to save big cats, working and educating the locals, whether it's in Africa, Asia our on the American continent. if it is possible to save big cats from extinction, then I believe that Panthera will be a large contributor :)

Review for Panthera, New York, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I study animal management and came across Panthera a couple of years ago. I follow their projects and am really impressed with their work. I admire the passion, which i share, for big felines. I think the interaction with humans has devastated some cat population and Panthera's approach to conservation has assessed this issue very quickly and in an unique way. I do not know of any other conservation groups who bought land and ranches like Panthera did in South America. This allow them to control the staff and their interaction with the predator, but also creates jobs by creating security patrols, building sites...
Also, Panthera is involved and initiated the tiger forever and tiger corridors projects that were adapted with the BBC for TV and was hugely popular.
It is by teaching and educating the people that we will save the cats. Panthera understands this and tackles the problem at its origin.
Thank you guys for doing such a great job :)

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
