Our Mission

The Namibian Lion Trust boldly takes on the AfriCat North Projects…

AfriCat North, primarily the AfriCat Foundation field-base for lion research, human-wildlife conflict mitigation and community support, has seen its role as a lion-conservation force in the Kunene Region, grow exponentially. The need to have a significant presence to protect the lion, to assist with lion-farmer conflict situations, to mentor otherwise desperate farmers in predator-friendly farming practices, and to educate the youth, grows with each passing dry year.

In order to do this, AfriCat North must now boldly set out with renewed energy and commitment as the Namibian Lion Trust (Reg #: T298/2019), with our slogan FOR LIONS, FOR LIFE and FOR OUR FUTURE, dedicated to Panthera leo.

The Namibian Lion Trust will embark on its chosen path with innovation, determination and integrity for it is without question, essential that AfriCat North’s work must continue.
