LEOPARD CONSERVATION NEEDS YOUR HELP - BECOME INVOLVED
Welcome to the ILP
We are the Ingwe Leopard Project team, we would like to invite you to become involved and be part of the history of Leopard Conservation. Spread the word and raise awareness about Leopard Conservation in South Africa. We bring wildlife to the world. Our main prey are leopards, but we also capture other wildlife animals, so far we have managed to collect altogether 45 mammal species of which 21 were predator species. The most amazing of it all was that we managed to collect ID’s on 18 different leopards. We have managed to dispel the myth that game ranches are only good for conservation and cattle ranches only bad. We actually managed to collect a much wider variety and wealth of species on the cattle ranches than most of the game ranches. We have also managed to prove that the leopard plays a very important part in the regulation of other predators in a system. 2. GPS Collars/VHF Tracking We fit study leopards with a GSM (GPS/Cell) collar which will allow the Ingwe Leopard Project (ILP) to follow their movements and collect the data while looking at the conflict issues between livestock and leopards.
