Summary

Help save vital wildlife habitat in Cambodia’s Cardamom Mountains by supporting rangers who patrol the forests to secure the survival of elephants, tigers, gibbons, storks, and other endangered species.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

The Cardamom Mountains face severe threats from wildlife poaching, illegal logging, land grabbing, and slash and burn farming. The effect is devastating on the rich local biodiversity and tropical rainforest. Wildlife Alliance supports rangers to protect this ecosystem, and strives restore the habitat through effective park management, patrols, and enforcement of policies to protect this jewel of Southeast Asia.

How will this project solve this problem?

Rangers patrol rainforest, coastal mangroves, and rivers to stop wildlife poachers, forest fires, land grabbers, and illegal loggers. Teams also conduct vehicle checkpoints, dismantle charcoal kilns, remove wildlife snares, and rescue wildlife from poachers. Whenever possible, rescued wildlife is immediately returned back to their natural habitat.

Potential Long Term Impact

By securing the second-largest contiguous rainforest remaining in mainland Southeast Asia, you will help protect habitat for Cambodia’s animals, and create jobs for Cambodians – helping relieve poverty in the area.

Project Message

The Cardamoms are one of the rarest resources in S.E. Asia – a critical reservoir of habitat and wildlife in Cambodia and for all of S.E. Asia. Tragically though, this is an ecosystem under siege.
