ABOUT US

We founded this organization to establish mitigation strategies for an ongoing Human-Hyena conflict that hinders successful coexistence. We aim to strengthen the security in community areas where wildlife live and breed and to raise awareness to local communities about their socio-economic benefits gleaned through their efforts to support local conservation of valuable wildlife.

Our Story

Dr. Judith Lazak is a veterinarian by profession. She has conducted extensive studies on Anthrax in Namibia (Etosha National Park). Anthrax is fatal disease for wildlife, domestic animals and humans whilst also being endemic in most African countries. As a passionate wildlife conservationist she has travelled much of Africa while spending her time in diverse internship roles in a variety of different fields such as translocation of wildlife, wildlife medicine and conservation. When the world was about to face the Covid pandemic, she decided to dedicate the rest of her life towards hyena conservation, her favourite predator and to help communities facing a conflict with hyena.
