Fundraising for Bees & Elephants Research Center Project - Tanzania
Our goal is to create a research center, initially for study of bees and elephants but eventually for all wildlife that live in the east African savanna, that welcomes international scientists, citizen scientists, and eco-tourists to gather data, experience and appreciate wildlife, and learn to protect, conserve, and study all species sustainably.
Research projects would include tracking elephant migration routes using GPS collars to detect areas of human-elephant conflict and poaching, elephant behavior/physiology, use of bees as a livestock management tool, and establishment of pollination corridors to feed/support/protect wildlife species.
Kitenden Wildlife Corridor Tinga Tinga, Tanzania: The Kitenden Wildlife Corridor is a critical wildlife corridor in Tanzania that connects Amboseli National Park in Kenya to the Maasai Mara National Reserve and other protected areas in Tanzania. It is a vital migratory route for elephants, giraffes, zebras, and other wildlife species, and it plays an important role in maintaining the ecological balance of the region.
