The Zambian Carnivore Programme (ZCP) works to protect Zambia’s large carnivores and their ecosystems through science-based conservation approaches. Their work combines rigorous research with practical conservation actions to protect some of Africa’s most important carnivore populations.

ZCP implements comprehensive programs including: carnivore research and monitoring; anti-poaching support; human-wildlife conflict mitigation; and community conservation initiatives. Their work provides crucial data for conservation planning while supporting on-the-ground protection efforts.

Through their efforts, ZCP has contributed significantly to carnivore conservation in Zambia, providing vital information for protection strategies, reducing human-wildlife conflict, and building local capacity for conservation. Their work has helped protect numerous carnivore populations while developing effective models for large carnivore conservation.
