Biome Conservation

Biome Conservation Biome Conservation is Canada's leading charity for conserving nature in the tropics and other areas worldwide. We support conservation in over 35 countries.

From marine conservation in Cambodia, to protecting snow leopards in the high Himalaya. Donate! ICFC was created to further the conservation of wild nature, especially in the tropics, where biological diversity and threats to it are greatest. Nature conservation in the tropics is a superb investment, addressing many of the world's greatest challenges: climate change, biodiversity loss, and loss of the "ecosystem services" that support human life and underlie all economies.

On June 3, join Biome Conservation and field partners protecting shorebirds across the world’s major flyways.

This reel highlights work led by Biome partner Pronatura Noroeste , which is helping safeguard critical beach habitat for vulnerable shorebirds across the Americas using innovative conservation techniques on the ground.

During the webinar, you’ll hear directly from conservation leaders in Argentina, Mexico, Chile, and Asia about what it takes to protect species like Red Knots, Spoon-billed Sandpipers, and Snowy Plovers — from monitoring nesting beaches and migratory stopover sites to developing new approaches for safeguarding critical habitat.

It’s a rare opportunity to learn from the people leading this work every day and to gain deeper insight into the challenges and creativity involved in protecting some of the planet’s most extraordinary migratory birds.

Every year, shorebirds travel thousands of kilometres across continents, connecting coastlines, wetlands, and ecosystems across the planet.

But these extraordinary migrations depend on fragile habitats that are increasingly under threat.

Join us on June 3 for a conversation with the conservation leaders working to protect shorebirds across the globe — from Red Knots in the Americas to the critically endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper in Asia.

You’ll hear firsthand from Biome field partners in Argentina, Mexico, Chile, and Thailand about the challenges shorebirds face, the innovative conservation strategies being used to protect them, and what it takes to safeguard these species across international flyways.

This webinar is part of Biome’s 2026 webinar series connecting supporters directly with the people leading conservation on the ground.

NEW: Today, on , we’re recognizing the importance of long-term, science-based conservation and the people making it possible following another impactful year.

The infographics shared here, drawn from Biome’s 2025 Annual Report, highlight some of the collective impact made possible through these partnerships over the past year.

Across the ecosystems where Biome works, field partners continue advancing biodiversity protection through community-led conservation, ecological research, habitat restoration, and Indigenous stewardship.

We invite you to explore the full report to learn more about the people, projects, and conservation efforts behind this work.

🌿 Around the world, conservation is happening every day — quietly, consistently, and often far from view. It’s led by communities who are protecting the places they know best.

This work depends on long-term, committed support. The kind that shows up month after month, creating stability where it’s needed most and allowing conservation to continue through challenges and change. It’s what makes it possible to protect forests, defend wildlife, and steward entire ecosystems over decades.

This long-term support is part of Biome's ethos. We invest in projects that we think have an endless horizon. As such, we call on supporters who are also in it for the long run: monthly donors.

This Earth Day, we’re thinking about that kind of commitment—and the role monthly donors play in making it possible. Thank you for being part of a collective effort that doesn’t stop when the moment passes, but continues steadily, where it matters most.

Learn about becoming a monthly donor today and the benefits it has for sustained conservation across the planet.

Dominique Bikaba, founder of Strong Roots , was recently featured in The Guardian for his work protecting forests, wildlife, and community rights in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Strong Roots Congo is one of Biome’s field partners working on the ground with local communities to secure land rights, restore forests, and protect critical habitat for the critically endangered Grauer’s gorilla.

At the heart of this work is a bold vision: reconnecting fragmented forests through a biodiversity corridor linking Kahuzi-Biega National Park and the Itombwe Nature Reserve—supporting wildlife movement while strengthening long-term community stewardship across the region.

We are proud to support local conservation champions like Dominique, whose work continues to surpass the odds.

Deep inside the caves of Mount Elgon in Kenya, elephants leave markings like these as they carve into the rock with their tusks, searching for mineral-rich salt.

It’s one of the only places in the world where elephants are known to venture deep underground to mine salt—an ancient behaviour that has shaped this isolated population for generations.

On the frontlines protecting these elephants are local rangers and Biome conservation partners, working closely with communities to monitor conflict, protect farms, and ensure that both people and elephants can coexist. The Mount Elgon Elephant Project is one of Biome's most interesting projects.

👉 Next week, can hear directly from those leading this work on Mount Elgon.

Join us for a live Rangers webinar and learn how these efforts are protecting one of the most unique elephant populations on Earth.

Behind every protected forest, reef, and savannah are the people on the ground working every day to defend it.

On April 8, join us for a rare opportunity to meet these frontline heroes and hear what it truly takes to turn conservation commitment into action.

We’re bringing together rangers from Peru, Kenya, and Cambodia who protect ecosystems that span volcanic ridges to coral reefs. In this intimate conversation, you’ll hear their stories firsthand and gain a deeper understanding of what makes effective, on-the-ground conservation possible.

This is the first webinar in Biome’s four-part 2026 series, where we’ll connect you directly with our field partners and the work your support makes possible.

🐘 BIG NEWS: More elephants have returned to Uganda for the first time in more than 40 years.

After decades of absence, our field partners report that at least 60 elephants have crossed back and forth across the Kenya–Uganda border at Mount Elgon.

The area once supported more than 1,000 elephants roaming freely across the mountain. However, political instability in the 1970s wiped them out on the Ugandan side and devastated populations across the region. Today, thanks to sustained conservation, trained rangers, and long-term commitment, elephants have reclaimed part of their historical range through the Mount Elgon Elephant Project.

Partners behind the Mount Elgon Elephant Project and government agencies in Kenya and Uganda are now exploring how to expand this conservation model across the border to support elephants moving across the landscape.

This is a powerful reminder that when conservation is sustained, collaborative, and rooted in local stewardship, wildlife can recover.

Read our press release today to learn more, and join our new Ranger Fund to help build the momentum for rangers championing these wins across the planet.
