The Namibian Lion Trust is committed to the long-term protection and conservation of the lion and oth

In order to do this, AfriCat North must now boldly set out with renewed energy and commitment as the Namibian Lion Trust (Reg # T298/2019), with our slogan FOR LIONS, FOR LIFE and FOR OUR FUTURE, dedicated to Panthera leo, for it is essential that AfriCat North’s work should persist…

🩺🦁 The hands behind conservation.

Wildlife veterinarians play a vital role in protecting Namibia’s wildlife. From health assessments and GPS collaring to emergency interventions and research, their expertise helps us better understand and safeguard vulnerable species.

Every examination provides valuable insights. Every intervention contributes to conservation.

Working quietly behind the scenes, wildlife vets help ensure that Namibia’s wild landscapes remain healthy, balanced, and thriving for generations to come. 🌿💚

🦁🌍 Give the Wild a Voice.

Every share, every donation, every act of support helps protect lions and the landscapes they call home.

Together, we can keep the roar alive for generations to come.

Stand for lions. Stand for the wild. 🙏

🦁 Through GPS satellite collars and field patrols, we monitor lion movements in real time — helping us alert communities early and guide livestock to safety in predator-proof bomas.

But this work happens far from behind a desk. It depends on vehicles, fuel, technology, and constant presence in the field.

Every kilometre driven and every alert sent is part of a bigger goal: reducing conflict and protecting both people and lions.

💚 Your support makes it possible.
Thank you for standing with us.

🦁🐾 The Secret Hidden in a Lion’s Tail

Did you know that lions are the only cats with a tassel-like tuft at the end of their tails?

Scientists are still unsure of its exact purpose, but it is thought to play a role in communication, helping pride members signal to one another through subtle tail movements.

Lions now occupy only a fraction of their historical range across the continent. Recent assessments estimate that lion range has declined by approximately 34% over the last three lion generations, shrinking from roughly 2.37 million km² in 2004 to 1.57 million km² in 2025.

Today, lions persist across fragmented landscapes, with many populations increasingly isolated and under pressure from habitat loss, prey depletion, human–wildlife conflict, and other growing threats.

Understanding where lions remain, and where populations are declining, is critical for effective conservation planning, monitoring, and long-term recovery efforts.

The African Lion Database (ALD) works to consolidate and standardize lion distribution, population, and threat data from across Africa to support science-based conservation and informed decision-making.

🦁 Stronger data. Smarter action. A better future for lions.

💡🌿📚 Today’s learners are tomorrow’s conservation leaders.

Through our schools and Wildlife Clubs, young Namibians are gaining more than knowledge about lions and nature — they’re discovering opportunities, purpose, and a future connected to the land around them.

Because protecting the wild starts with empowering the next generation to value it.

🇳🇦🌿 Today is International Day for Biological Diversity
This years theme: Acting locally for global impact

From Namibia’s deserts and savannahs to its extraordinary wildlife and resilient communities, biodiversity is the heartbeat of our country. Every lion, elephant, plant, insect and ecosystem plays a vital role in maintaining the balance of life.

Here in Namibia, conservation starts on the ground — protecting habitats, supporting coexistence, and empowering communities to live alongside wildlife. These local actions create ripple effects far beyond our borders.

Because when we protect Namibia’s natural heritage, we help protect the future of our planet. 🦁💚

🌍🌿 Nature is not separate from us — it sustains us. The health of our planet, our wildlife, our water, and our ecosystems are deeply connected to our own future.

Every species pushed toward extinction and every habitat destroyed weakens the balance that life depends on.

Protecting the wild is not only about saving animals.
It’s about protecting ourselves, future generations, and the only home we have. 🦁🌍

🌍🦁 “What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected.”
