A strong mentorship relationship begins with a shared understanding of what mentorship means and what it takes from both sides to make the relationship work.

As part of the 2026 Global Mentorship Program, we held a dedicated training session to help them understand the purpose of mentorship, clarify their respective roles and responsibilities, and build a strong foundation for their mentorship journey.

Through reflective exercises and discussion, participants explored what it means to be an effective mentor and an engaged mentee, and how both can contribute to a meaningful and mutually beneficial relationship.

Bison or Buffalo? You don’t have to pick just one.

One name comes from biological classification. The other comes from generations who knew this animal long before it had a scientific label at all. At WILD, we carry both, the same instinct behind our commitment to see 1 million wild Buffalo roaming 100 million acres by 2050, led by the Tribal nations who never stopped calling them home.

“It all comes down to Earth.” 🌏

As Henry Quick Bear Sr. reminds us, the Earth is healing, but she still needs protection.

On this , we’re reflecting on both the resilience of our planet and the responsibility we carry to care for it.

Healing doesn’t happen on its own. It requires intention, action, and a shared commitment to protecting the lands, waters, and wildlife that sustain us all.

Let today be a reminder: the future of the Earth is in our hands.

Mentorship shapes lives and the future of conservation. 🌿

For 34 years, WILD co-founder Ian Player mentored Vance Martin, building a relationship rooted in trust, guidance, and shared purpose. That connection helped shape the organization we know today.

Now, we’re continuing that legacy through the Global Mentorship Program. By becoming a mentor, you’ll not only support an emerging conservation leader, you’ll also grow in your own journey.

If you’re an experienced conservation professional, we invite you to join us! Applications for the 2026 Global Mentorship Program are open until May 27.
