PAINTED DOG RESEARCH

 

MISSION 

The mission of the Painted Dog Research is to achieve meaningful conservation of African painted dogs using field-based data driven research, community-based education, and sound science.

VISION

We envision a freely interconnected painted dog population unencumbered by human interference. Strategies: 

  1. Mentor Zimbabwean and international university students to train tomorrow’s generation of conservationists.

  2. Address conservation challenges throughout the Kavango–Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA) dispersal corridor in Zimbabwe, linking painted dog populations of all five neighboring countries.

  3. Implement multi-level conservation initiatives, including field data collection, development and deployment of satellite tracking anti-snare collars for painted dogs, vehicle speed reduction, education outreach, and habitat restoration.

  4. Utilize education and empathy in local communities to find solutions that are beneficial to both painted dogs and people.
