The problem NatureDefenders solves

Problem
Wildlife is facing a severe threat of extinction due to various factors such as habitat loss, poaching, illegal wildlife trade, and climate change. Without immediate intervention, iconic species, including Tiger in Southeast Asia, the African elephant, black rhino, and mountain gorilla, are at risk of disappearing forever.
