Improving the state of global wild cat ecosystems through a sequence of research, education, and online technologies to benefit humanity and drive meaningful change in the natural world.

DESCRIPTION

The Felidae organization was formed in early 2006 to advance the conservation of wild felids throughout the world. Felidae unites a critical momentum of focus, ambition, intellect, skill, and global strategic action. In an exceptionally productive 6 years, we have raised the bar in felid conservation and have become an established influence in the protection of wild felids. Your contribution will help us grow and extend our reach for tangible conservation gains, and forge the critical relationships that will ensure long-term viability for the world’s wild cats and the healthy ecosystems they sustain.

Felidae’s multi-pronged approach combines forward-looking research, education, and technology to discover new approaches to in situ felid preservation and reach worldwide audiences through technology and social media.
