The Conservancy employs a robust and multi-faceted anti-poaching strategy to protect its wildlife. Some key elements of their anti-poaching efforts include:
Ol Pejeta has dedicated ranger teams that conduct regular patrols across the conservancy. These patrols cover vast areas and are crucial for deterring poachers and ensuring the safety of wildlife.
The conservancy leverages modern technology such as drones, cameras, and tracking devices to monitor wildlife movements and detect potential poaching activities. This technology enhances surveillance efforts and aids in rapid response.
The use of specially trained anti-poaching dogs is an integral part of Ol Pejeta’s strategy. These dogs assist in tracking, detecting, and apprehending poachers, adding an extra layer of security.
Ol Pejeta works closely with local communities, involving them in conservation efforts. This engagement helps build a sense of ownership and responsibility, reducing the likelihood of poaching activities in collaboration with the local population.
The conservancy collaborates with law enforcement agencies and wildlife organizations to gather intelligence on potential poaching threats. This information is used to enhance security measures and preemptively address risks.
Ol Pejeta works within the legal framework to prosecute poachers and traffickers, sending a strong message that wildlife crimes will not be tolerated.
Continuous training of rangers is conducted to enhance their skills in tracking, surveillance, and wildlife protection. This ongoing capacity building ensures that the anti-poaching teams are well-prepared and effective.
Whether you opt to adopt a chimpanzee, name a black rhino, sponsor a child’s education, contribute to our ecological and community programs, or simply visit, your involvement becomes a crucial part of our ongoing efforts.

Your support, in any form, ensures the preservation of East Africa’s natural wonders for generations to come.
