This #WorldWildlifeDay celebrates solutions that help us work together to finance wildlife conservation more effectively and sustainably and build a resilient future for both people and the planet.? At EarthRanger, we know that financing conservation can be an enormous challenge. To help conservation organizations stretch their already limited resources, EarthRanger is free of charge. We are incredibly proud of the hundreds of users working to protect our Earth’s biodiversity, habitats and ecosystems.? From the plains of Boma Badingilo to the Chilean coastline, we are honored to work alongside the teams protecting wildlife on a prolific scale. It is our hope that the platforms we have created continue to develop and serve the great work of the rangers, conservation managers, ecologists, veterinarians and researchers using EarthRanger to streamline their operations.In this challenging time, we reflect on the words of the great Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." #worldwildlifeday #earthranger #conservationtech The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy African Parks Network Grumeti Fund | NPO https://lnkd.in/dZcXhXgt
