Two Decades in the Wild. A Legacy Still Unfolding.
Since 2006, Panthera has followed wild cats to the edges of the earth — and the results speak for themselves. This is the story of two decades, forty species, and a mission that is only gaining ground.
Twenty Years in the Field
Our Foundation
Science That Drives Action on the Ground
From the outset, Panthera's work has been anchored in globally recognized science — building one of the most comprehensive bodies of knowledge on wild cat ecology, threats, and conservation needs.
That scientific foundation has always served a clear purpose: to enable action. Today, Panthera stands as an implementation-first organization, translating science directly into measurable, on-the-ground impact at scale.
Large-scale connectivity planning for jaguars across Latin America, including the Jaguar Life Refuge — designed to secure and reconnect critical habitat across the species' entire range.
Science-driven recovery strategies supporting tiger populations across Asia, and habitat assessments guiding African lion and leopard conservation across five priority landscapes.
Evidence-based frameworks for anti-poaching, enforcement, and wildlife crime disruption — shaping how governments and partners prioritize conservation investment worldwide.
