Persistence is what it takes

For more than four decades, David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation has worked to protect endangered species and confront the threats pushing them towards extinction.

Our work spans frontline conservation, wildlife crime investigations, community-led action and policy change, all underpinned by long-term commitment, strong partnerships and persistence.

Our 2026 Impact Report brings together the evidence of that work, showing the progress made across our programmes, the challenges that remain, and what sustained conservation action can achieve.
