​The Zambian Carnivore Programme (ZCP) is a Zambian conservation organization dedicated to protecting large carnivores and ecosystems. We focus on science, action, leadership, and coexistence. Through long-term research, we identify threats to wildlife and take immediate action to address them. We empower local conservation leaders, offer extensive training, and promote peaceful coexistence between people and wildlife. Operating across 39,500 km² of national parks and ecosystems, we work with local and international partners to combat poaching, land encroachment, and species decline. Our science guides conservation policy, ensuring a sustainable future for Zambia’s wildlife and communities.
