Project Peril is committed to protecting endangered species through holistic and hands-on wildlife conservation efforts.
A Greater Good Charities Signature Program, Project Peril is dedicated to the conservation of species identified as in peril, threatened, endangered or close to extinction throughout the world.
Humans are one in more than 1 million species. Yet our existence has marked our planet, leaving many species on the brink of extinction, 30-50% of which might be gone by mid-century. Biodiversity is crucial to our planet’s survival and rapid loss rates endanger it and everything living within it.
One in Five Species on Earth Now Faces Extinction
Global biodiversity is declining at an alarming rate. In order to combat this, Project Peril works with our partners on the ground to:
- Rescue animals from illegal trafficking
- Train & employ locals to protect their habitats from illegal deforestation and animal poaching
- Help ensure natural migration corridors of numerous species remain uninterrupted
- Protect and restore species’ natural habitats through land protection and reforestation
- Provide cohabitation education to reduce retaliation against species
- Build sanctuaries for endangered animals to safely live out the remainder of their days
From protecting and exploring the Madrean Sky Islands in North America to protecting the Sumatran Rhino in Asia, our projects reach the most vulnerable species across the globe.
