We’re sniffing out wildlife crime.

Our Canine Detection Unit trains dogs to sniff out illegal wildlife contraband like ivory and rhino horn – and they’re really good at it.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Trained dogs are deployed into the field
  • Handler-canine teams work closely to sniff out wildlife criminals
  • Detection dogs find even the smallest traces of wildlife products
  • Poachers are apprehended before they can transport contraband

THE SNIFFER STRATEGY

Elephants and rhinos need a lot more dogs on their side.

Our strength lies in numbers – and we need to deploy more canine detection units to cut off the flow of illegal wildlife products in Africa. This process takes months of hard work for both handlers and dogs.
