In today’s Wild For Change podcast, we are speaking with Mike Veale, the president of Global Conservation Force.  Asia is currently home to three species 

Mike Veale founded Global Conservation Force in 2014.  His mission is to save endangered species and protect their habitats in countries like Africa and Asia.  

His unique zoo keeping background combined with an active, combat-sport-heavy lifestyle gave Mike the unique experience needed to fight on the front line of conservation. Mike traveled to South Africa and survived the intensive boot camp training required before finally becoming an anti-poaching ranger in Kruger National Park.

Global Conservation Force is made up of a team of passionate people working hard to fight against the poaching of endangered and threatened wildlife.  

Global Conservation Force focuses on:

• Training rangers to protect wildlife
• Raising awareness and providing education of the importance of wildlife
• On the ground action where Mike and his staff work in regions such as Africa and Asia to gain insight to the problems that the wildlife are facing.   
• Collaborating and forming partnerships with other organizations in Africa and Asia to help protect critical wildlife.

We will be discussing Global Conservation Force’s projects created to help protect the wildlife such as its Mounted Anti-Poaching Unit, giraffe and their silent extinction process, rangers risking their lives to protect the wildlife, the wildlife trade and its link to COVID and so much more!
