Great Cats and Rare Canids Conservation Act

Conservationists from around the world, including some of WCN’s Partners, recently met on Capitol Hill for a Senate briefing of the Great Cats and Rare Canids Conservation Act.

This vital piece of legislation would provide wild cats and canids, including Ethiopian wolves, lions, African wild dogs and many other threatened species vital support through the Multinational Species Conservation Funds, managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The House passed the Act, but it still awaits a floor vote in the Senate.
