Wild Chimpanzee Foundation - Wildlife Ranger Challenge 2026
Our eco-guards and eco-guides are joining forces for WRC 2026. Together, they protect the rich biodiversity of Côte d'Ivoire's largest forest block. Support our frontline teams today to strengthen conservation where it matters most!
The guardians of Côte d'Ivoire's remaining forests
Rangers are Africa’s unsung heroes. They hold diverse roles as conservationists, teachers, community support workers, leaders and much more.
Meet our formidable combined team representing the frontlines of conservation in Côte d’Ivoire’s largest forest block!
Eco-guards (since 2017): Les Gardiens De La Forêt
This dedicated unit has worked tirelessly deep within the Cavally Nature Reserve. Since 2017, their relentless patrol efforts successfully cleared the reserve of major illegal exploitation. Their exceptional commitment was directly responsible for the critical victory of Cavally’s formal reclassification as a full Nature Reserve in 2023.
Eco-guides (since 2012): Les Wild Chimps
For over a decade, our experienced eco-guides in Taï National Park have been bridging the gap between conservation and the community. By leading visitors through this incredible World Heritage site, they raise essential awareness, promote sustainable ecotourism, and actively contribute to the daily protection of the park and its chimpanzee populations.
Today, these two teams are joining forces for the Wildlife Ranger Challenge, and we invite you to stand behind their vital mission. Your support directly helps supply essential field equipment, technical gear, and operational supplies that keep our guardians safe and effective in the forest.
Give today and the Scheinberg Relief Fund will match every dollar donated, amplifying your impact. Join us in speaking up #ForWildlifeRangers.
