National Geographic's Big Cat Initiative now transitioning to the Great Plains Big Cat Initiative
The National Geographic Society’s Big Cats Initiative (BCI) was founded over a decade ago to halt the decline of big cats in the wild and to raise awareness of the threats big cats were facing. In partnership with National Geographic Explorers at Large and world-renowned conservationists and filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert, BCI has made a substantial impact in big cats conservation. Now, the program they co-founded with the Society will transition to the Great Plains Big Cats Initiative under the Jouberts’ leadership and management.The Great Plains Big Cats Initiative will build upon the success of BCI, which awarded more than 150 grants for work in 28 countries, funding on-the-ground research and innovative field-based conservation projects to safeguard big cats and their critical habitats.
