“Lions & tigers & bears, oh my!” — The Wizard of Oz

With that global perspective on the furry fanged ones, let me introduce you to the Carnivore Conservation Compendium. It is an online news platform committed to sharing the latest media coverage, research papers, thought pieces, interviews, and imagery regarding carnivores and their conservation around the globe.

We focus on wild terrestrial mammalian carnivores, tracking their conservation within five regions of the world (Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and North America) through four themes or subject matters (science, policy, practice, and commentary).

The Carnivore Conservation Compendium has three main features:

Your one stop feeding frenzy of the latest news on carnivores and their conservation from around the globe, where we profile 120+ species.

We share all the stories we could find about carnivores from around the globe for the preceding week. All previous issues can be found here: https://carnivoreconservationcompendium.org/news-digest/

We also share two-to-four other posts a week on the Compendium’s website and social media platforms (Facebook and LinkedIn), which are either deeper dives into a story in the weekly News Digest or another news article, podcast, or natural history story.
