Desert Lion Conservation
The Desert Lions of Namibia.A small population of desert-adapted lions survives in extreme desert conditions; they exhibit unique adaptation to their environment and live in a harsh habitat of dunes, gravel plains, and barren mountains, and occasionally forage along the beaches of the Skeleton Coast.
Nowhere else can free-ranging lions be seen amongst dunes or on a beach. As a result, the iconic "Desert" lion has become a prominent feature in Namibia and is highly valued, both aesthetically and financially, by conservationists and the growing tourism industry alike. These lions should be viewed as a national asset to Namibia. We must conserve and manage them wisely to benefit Namibians and the broader international community.
