What We’ve Achieved
Over the past decade, Saving Nature has helped local conservation organizations deliver measurable results across global biodiversity hotspots.
Eleven habitat corridors have been established or are under active restoration.
Forest connectivity has been restored for elephants, tigers, tapirs, pumas, and endangered primates.
More than 4,000 hectares have been protected or restored.
Roughly 20,000 tons of carbon dioxide are removed from the atmosphere each year.
Many partners we initially supported now lead corridor restoration independently. That outcome is intentional and central to our approach.
Where We Work
Saving Nature’s projects span the world’s most threatened ecosystems. Each project is grounded in local leadership and long term partnerships.
Brazil’s Atlantic Forest
The Andes of Colombia and Ecuador
Panama’s Darién Gap
Indonesia’s Leuser Ecosystem
Elephant migration routes in Tanzania
India’s Eastern Himalayan foothills
The Appalachian Mountains of the United States
How We Work
Saving Nature is guided by conservation science that identifies where species are most threatened and how habitat loss drives extinction. Most remaining biodiversity survives in small, isolated fragments. Science shows these fragments lose species quickly. Reconnecting them slows those losses. Rather than purchasing intact forests, we focus on restoring degraded land to reconnect forests into viable ecosystems. This approach delivers high conservation impact while strengthening local stewardship.
Why It Matters
Habitat fragmentation is one of the leading drivers of extinction worldwide. Strategic restoration and protection can reverse that trajectory. Ten years of work show that reconnecting forests works. Wildlife returns. Ecosystems stabilize. Local communities gain lasting capacity to protect their landscapes.
