The Safari West Speaker Series is an ongoing part of the conservation mission here at Safari West. Throughout the year we invite scientists, conservationists, advocates, and experts of all kinds to present on conservation efforts from around the world. In the last month, our dinner guests have been invited to sit in on the presentations of several phenomenal conservation advocates. These talks are occasional events that take place after the dinner service at the Savannah Café. With bellies full and curiosities aroused, guests filter into the Elephant Room to learn from some of the world’s most active and engaged conservation agencies.

Recently we were honored to host Robin Parks from the Mountain Lion Foundation, Leigh Moyer from the Center for Biological Diversity, Peter Blinston from the Painted Dog Conservation, Michael Starkey from Save the Frogs, and more!

The lineup of guest speakers appearing later this year continues to grow and grow. This month alone we’ll be hosting Dale Anderson from Project Survival Cathaven for a fascinating presentation about jaguars, Emily Russell from African Wildlife Foundation, and Christ Austria from Ngamba Chimp Sanctuary, with much more to come. If you’d like to come experience one of the immersive talks for yourself, please consult our calendar for the latest.
