The George Adamson & Tony Fitzjohn Wildlife Trust represents a spirit of dynamic ‘hands on’ conservation. We partner with local wildlife authorities on long-term and field-based rehabilitation programmes to restore degraded wildlife areas, enhance African wildlife conservation, establish and manage programmes for vulnerable and endangered species, and invest in adjacent communities to promote the benefits of active conservation.

The Trust in Kenya is currently working in partnership with the Kenya Wildlife Service to apply these actions in Kora National Park. This project, together with a focussed outreach and education programme, does not simply attempt to hold the line on conservation; it is an ambitious endeavour to re-establish a complete ecosystem, thereby reversing historical damage.

We possess the experience and relevant skills following our highly successful thirty-year programme in Tanzania. This internationally-renowned project involved the transformation of the vast Mkomazi Game Reserve into a thriving National Park. It has enabled us to master the techniques of revival and renewal in order that an ecosystem becomes self-sustaining. We are harnessing all that experience, and putting it to the best possible use in Kora today.

We believe the Kora Project is one of the most valuable endeavours in African conservation today. But we need your support if we are to succeed and invite you to join us on our journey of restoration and renewal.

Our Objectives

The core objectives of The George Adamson & Tony Fitzjohn Wildlife Trust:

Wildlife Conservation – partnering with wildlife authorities to restore degraded wildlife areas and protect the wildlife and habitat
Rehabilitation of Ecosystems – supporting the development of Park infrastructure for the long-term rehabilitation of the ecosystem

The Trust is proud of its significant contribution to science and the education it provides, resulting from its work in Kora National Park, Kenya, and Mkomazi National Park, Tanzania. The Mkomazi Project is recognised as an international model for rehabilitation and conservation, and the same principles are being applied to the restoration of Kora today.
