Palau is a perfect example of how “Eco Tourism” can assist in sustaining endangered species. In 2009, Palau became the world’s first national shark sanctuary, ending all commercial shark fishing in their waters and giving a sanctuary for sharks to live and reproduce in our 237,000 square miles of ocean. Witness the wonders of Palau’s seventeen species of sharks that thrive because of the efforts of dedicated individuals that have worked towards the goal of protecting these amazing creatures.
Palau is a wonderful story of proof that individual and organisations can and do make a difference.
At Endangered Adventures we work actively to work with local communities finding ways to make meaningful contributions to the sustainable conservation of the worlds endangered species. One of the first points of discussion with local partners is “how can we work together to contribute”.
A percentage (up to 10%) of all trip profits are invested directly back into the support of each of the species that we visit. In addition to investment we are continually working on ways to make that tangible difference.
Some examples of our projects Include:
• Tree planting in Kalimantan
• Working with local groups to acquire large tracts of jungle/forest to ensure natural vegetation
• Free education seminars to interested groups (contact for bookings)
