The leopard fills the
role of the apex predator in the Western Cape ecosystem and acts as an
“umbrella species” which will effectively help in the conservation of
smaller, lower profile predators.
Its
resilience to persecution notwithstanding, the leopard has suffered
extensive range loss in the Cape and is now extinct in many areas of the
province where it formerly occurred. The species is routinely and
regularly removed from farms with little knowledge of population or
genetic status, whether removals are sustainable or whether the factors
giving rise to conflict are established.
The
Cape Leopard Trust aims to optimally facilitate conservation of the Cape's
predator diversity through simultaneously implementing conservation
strategies, research projects and tourism initiatives.
Furthermore it seeks to educate and encourage the youth of disadvantaged
communities to have a vested interest in the environment.
