The loss of half the lions in Africa over the past 25 years demands that the best collaborative investments and actions forward for the recovery of lions and the restorations of their landscapes are made.
LeoVegas Group has donated the sum of 10,000 Euro towards the Lion Recovery Fund. Created by the Wildlife Conservation Network in partnership with the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, the Lion Recovery Fund supports game-changing conservation actions.
The Lion Recovery Fund aspires to double the number of lions in Africa, regaining those lions lost over the past 25 years. “Together we are committed to seeing thriving savannah landscapes where Africa’s people, its economic development and its lions all co-exist,” said the mobile casino and sports betting company.
Leo Initiative aims to make a difference for lions. With the lion population falling to critical levels, companys’s goal is to ensure the survival of the king of beasts. The Leo Initiative is supporting two organisations: the Wildlife Conservation Network and Emoya Big Cat Sanctuary. In 2017 LeoVegas Mobile Gaming Group adopted two lions; Omar and Bruno.
“With the aim of doubling the lion population by 2050, we are supporting the Wildlife Conservation Network’s Lion Recovery Fund. This project is working to protect lion habitats and reduce conflicts between wildlife and the growing human population.
