Yesterday in Isiro, the Judicial Police and the Ministry of Environment, under the authority of @IccnRdc with technical & financial support from @ConservC@Amini16 , arrested great ape traffickers and rescued 2 chimpanzees. The zone is problematic in primates trafficking!
@ConservC has been officially vetted and certified for transparency and compliance with international anti-fraud standards.
A strong step forward for trust, accountability, and conservation impact in Africa.

On a organisé une session de capacitation sur les procédures financières au bureau de Goma, du 27/29 janvier au bénéfice de son personnel financier grace au partenariat WCP/ALINEA, dans le cadre du Projet SIDA pour reinforcer ses capacitates.
fierté & sa gratitude pour @Amini16
On 5 Dec, the Police Judiciaire in Lubumbashi, with support from @ConservC & @IccnRdc , arrested 2 traffickers with 50 kg of ivory smuggled from Zambia.
This comes just after COP20, where CITES rejected attempts to legalize ivory trade.
A cross-border network has been exposed.
Honored to pay tribute to Dr. Jane Goodall at #CITESCoP20. Her courage, curiosity, and compassion continue to inspire conservation across the Congo Basin and beyond. Every primate rescued is a reminder of her lasting legacy. 🦍 @JaneGoodallInst@IPPLprimate@ifawglobal@Amini16
A big win #CITESCoP20: the golden-bellied mangabey has been uplisted to Appendix I.
For us at @ConservC , it’s protection for a species we rescue from traffickers far too often.
Now we need the infrastructure to match the commitment @Amini16@IFAWUK@pasaprimates@Primatesnft
@ConservC & @CongoRecoplast are restoring rivers & mangroves, upcycling plastics, training rangers & raising awareness.
🔹 Next steps: advanced ranger training, community education, protective gear, & sustainable EcoWood use @recycle_now@MarineLife_Aus@MangrovesNow
On this #OkapiDay, we remember the major threats to okapis: mining, poaching and trafficking, lack of international protection (not listed on CITES), poverty, and hunger. Protecting these forest jewels is urgent @IccnRdc@Amini16@okapiproject
Pangolin traffickers in DRC are using electrical testers on live pangolins, claiming the light means “spiritual power.”
In truth, it’s science -all living beings conduct small electric currents.
This myth is fueling poaching & trafficking.

Another baby #bonobo rescued from a poacher in Ikela, #Tshuapa - the 3rd in 60 days. For each baby taken, ~10 adults are killed.
Do the math. Speak out. Act now to protect #bonobos - the DRC’s unique great apes.
@IccnRdc@Lola_ya_Bonobo@Amini16
A bonobo was rescued from a snare in Ikela, Tshuapa .
But poaching & trafficking in Tshuapa & Sankuru are escalating fast.
Bonobos aren’t just great apes-they are guardians of the forests. The forests they protect give us oxygen & life. @IccnRdc@Amini16
We stand with @IccnRdc as it takes bold steps against fake CITES permits & wildlife trafficking. Under the leadership of @YvesMilan a new era of integrity & vigilance is emerging in conservation in DRC. @Amini16@USEmbKinshasa@ParrotFund@pasaprimates@IFAW@CITES
