The Manatee Rehabilitation Centre falls under the Wildtracks
Conservation Programme, which has as its objective the long
term protection of biodiversity of Belize. The Centre is
managed in partnership with the Belize Marine Mammal
Stranding Network, overseen by the National Manatee
Working Group.
Wildtracks funds the majority of its activities through its
consultancy wing, focused on projects that fall within the
overall mission and objectives of the organization. Where
necessary, however, Wildtracks also seeks grants to fund
specific projects.
