With leadership and results dating back to 1895, <strong>WCS</strong> has evolved into the world’s<br />
most comprehensive wildlife conservation organization. The additive strength derived<br />
from our parks, our field conservation work, and our global health network<br />
is unparalleled. yet we could never do this work and achieve these results without<br />
the collaboration and support of hundreds of partners. With offices across<br />
the globe, <strong>WCS</strong> is well positioned to engage with REPRESENTATIVES OF GOVERNMENT<br />
AND civil society whose goals align with our science-based conservation mission.<br />
Throughout our 117-year<br />
history, such collaborations have<br />
helped us achieve real results<br />
– from establishing the Alaska<br />
National <strong>Wildlife</strong> Refuge and<br />
some of Latin America’s first<br />
reserves for penguins and marine<br />
mammals, to protecting<br />
nearly one-third of all tropical<br />
coral species threatened with<br />
extinction and supporting<br />
alternative livelihoods that<br />
supplant the incentive to poach<br />
elephants, gorillas, and lions<br />
in sub-Saharan Africa. While<br />
we cannot feature all of the<br />
organizations, institutions, and<br />
government bodies with whom<br />
we maintain a collaborative<br />
strategy, most of our partners<br />
are listed below. We remain<br />
grateful for the assistance from<br />
all those who share in our<br />
work to conserve our last wild<br />
places and the animals that live<br />
there for future generations.<br />
