## Wild Camel Protection Foundation 

Trustee Report 

2023- 2024 

The Wild Camel Protection Foundation was finally able when the border opened to send the Mongolian Director Dr Adiya Yadamsuren to China to source the materials for the construction of the second captive wild camel breeding centre at Toli bulag in the Buffer Zone of the Great Gobi Area of Special Protection ‘A’ . 

Praha Zoo has generously agreed to fund the Enclosure fencing materials steel poles, strong mesh and metal gates. WCPF will fund the cost of the workmen who will  erect the fence around the 65 hectare site, the wooden buildings for hay storage, the centre house which will be the office and provide staff accommodation and the water points. 

The WCPF scientific team are now working on the of wild group being moved to the new centre . The group being translocated will include two young breeding age wild camel males, and five to seven breeding age wild camel females. 

The WCPF scientific team think it is necessary for several reasons to have two captive wild camel breeding centres both situated in the Buffer Zone of the Great Gobi Area of Special Protection ‘A’. This area is the only habitat where of the remaining remnant population of IUCN critically endangered wild camels can now be found. 

A huge thank you to all the Zoos worldwide which have supported our work to protect the wild camels.
