African Wild Dog Conservancy : ウィキペディア英語版 | African Wild Dog Conservancy The African Wild Dog Conservancy (AWD Conservancy) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), non-governmental organization, working with local communities, and national and international stakeholders, to conserve the African wild dog through scientific research and education. ==Community Project== The AWD Conservancy has a community-based conservation project in the North Eastern and Coast provinces of Kenya in two biodiversity hotspots. This region is a rich mosaic of protected areas and community lands under extreme threat, with at least 70% of the original habitat degraded. Due to past civil strife little is known about the many threatened species there. This area is a potentially significant refuge for wild dogs and an important corridor for the metapopulation of the Horn of Africa, as well as for other threatened wildlife species. Virtually nothing is known about the conservation status and ecology of wild dogs in this region, including their interactions with people. This project has been identified as a wild dog conservation priority by the IUCN/SSC Canid Specialist Group〔Sillero-Zubiri, C., Hoffmann, M. and Macdonald, D.W. (2004) ''Canids: Foxes, Wolves, Jackals and Dogs: Status Survey and Conservation Action Plan.'' IUCN/SSC Canid Specialist Group, IUCN, Gland, Switzerland and Cambridge, UK, pp. 335-336 (http://www.canids.org/cap/index.htm#On-line Copy of the Action Plan)〕 and the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA)/Wild Dog Species Survival Program.〔''African Wild Dog SSP Report'', http://www.africanwilddogssp.com/ssp/documents/SSP_Report_2007.pdf.〕
