Protection of wildlife in Africa
Vreugdenhil Bulbs & Plants made a conscious decision to support the Zambian Carnivore Project. "As a company, we have a strong connection with Africa, partly through our collaboration with African Amaryllis bulb growers. We see it as our responsibility to do something for the biodiversity of this beautiful continent," says Jochem Vreugdenhil. "The ZCP is a key player in carnivore conservation, with impressive results. In the past year, for instance, they tracked as many as 1,176 carnivores in three different ecosystems." The ZCP is committed to conservation through research, awareness, and education. Marjolijn Vreugdenhil: "The ZCP does a fantastic job in educating people and raising awareness of how important carnivores are in maintaining the ecosystem."
