As the year 2023 came to a close a couple of days ago, the conservation community celebrated some big wins termed “Conservation Triumphs 2023”.
Information obtained from the X handle of Wild Africa Fund showed that one of the big wins is the return of blue whales to Seychelles.
“Once on the brink, blue whales make a remarkable comeback in the Seychelles, offering hope for their future,” submitted the group.
Another big win is the Scimitar-Horned Oryx thriving in Chad.
“From extinct-in-the-wild to making-a-comeback! Chad celebrates the success of reintroducing scimitar-horned oryx, a testament to global conservation collaboration,” Wild Africa Fund said.
The third big win in 2023 is the rescue of Giant Pangolins in Kenya.
“Rediscovering giants! Kenya’s Pangolin Project leads efforts to protect the endangered giant ground pangolin, emphasising the link between community and wildlife well-being,” posted the group.
