National Geographic has created an emergency fund to help avert a potential conservation disaster: the complete loss of lions in and around Amboseli National Park, one of Kenya's most important tourist destinations. In partnership with Explorers-in-Residence Dereck and Beverly Joubert, the Society is committed to working with local Maasai tribespeople to save these majestic animals. Here's a message from the Jouberts. Learn more about this conservation crisis and help save the Amboseli lions today.
