Emirates SkyCargo has partnered with Dogs 4 Wildlife, a UK-based charity that protects endangered wildlife in Africa with specialist conservation dogs. The first phase of the partnership will see Emirates SkyCargo transport dogs from the UK to Southern Africa, where they will work with wildlife park rangers to track poachers.
The first two dogs, Vega and Kuda, both Belgian Malinois, are specialist human scent tracking dogs trained by Dogs 4 Wildlife for conservation operations and selected for their exceptional drive, determination, and natural tracking abilities. They will help form a new conservation canine unit supporting wildlife protection efforts at Zimbabwe’s Matusadona National Park.
