CARACAL is a field based non-governmental organization, which was started in 2001 in recognition of the need to integrate traditional and scientific understanding of natural resources and promote partnership between Government and local communities in natural resource management.

Our programs focus on mitigation of human wildlife conflict, community based monitoring of natural resources and strengthening of CBNRM benefit streams and governance for improved rural livelihoods. CARACAL is the only indigenous conservation and rural development NGO in the Chobe Linyanti Kwando Wetlands within the Zambezi Basin.
