The article discusses the author's passion for the Sahara's wildlife and the urgent need for its preservation, particularly the Saharan cheetah and sand cat. The author emphasizes the lack of research on these species, noting the challenges faced in the Sahara's harsh and isolated environment, including landmines and logistical difficulties during expeditions. As the chair of Harmusch Wildlife Research and Conservation, the author leads fieldwork efforts requiring careful planning and considerable resources to promote conservation in the context of climate change, aiming to raise awareness of Saharan wildlife.
Ever since my first visit to the Sahara in Morocco in 2011, I've been enamored with its unique wildlife, particularly the Saharan cheetah and sand cat.
Conservation efforts for Saharan wildlife are crucial, especially in the face of climate change, necessitating a focus on their adaptation to harsh drought conditions.
Our team’s work is pivotal in shedding light on the sand cat, yet we face numerous challenges in conducting ecological research in hazardous environments.
The obstacles posed by the Sahara, including landmines and isolation, require meticulous planning and a resilient team for successful conservation expeditions.
