Morocco's wildlife — reptiles and amphibians

Shining light on Morocco's wildlife

Bringing little-known animals into the light, from the field to the frame. Because we only protect what we know. A team of dedicated young naturalists.

Conservation begins with access to knowledge.

Our main project

A visual, free and online encyclopedia of Morocco's herpetofauna

Overlooked or persecuted, often out of ignorance, Morocco's reptiles and amphibians face growing threats. One species at a time, we make this knowledge accessible to everyone — because there can be no conservation without education.
