More About VetPaw

VETPAW is a group of post 9/11 US veterans with combat skills who are committed to protecting and training park rangers to combat poaching on the ground in Africa.

We empower veterans because their skills learned on the frontlines of war are unrivaled. Our team of highly-trained veterans operate on the ground, legally, with local African park rangers and law enforcement to stop poachers before they act. 

We are committed to educating local communities on the long-term benefits of a thriving wildlife community. On the reserves we protect, we continually support in the monitoring and research of wildlife and endangered species.
