Protecting Africa's wildlife and park rangers

Founded in 2015 by Sergio Lopez, a former french special force soldier, expert in personal protection and tourist guide in Africa for many years, Wildlife Angel is dedicated to protect both wildlife and park rangers facing increasing threats.

Protect wildlife

This is the first objective of our actions. We implement operational solutions to ensure the sustainability of the fauna and save Africa's endangered species.
