(Tanzania, Arusha) SFS: Carnivores of the African Plains (Summer Session II)

On this program, you will study the behavioral ecology and conservation challenges facing the incredible wildlife, while observing some of Africa’s largest remaining carnivore guilds up close. 

To do this, you will embark on a multi-day camping expedition in Serengeti National Park, participating in field lectures and exercises to learn the dynamics of the carnivore guilds of the Serengeti. On a second camping expedition, visit Tarangire and learn the behavioral ecology of the African lion at the Tarangire Lion Project field research station. You will also have the opportunity to deepen your understanding of policy and legal frameworks’ influence on environmental conservation and wildlife management paradigms over time.
