Wildlife & Wilderness is featured this week in this article about PAN Parks on the BBC.

Wildlife & Wilderness will soon be bringing a range of European wildlife holidays to the website as a recognised tourism partner of PAN Parks. PAN Parks is a Europe-wide organisation committed to saving the best wilderness areas of the continent. It is doing this through a sustainable tourism programme. As we fully support this initiative are introducing a range of wildlife trips in some of these specific areas soon. In the meantime if you wish to learn more click here.

PanParks is a European NGO that was founded by the WWF to protect the remaining wilderness areas of Europe. Many of these core areas are to be found in national parks from northern Finland to Portugal, Italy and Eastern Europe. They protect important large mammal species such as bear, wolf and lynx as well as much other flora and fauna and it is likely that you will be hearing much more about them in the coming year.

Wildlife & Wilderness director, Dr. Steve Banner, was invited out to the Central Balkans National Park in Bulgaria recently to help formulate the sustainable tourism model which will help provide much needed funds to help protect these important areas. The successful consultancy was carried out with other international tour operators and incoming agents who work in those countries currently with panparks protected areas.

In the coming months we will be introducing some exciting new programmes and each time you travel to one of these areas you can be sure that you are helping to protect the area you are visiting for future generations.
