A groundbreaking WWF study revealed that nearly 3 billion animals were killed or displaced during the 2019–2020 Australian wildfires. The catastrophe included mammals, birds, reptiles, and frogs, making it one of the worst wildlife disasters in modern history.

According to WWF’s Living Planet Report, global wildlife populations have dropped by nearly 70% in the last five decades, with habitat loss and climate change as key drivers.

Wars don’t only displace humans — they also devastate animal populations, cutting off migration routes, destroying habitats, and forcing wildlife into danger zones.

ZSL’s Instant Detect 2.0 combines AI-equipped camera traps and satellite connectivity to monitor remote areas and alert rangers in real time to wildlife crime threats.

Airbus and the Connected Conservation Foundation use high-resolution satellite imagery and AI to detect poaching, map wildlife habitats, and empower conservationists in remote areas.

Developed by UN Global Pulse and UNOSAT, PulseSatellite is a collaborative toolkit using human-AI feedback loops to analyze satellite imagery quickly across disasters—mapping shelters, floods, and damage in crisis zones.
