Horn und Tusk 
Horn und Tusk was created with the idea that conservation and conflict data should be accessible to everyone — not just researchers, not just donors, not just the already convinced.
We provide actionable information for wildlife conservation and conflict resolution in Cameroon. Through education, advocacy, and the building up of people, our dual aim is to uplift struggling communities while preserving Cameroon's wildlife before it is too late.
Cameroon is often referred to as Africa in Miniature. What is left unsaid is that this statement also applies to the issues it faces.
The problems that plague Cameroon put at risk its vast cultural richness, along with two of the most environmentally important areas on the continent: the Congo Basin and the Lake Chad Basin. Finding solutions in the microcosm of Cameroon is perhaps our best bet for Central Africa as a whole.
We will never abandon communities or species out of fear of failure or fear of harm.
Most international organizations that focus on wildlife or conflict willingly withhold data or manipulate it to ensure their donors only see positive developments. This results in many communities and wildlife populations being abandoned entirely.
We aim to shatter this narrative — acknowledging all struggling populations, being 100% transparent, and only being accountable to our causes.
Our future is a shared future. Right now, communities in the North West, South West, and Far North Regions of Cameroon are losing their future. Right now, multiple species populations are heading towards extinction in the next decade.
It is now or never.
We are committed to being 100% honest — always stating the good and the bad, providing the entire picture, always. No data withheld. No spin for donors.
If our information cannot be understood by everyone — from the top researcher to the street vendor — then it is useless. No dumbing down. No gatekeeping.
Vagueness is complacency. For every project, specific goals will be stated so that success or failure can be determined. Mistakes acknowledged. Progress real.
It's just me right now. That's the honest truth. But it is with great hope that this eventually expands to a full team of talented people looking to make a real change.
I stumbled into this through the pursuit of my four master's degrees, which led me to live and conduct research in South West Region during the summer of 2023. I met people from all walks of life, made lifelong friends, and saw first-hand both the challenges they faced and their perseverance.
I didn't create this out of a desire to "help" or change the world. I created Horn und Tusk to funnel real resources and time to South West — and one day North West — to help rebuild their future. And to challenge the major wildlife conservation NGOs, whose efforts I found during my research to be largely show conservation, leaving many animals out to die.
