Global Conservation

All over the world countries face severe problems caused by illegal poaching. These poachers threaten the lives of many endangered animals, sabotaging the biodiversity of our ecosystems. In particular, the rhinos are sought after due to the growing demand for their horns, which can be used for medical purposes. Last year, the death toll rose by 100%. Poachers killed dozens of animals. In light of this tragedy, Zimbabwe removes the horns from the rhinos in its national parks.  While this protective measure should save lives, many rhinos are still in danger and poaching remains a huge problem.

What Our Students Are Saying

“I have been on three of Nancy’s Learn French and Travel programs. Prior to departure, Nancy offers introductory programs, where travelers become acquainted with each other and learn about the regions they will be touring. Before each tour, there is also a wine and cheese tasting where group members become acquainted with the wines and cheeses of the regions to be visited. Nancy’s tours visit buildings and places of historic interest as well as various museums. Nancy’s small groups enjoy comradery and good food. I have found Nancy’s tours to be both educational and enjoyable.”
