African Wildlife Management & Conservation | "For every beast of the forest is mine, the cattle on a thousand hills. I know all the birds of the hills, and all that moves in the field is mine." Psalm 50v8-9

Who we are

AWMC is a Christian, family-run game capture and wildlife management team based near Harare, Zimbabwe. Established in 2006, the team answered the Zimbabwean wildlife industry’s need for an independent operator able to relocate large numbers of wild animals across a range of species.

Our people are our greatest strength (meet them here). Our directors and employees bring extensive wildlife management experience. We are a small, family-owned business, with one valued shareholder outside the family. We believe strong relationships with clients, employees and industry stakeholders are central to our success.

What we do

Since its founding, the company has successfully relocated and managed thousands of animals despite Zimbabwe’s challenging and turbulent conditions. We are one of the few capture teams in Southern Africa capable of moving animals up to and including entire elephant family herds.

We believe in conservation through the sustainable use of wildlife and recognize that wildlife must have value for this approach to succeed. Our services aim to add value, protect wildlife and its environment, and educate people about the importance, value and relevance of wild animals and their habitats. We work closely with industry stakeholders, including the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, to achieve these goals.

We oppose animal cruelty and condone their welfare. We continually seek better ways to relocate game, reducing stress and minimizing deaths—with zero deaths as our goal.

We value sound, transparent and genuine research and welcome opportunities to accommodate and assist researchers in our field. To discuss potential research ideas or options, please contact us.

We are a fully commercial, self-funded organization supported entirely by income from our services. Staying in business in Zimbabwe has been extremely challenging. Although some may find it unusual, we credit our survival to God’s grace in our lives and business.
