Shinta Mani Foundation Fundraiser for Conservation with USD11,000 Grand Prize at Bensley Collection



In line with its total commitment to the protection of the forest and wildlife in the South Cardamom National park, Bensley Collection – Shinta Mani Wild and the Shinta Mani Foundation work tirelessly to fund the team of 8 Wildlife Alliance Rangers and the ranger station at the luxury tented camp, supporting their important mission to protect the 865 acres of national park forest from illegal logging and wildlife poaching.

Wildlife Alliance was founded in 1996 by Suwanna Gauntlett who has dedicated her life to wildlife protection around the world.  The partnership between Shinta Mani Wild and Wildlife Alliance is paramount to the camp's ethos.

Some of Cambodia's, and the world's most endangered species still call the Cardamom mountains home, including 54 animals on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Red List. As the forest cover disappears, so does the wildlife. It will take major conservancy of the tropical forest for these fabulous residents to thrive again, but that is the goal of Shinta Mani Wild and Wildlife Alliance.  

A statistics board at the camp shows the number of various items confiscated and animals saved and is updated daily.  As of December 2020 it includes 3757 snares removed, 10 fires put out, 208 chainsaws, 1,767 pieces of illegal timber and 11 guns confiscated, 423 illegal fences dismantled, 82 turtles and 10 civet cats rescued as well as several other species.
