Lions of The Seleton Coast
Alpha, Bravo and Charly starring in award-winning film “Lions of the Skeleton Coast”
When Desert lion cubs Alpha, Bravo and Charly were born in November 2015, no one could have ever thought they would one day become the most phenomenal storytellers of all time.
When they lost their mother at ten months old, The Desert Lion Trust had little hope for their future. While Philip closely monitored the orphaned cubs, he was once again joined by wildlife filmmakers Will & Lianne Steenkamp, who had previously made “Vanishing Kings – Lions of the Namib”.

Welcome to Desert Lion Conservation
Desert Lion Conservation, or the “Desert Lion Project”, as it is often referred to, is a small non-profit organisation dedicated to the conservation of desert - adapted lions in the Northern Namib and at the Skeleton Coast. Our main focus is to collect important base-line ecological data on the lion population and to study their behaviour, biology and adaptation to survive in the harsh environment. We then use this information to collaborate with other conservation bodies in the quest to find a solution to human-lion conflict, to elevate the tourism value of lions, and to contribute to the conservation of the species.
