Dr. Paula Kahumbu stands at the forefront of wildlife conservation, serving as the passionate and visionary CEO of WildlifeDirect. Known for her indomitable spirit in the fight against elephant poaching and ivory trafficking, she has led significant campaigns such as the “Hands Off Our Elephants” initiative alongside Kenyan First Lady Margaret Kenyatta. Educated in ecology and evolutionary biology, Kahumbu’s journey from studying primates to becoming an influential figure in conservation was inspired by her early mentorship under Richard Leakey. Her role extends beyond leadership; as a National Geographic Explorer and trustee, educator, and children’s book author, Dr. Kahumbu embodies the relentless pursuit of a harmonious coexistence between humans and wildlife. Our interview delves into Dr. Kahumbu’s passionate commitment to elephants and her innovative efforts to protect wildlife.
