Over the years we supported different conservation projects all over the world. In the last years we focused more in projects for the conservation of WOLF, BEAR and LYNX. All 3 carnivores are coming back to Germany in the last few years. So we have 2 or meanwhile 3 wolvepacks, the first returning bear was shot in 2006, but other will come, and lynx came back even to our local area in the last 5 years. Since more than 10 years, we have a sponsorship for the conservation of bears and wolves in Europe by an organization called EURONATUR and we will become active in conservation of lynx in our local area.

In 8 years of traveling in the west of Canada and Alaska, Klaus Berger came in contact with the conservation of the temperate rainforests of the Pacific Coast. In this huge ancient forests, which are still endangered by clearcut logging, bears, wolves, lynx, cougars and many other species have survived. The costal waters are home to many different sea mammals like whales, seals and sea lions and have the highest density of bald eagles in the world. The heart of the costal rainforest is an area called the GREAT BEAR RAINFOREST, more than 60,000 skm of mostly untouched rainforests. We help to conserve this ancient forests and costal waters by supporting an organization called RAINCOAST SOCIETY with donations and volunteering. In the next years, we will try to offer more help by bringing information about wild forests and forest destruction to the public in our local area in Darmstadt, Germany,  and by involving our children and families at the Outdoor-School Darmstadt in conservation projects. May be we can find our young students a place for volunteering in conservation projects even in Canada.

The number of WILD TIGERS all over Asia has declined from about 100.000 in 1900 to about 5000 today. We help to conserve the last wild tigers by supporting the WWF tiger projects.

We are also supporting the TAIGA RESCUE NETWORK (TRN) by conserving the boreal forests as the living space of bears, wolves, lynx and other wildlife.
