埃塞俄比亚狼保护计划 EWCP

Ethiopian wolves are only found in the mountains of Ethiopia, where some 500 survive in small populations threatened by habitat loss and diseases.

They are the guardians of the roof of Africa. By protecting them we safeguard many fascinating Afroalpine endemics from extinction.

　　埃塞俄比亚狼只生活在埃塞俄比亚的山区，由于栖息地丧失和疾病的威胁，大约只有500只[2022.2 IUCN:197只]埃塞俄比亚狼以小种群形式生存。

　　他们是非洲屋脊的守护者。通过保护它们，我们保护了许多迷人的非洲高山特有物种免于灭绝。

about us | 关于我们

EWCP was founded in 1995 by Claudio Sillero and Karen Laurenson, building on research undertaken on the previous decade and a realisation that these animals were so rare and threatened that they required a special programme to secure their persistence.

Today EWCP is recognised as a world leader in the field of carnivore conservation.

1995年，Claudio Sillero和Karen Laurenson在过去十年的研究基础上建立了EWCP，他们意识到这些动物是如此罕见并受到威胁，因此需要一个特殊的保护计划来确保它们的存在并延续。
今天，EWCP被公认为是食肉动物保护领域的重要领导者之一。

The Ethiopian Wolf Conservation Programme (EWCP) is a partnership between the University of Oxford’s Wildlife Conservation Research Unit (WildCRU) and the Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority (EWCA), which provides an ideal platform from which to address wildlife conservation. The EWCP operates under the auspices of the IUCN SSC Canid Specialist Group, and additionally collaborates with the University of Addis Ababa, Bahir Dar, Debre Zeit, Gonder, Jimma, and Wondo Genet in Ethiopia, and Universities of Glasgow, Leiden, Rollins College, Royal Veterinary College, South Bohemia, the Ethiopian Public Health Institute and Animal and Plant Health Agency (UK), among others.

　　埃塞俄比亚狼保护计划（EWCP）是牛津大学野生动物保护研究单位（WildCRU）和埃塞俄比亚野生动物保护管理局（EWCA）合作构建的组织，为解决野生动物保护问题提供了一个理想的平台。EWCP在IUCN SSC[IUCN Species Survival Commission，世界自然保护联盟物种生存委员会]犬科动物专家组的领导下运作，并与埃塞俄比亚的Addis Ababa亚的斯亚贝巴大学、Bahir Dar巴赫达尔大学、Debre Zeit德布雷塞特大学、Gonder贡德尔大学、吉马大学和錫達馬州[ref：Wondo Genet]大学、格拉斯哥大学、莱顿大学、罗林斯学院、南波希米亚皇家兽医学院、埃塞俄比亚公共卫生研究所和动植物卫生部（英国）等机构合作。

EWCP operates in Ethiopia under Memoranda of Understanding agreements between the WildCRU and the Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority （EWCA) at a federal level, and the Oromia Forest and Wildlife Enterprise (OFWE) and Amhara Culture, Tourism and Parks Development Bureau at a regional level. In addition, EWCP works closely with the Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS) and the Born Free Foundation Ethiopia (BFFE). EWCP has long-established excellent working relationships with all these organisations. In addition, the Programme seeks the support and cooperation of local authorities for all field activities in all areas.

　　根据WildCRU与埃塞俄比亚野生动物保护局（EWCA）在联邦层面的谅解备忘录协议，以及奥罗米亚森林和野生动物公司（OFWE）与阿姆哈拉文旅和公园发展局在地区层面的谅解备忘录协议，EWCP得以建立并在埃塞俄比亚运作。此外，EWCP与法兰克福动物学会（FZS）和埃塞俄比亚生而自由基金会（BFFE）有着密切合作。长期以来EWCP与所有这些组织建立了良好的工作关系。此外，我们也寻求各地当局在各个领域的支持与合作。

EWCP has been chiefly funded by the Born Free Foundation (since 1995) and the Wildlife Conservation Network (WCN - since 2002), as well as many other generous donors.

　　EWCP主要由生而自由基金会（自1995年以来）和野生动物保护网（WCN，自2002年以来）以及许多其他慷慨的捐助者资助。

our vision | 我们的愿景

Safeguarding the future of natural habitats for the benefit of wildlife and people in the highlands of Ethiopia 

保护自然栖息地，造福埃塞俄比亚高原的野生动物和人民。

Our mission is to secure viable and ecologically functioning Ethiopian wolf populations and habitats, and to emphasise its role as a flagship for the conservation and sustainable use of the Afroalpine ecosystem, on which present and future generations of Ethiopians also depend.

　　我们的使命是保护仍有机会的和具有生态功能的埃塞俄比亚狼种群及其栖息地，并强调其在非洲高原生态保护和可持续生态利用的重要地位，埃塞俄比亚的当代和后代也依赖于这个生态系统。

In the historic city of Lalibela a strategic plan was agreed in 2011, setting the priorities for Ethiopian wolf conservation in the next 10 years. The goals in the National Action Plan remain our guide and motivation:

　　2011年，在历史名城拉利贝拉达成了一项战略计划，确定了未来10年埃塞俄比亚狼保护的优先地位。《国家行动计划》的目标仍然是我们前进的方向指导和动力源泉：

√ All existing Ethiopian wolf populations secured, not at risk of immediate extinction, with genetic diversity maintained, and the number of wolf packs increased

√ 所有现有埃塞俄比亚狼种群得到保护，脱离灭绝风险，保护遗传多样性，使狼群数量有所增加

√ Ethiopian wolves actively managed as a metapopulation, including wherever possible the restoration of wolves to available habitat within their historical range

√ 埃塞俄比亚狼作为一个异质种群[斑块生境中存在隔离，彼此间通过个体扩散而相互联系的同种局部小种群的集合体]进行有效管理，包括尽可能使狼在其历史范围内的可用栖息地内恢复

√ Afroalpine habitats protected from further degradation, conserved, and restored

√ 保护和恢复非洲高山生境，防止进一步退化

√ Coexistence of wolves, people and their livestock fostered throughout the species’ range

√ 在整个物种分布范围内建立狼、人及其牲畜共存的共存生态

√ All stakeholders, especially decision makers at the national, regional, and local levels, involved in, and committed to conserving wolves and their habitat

√ 所有利益攸关方，特别是国家、区域和地方各级的决策者，参与并致力于保护狼及其栖息地

√ Mechanisms developed to fairly share, across generations, the costs and benefits of wolf and Afroalpine conservation

√ 建立机制，以在代际间公平分担狼和非洲高山保护的成本和收益
