The Cape Leopard Trust - Using research as a tool for conservation & finding solutions to human-wildlife conflict

Quinton Martins

Dr Quinton Martins is the co-founder, CEO and Cederberg Project Manager of the Cape Leopard Trust. Quinton (PhD Zoology, University of Bristol) has worked in wilderness areas throughout Africa.

His work has ranged from guiding and managing safari camps in Botswana to research work in Central Africa. During this time Quinton was fortunate enough to track, observe, photograph and work with many leopards and it is here that his passion for these elusive creatures was born.

He completed his PhD through the University of Bristol, U.K. and has been researching leopards in the Cederberg mountains since 2003.
