News from the field

Several months ago, Palmyre Conservation decided to partner with the Pan African Sanctuary Alliance (PASA) to support its efforts to fight the illegal primate trade.

As part of the Red Ruffed Lemur Conservation Program developed in Madagascar by several partners, a new milestone was reached at the end of 2025 with the translocation and release of 3 new lemurs into the Farankaraina forest.

In July, the peak period for hatching and chick-rearing, numerous Kentish Plover families were observed on the Côte Sauvage, Île d'Oléron, Saint-Froult, and Île de Ré.

Thanks to camera traps set up by our conservation partner, the Sepanguy Association, and funded by Palmyre Conservation as part of the study of the giant otter population, we were able to capture remarkable images of the secretive fauna of the Pripris of Yiyis in French Guiana.

On the beaches of Charente-Maritime, a discreet bird races against time every spring to make it chicks hatch hidden from view... and the footsteps of walkers. The Kentish Plover, a small coastal wader weighing barely 45g, lays its eggs directly on the sand.
