In celebration of Disney’s Mufasa: The Lion King, Disney will once again support the Wildlife Conservation Network’s (WCN) Lion Recovery Fund (LRF) and LRF’s partners working across Africa to double the number of lions in the wild by 2050. Since Disney’s animated classic The Lion King was first released in theaters 30 years ago, Africa has lost half of its lions. LRF will support the efforts of local communities in Africa to conserve lions on behalf of the world.

Thanks to your support of Disney’s The Lion King “Protect the Pride” campaign in 2019, the LRF has been able to expand its reach and has now funded more than 300 projects working across 25 countries in Africa.
