In the global crisis that treats lions as a killing commodity in cross-border trade, Linda Tucker has dedicated her life to the solution. 

After being rescued by a Tsonga medicine woman from a life-threatening encounter with a pride of lions in 1991, Linda Tucker gave up a career in international marketing to become a conservationist. She has dedicated her life to ensuring the well-being of the critically endangered White Lions, regarded as sacred animals, yet amongst the world’s most targeted trophy.

Over 3 decades, she has campaigned for their sovereignty against the legalized malpractices in South Africa’s notorious cuddle-and-kill industry. 

She’s raised millions of dollars to secure vast wilderness in the heart of UNESCO’s Kruger-to-Canyons Biosphere, where she and her team have successfully reintroduced White Lions back to their natural ecosystem. 

Her pioneering initiatives include the establishment of the Academy for LionHearted Leadership™ and the StarLion eco-educational program for emerging youth leadership.Learn more about Linda and the White Lions at her website:  https://whitelions.org/
