Les Carlisle

Les Carlisle currently holds the position of Group Conservation Manager with & Beyond formerly known as Conservation Corporation Africa, an African based Wildlife Tourism company. Les started his career in wildlife translocation in 1980 and spent seven years catching African wildlife to be relocated to new private game reserves. He then moved into wildlife management and endangered species breeding with a tourism base and then was employed by CCA to build the first game reserve to attempt to prove that wildlife was a better option than ranching in marginal rainfall areas of Africa. Les sits on the management boards of two major private game reserves, one in South Africa and one in Namibia. He has 25 years of experience in the industry.
