Linda Tucker CEO and Founder

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. Since this time, she has dedicated her life to the urgent protection of the critically endangered White Lions, venerated as the King of Kings by African elders. Despite their rarity and cultural importance, the White Lions have no protected status and may be trophy hunted in the wild and in captivity.

To ensure the survival of this legendary animal, Linda Tucker has raised millions of dollars in a long-term strategy to secure large tracks of protected wilderness territory in the heart of the White Lions’ ancestral heritage lands, in the epic-centre of UNESCO’s Kruger-to-Canyons Biosphere, one of the last viable lion ranges on the planet.The White Lions represent critical conservation and cultural importance in our times, where species globally risk extinction and the future of our own kind is on the brink.

Ecologically, the White Lions are the “Capstone” animal, the tip of the pyramidal food chain, the golden key to the survival of the entire ecosystem.

Spiritually, the White Lions are believed to be King of Kings, luminaries bearing a message of pure golden enlightenment.

Culturally, the Lion is equated with gold as the “king” of metals: leadership and good governance of the earth’s resources.
