Felidae is committed to protecting endangered wildlife
For the preservation of the most species-rich forests
Since 2023, Felidae has been working with the Wilderness International Foundation on a mission to protect critically endangered and ecologically valuable wilderness areas in Peru. The Felidae Rainforest in the Madre de Dios region of Peru now protects valuable rainforest and, with it, the habitat for a huge variety of species, while also promoting a stable climate.
How many square meters of forest can we protect together?
From code to forest
Did you receive a code from Felidae with your order? You can redeem it here for your own square meter of rainforest!
Felidae (Europe) GmbH, based in northern Hamburg, develops, produces, and markets school bags for elementary and secondary school students, as well as kindergarten bags and student backpacks. For every product sold, Felidae protects one square meter of rainforest in our protected areas. As a long-term conservation partner, Felidae supports Wilderness International in preserving valuable rainforests in both Canada and Peru.

Impressions from the rainforest
The rainforest area protected by Felidae is located in the Madre de Dios region of Peru. There are 10 times more reptiles and amphibians there than in Germany, approximately 10% of all bird species in the world can be observed here, and approximately 400 tree species can be found on one hectare of forest, more than in the whole of Europe north of the Alps.
When the sun rises over the rainforest along the Tambopata River, the forest begins to breathe.
The rainforest along the Tambopata River is home to 10% of the world's bird species - a veritable El Dorado of biodiversity.
Weighing up to 75 kg, capybaras are the largest rodents in the world.

Transparency
Why old-growth forest protection with WI?
Felidae was particularly impressed by Wilderness International's transparent and concrete use of donations: a €1 donation protects 1m² old-growth forest forever. Donors receive a certificate with the geocoordinates and an aerial photo of the protected forest area, as well as a tax-deductible donation receipt.
