About Li Quan Wildlife Conservationist

  • Li Quan (??) is a Beijing-born tiger and wildlife conservationist who lives in London.

  • The concept was initially controversial, but it is now widely accepted as a viable strategy for wildlife conservation by many mainstream wildlife organizations including the World Wide Fund for Nature. Quan has founded several charities related to tiger and wildlife conservation.
  • She is now a director of China Tiger Revival.
  • Prior to devoting herself to wildlife conservation she was global head of licensing at the fashion house Gucci.
