Uniting for Impact

For three decades, the nonprofit Madagascar Fauna and Flora Group (MFG) has achieved this mission through a membership-based collaboration of zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, and related institutions. 

The MFG operates Parc Ivoloina and has a partnership with Madagascar National Parks to conduct conservation research in the Betampona Natural Reserve.

The Tennessee Aquarium and the MFG

The Tennessee Aquarium supports our programs as Contributing Member institution providing the Bronze Level of support for our efforts.

​MFG can only achieve our mission with the long-term support of our Members like the Tennessee Aquarium. 

Conservation Action

From participating in international efforts for endangered plants and animals to reintroducing lemurs, the MFG supports diverse strategies to conserve biodiversity.

With a team of over 100 staff on the ground, we both operate long-term efforts like reforestation as well as respond quickly to care for wildlife in need.

Student Success

The MFG Saturday School program provides supplemental instruction in mathematics, French, science, and environmental issues.

This help has enabled thousands of rural children to pass the exam to advance into secondary school.

And that gives a child hope and opportunities for a better life.

Practical Research

The global need to better understand nature has consequences from addressing emerging health crises to containing invasive species that cost economies billions of dollars.  

Along with our own direct research, the MFG has staff expertise and existing infrastructure to assist numerous scientists in their diverse research efforts.
