And that’s helping to save endangered animals from extinction. Can you imagine there not being any more rhinos or orangutans left in the wild? No, nor can we and that’s why we need to take action NOW to protect them.
Without these projects we could lose some of the world’s most incredible animals and plants forever, but together we CAN help save them.

In Assam, the Asian elephant faces some of the most extreme human-elephant conflict in the world. Over the last 60 years the number of Asian elephants has halved and their population continues to decline.
With so many of its animal and plant species only being found on the islands, Mauritius (and its neighbouring island, Rodrigues) is a biodiversity ‘hotspot’. That means they urgently require continued and increased protection.
There is more than a third of the 6600 known amphibian species threatened with extinction. This is thought to be one of the greatest conservation challenges we have ever faced.
It’s not just exotic animals in countries like Africa and Indonesia that are threatened with extinction. It’s reported that England alone has lost around 500 species since 1800.
With the western black rhino thought to have become extinct in the wild in the last few years, conservation of the eastern black rhino is now paramount if we are to save these animals from becoming extinct too.
In the last century 50% of the forests in which Bornean orangutans once lived in have been lost, pushing the species towards extinction and leaving them quite literally hanging on for their lives.
