Greetings,

This is a friendly reminder that you can still sign up for our Year of the Pangolin webinar with best-selling author Amy Tan, WildAid CEO Peter Knights, and WildAid Chief Program Officer John Baker tomorrow, Tuesday, June 16th at 12 (PT). Registration closes at 11 am (PT) on June 16.

Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, pangolins have been in the spotlight due to studies that suggest they could have been an intermediary host for the virus. Last week pangolin scales were removed from an official 2020 listing of ingredients approved for use in Traditional Chinese Medicine and China’s government raised the national protection status of pangolins to the highest level, giving these scaly insect-eaters the same protection as the Giant Panda.

WildAid has been on the front lines of the fight for pangolins since 2016, working to protect the critically endangered mammal from illegal trade and consumption. None of this work is possible without caring people like you. Thank you for your support.

WHAT: Author Amy Tan will moderate a live conversation with WildAid CEO Peter Knights and WildAid Chief Program Officer John Baker. We will discuss the latest COVID/wildlife news, what the added protections mean and what we can expect in the future for these shy, elusive creatures.

Come ready with your questions or send them in advance:

When: Tuesday, June 16, 2020, 12 pm (PT)
(The webinar will be recorded and posted on our website.)
