COVID-19 has devastated our lives. But what caused the outbreak? A bat? A pangolin?

No – it was us. Because of our treatment of nature.

It's estimated that as many as 1.7 million unidentified viruses exist in animals. 

Any one of these could be the cause of the next pandemic.

As an essential first step, wildlife markets must close. The shutters need to come down – for good. We must learn. We must re-educate ourselves. We must act. Now.

When we protect them all, we protect ourselves.
