Giving Tuesday is coming up and to celebrate, WildAid is proudly highlighting the work of our partners. Partnerships are critical to advancing our mission to protect wildlife from illegal trade and other imminent threats.
Veterinarian and conservationist Mark Ofua runs the SaintMark's Animal Hospital and Shelter in Lagos, Nigeria. Mark is dedicated to helping all animals, both domestic and wild. Sick pangolins rescued from the wildlife trade are often brought to the shelter and nursed back to health. To support Mark and this work, WildAid has funded the building of a "pangolorum," the first of its kind in West Africa. This area serves as a soft site for rescued pangolins being reintroduced into the wild.
WildAid is offering you an exciting opportunity to help name two new rescued baby pangolins this giving season. With a donation of $50 or more, you will get to vote on the names submitted. For every $500 or more donation made, you can submit a name for consideration for one of the baby pangolins!
