Dear John
After 38 years working for wild animals in need, you’d have thought it might – just might – be getting easier! But the world is a tough place when it comes to saving nature. |
Of course, there have been some big ‘wins’ along the way which inspire us all to keep going. The end of the legal international ivory trade. An end to the UK exploitation of wild animals in circuses and dolphins in dolphinaria. The number of wild lions in Kenya is up and Kenya’s elephant population has doubled since 1989. Wild tigers are slowly increasing across much of their range. |

In 1984, we were mocked as a ‘nine-day wonder’. Well 13,870 days later – we’re still here, stronger than ever! Why? Because of you. You make our work for animals possible.
And, while global crises of our own making make for desperately troubling news, we must not put off until tomorrow what needs to be done today: ending animal suffering, saving threatened species and offering an inclusive vision of compassion and respect. |
