Climate change, habitat destruction and pollution are pushing wild animals closer to the edge. But together, we can help protect their future.

How animals are being pushed to the edge

Animals on the edge in Brazil

Wildfires in Brazil are destroying habitats and forcing animals like jaguars, giant anteaters and sloths to flee for their lives. Wildlife rescue teams need specialist training and equipment to respond when disaster strikes. 

Animals on the edge in Cameroon

The Mintom Forest in Cameroon is home to gorillas, chimpanzees and countless other species. Logging, mining and hunting continue to threaten this vital ecosystem. 

Animals on the edge in Thailand

Along Thailand's Andaman coast, fewer than 150 dugongs remain. The loss of vital seagrass meadows is putting their future at risk.

 

The difference is that animals cannot just leave 

We share the same planet and increasingly the same environmental challenges. But while people can adapt, animals depend entirely on the habitats around them.

As forests disappear, oceans become polluted and temperatures rise, wildlife is being pushed closer to the edge. 

With your support, we can help protect animals before it's too late.

Different threats. Different species. One shared world.
