Hosted a fascinating side event at #CMSCoP15, where I am representing @BornFreeFDN.
We discussed reasons why Earth's oldest, wisest animals should be conserved, especially when they hold knowledge of migration routes and how best to survive.
Respect the elders!

⚠️@EUombudsman just opened an investigation into @EU_Commission's lowering of wolf protections, following our complaint. The downgrading procedure lacked proper consultation & scientific backing, yet another case of potential maladministration.

Tree growing contributes to habitat restoration and protection, and the provision of alternative income through fruit harvesting. We aim to supply the community with fast-growing varieties that are suitable and ecologically appropriate for the area.

Trail hunting is a smokescreen for hunting foxes– it's wildlife crime , plain & simple .
With a new government we have a real chance for change – use our letter template to write to your MP urging for a ban now lovera.ge/foxhunting
It's time to end to this vile 'sport' .

Today is deeply poignant day for our charity as we remember George Adamson, known as Baba ya Simba, the ‘Father of Lions’, who was killed near his remote camp in Northern Kenya, on this day in 1989.
