Adopt an Animal
Adopt an animal & you can help support charities who are working to help protect the animals they represent by enabling them to carry out work such as:
- campaign on their behalf at local, national and international level
- educating today's children on the wonders and importance of nature - creating resources for teachers to use such as the Big School Birdwatch
- moving them from one area to another, for instance in places of conflict or pressure on land space
- helping charities protect an area of the sea to give fish a chance to re-stock
- Rescuing sick or injured animals
