How are the funds used?

All donations are used entirely for the protection of animal species, their habitats, and biodiversity, as well as for research and breeding programs that support conservation efforts.

Donations help fund:

  • Habitat restoration and protection
  • Monitoring and research of endangered species in their natural habitats
  • Anti-poaching measures
  • Reintroduction of species to areas where populations need strengthening or have disappeared
  • Education, sustainable development, and community involvement in conservation

Legacy gift

Do you want to leave a lasting legacy for future generations? Making a gift in your last will, known as a bequest, is a valuable way to support the protection of biodiversity and help animals in need. We primarily hope for bequests to be directed toward the operations of the Wildlife Hospital.
