We’ve been blessed with 7 wild-born babies in 2024: calves born to orphans rescued, raised, & rewilded through our Orphans’ Project. Among them, Mwangaza, mothered by Voi matriarch Mweya. Now a month old, mum and her 2 daughters - firstborn Mwitu on the left - have remained in the area since the birth, so we’ve enjoyed lots of visits like this one earlier!

Another senseless & utterly devastating trophy kill 😔 🦒 #BanTrophyHunting @adamjcruise

[Robb Edwards 🌱 @RobRobbEdwards]

Among the shocking photos of Trophy Hunting in Africa is a young boy holding the severed head of a giraffe - which is almost as big as the child himself.

Very bleak to see this happening in Ireland 🌳 ancient forests are the most incredible carbon capturers & yet this decimation continues unabated 😰

[Eoghan Daltun 🌍 @IrishRainforest]

Killarney NP: Ireland's largest ancient rainforest, and an international treasure.

But for over 50 years, the *Irish state* has allowed it to die from severe overgrazing.

And it's looking like this government will see out its term having done NOTHING obvious to change that.

@TAKEALOT have you closed down your collection point on the Foreshore?
