The stakes are high!
- Political review of grants
- Vaccines attacked while measles rages
- Public health & science dismantled
- Care access cut
Time to be heard.

An amazing project that @OfficialZSL has been championing for >30yrs. People like @jstgerlach, Dave Clarke & Paul Pearce-Kelly are true conservation heroes bringing back species from the edge, reintroducing them into the wild & preserving intact ecosystems for future generations. Te salutamus!
