Tipping’s Tiny Zoo is a thread of Animal Thanet 2021, which examines our relationship to the natural world via plastic animals placed in & around Ramsgate

We no longer have ignorance as an excuse for slaughtering wildlife to the point of no return ... & yet we can’t contain our bloodlust to destroy the natural world #extinction #protectwildlife #BanTrophyHunting

[Jack Ashby @JackDAshby]

OTD in 1909 the Tasmanian government repealed their #thylacine bounty, as there were so few left alive. Nearly 2,200 #thylacines had been killed under the government bounty scheme since it began in 1888. They never recovered. #Tasmania #OTD #extinction

If only we'd had some way of knowing that they were a corrupt, self-serving bunch of knobs.

Happy #worldtapirday! Let’s celebrate these extraordinary animals, such characters and a delight to sculpt. But those toes! Just look at those toes! All four species of tapir are under threat because of habitat destruction (Bolsonaro is not helping at all). #tapir #wildlife

... & when they are all gone? #Wolves #idaho #WildlifeServices #biodiversity #naturalworld #bloodlust

[Christopher Tipping @AnimalThanet]

A tragedy. Whilst some pay the ultimate price to protect wildlife, others pay to casually kill it for sport & a trophy to take home. Humanity, always at a crossroad & never learns from its mistakes #protectallwildlife #BanTrophyHunting #thisisnotourplanettodestroy #RIP

[Levison Wood @Levisonwood]

Terribly sad news. Rory Young, CEO of @ChengetaWild has been tragically killed in Burkina Faso by terrorists whilst he was on an anti-poaching deployment along with 2 Spanish Journalists. He was an outstanding conservationist and a wonderful man who I will miss dearly

[Christopher Tipping @AnimalThanet]

A final humiliation. Barbaric. Anachronistic. Brutal. Poor Elephant. #BanTrophyHunting #protectallwildlife #bansporthunting #thisisnotourplanettodestroy

[Xpose Trophy Hunting @XposeTrophyHunt]

The final mark of ‘ownership’ of the elephant a ‘hunter’ kills. Cutting off his tail.

Elephants are ENDANGERED now. How is this acceptable?

🙏🏼Retweet IF YOU WANT TROPHY HUNTING BANNED!

@NamPresidency @NamibiaWildlife Isn’t it always greed & opportunism? How do you define a problem elephant? Why is it a problem? #BanTrophyHunting #protectallwildlife #protectelephants #Namibia

@ZimbabweElepha1 @edmnangagwa That is appalling & irresponsible. Makes me sick to my stomach - please reconsider #BanTrophyHunting #protectallwildlife #elephants #sentientcreatures #Zimbabwe

[Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting @CBTHunting]

500 elephants are to be killed by trophy hunters in Zimbabwe this year.

Without a shred of self-awareness, Robert Jenrick stood up in Parliament today and slammed Liverpool city council for "the awarding of dubious contracts" and "a failure of proper and due process."

The brass neck.

Very near to April 1st - but ... a beaver on the beach. Poor thing. Really hope it can be brought back to health and rehabilitated. Had it escaped? #tippingstinyzoo #animalthanet2021 #gobeavers
