#Cambodia’s #MoE, sub-national Administrations, #NGOs partners concluded 2nd phase #ZeroSnaring campaign with great success. Campaign’s message reached to 14 million people. All stakeholders have strong commitments to continue this important campaign to end snares crisis.
So excited to count another newborn this year as result of strict LE. Today, the team recorded a-10 days old calf with mother in Kampi. Since Jan, 5 newborns recorded which is twice higher and morality is triple lesser comparing to last year at the same time period. #wwfcambodia
Another glimmer of hope for critically endangered river dolphins in the Mekong - 4th calf born this year. Hugely important since only around 89 river dolphins left in the river

#ZeroSnaringCampaign reaches to Siem Reap today, where it’s not only renowned archeological site but it’s also rich in biodiversity. New species discovery report recently released is a testimony. Wildlife are treasure troves - we must protect them from hunting, snaring & trade.
One of beautiful new discovery species highlighted in the Greater Mekong region report, is the Cambodian blue crested agama. Also, the only new mammal species recorded in the report, Hayes’ thick-thumbed myotis discovered from Cambodia as well. Congrats!

Ministry of #Environment calls on all people to stop selling, buying, and consuming #wildmeat as these activities are destroying #Cambodia’s #wildlife and #biodiversity of global significance. Ending the snaring crisis requires our concerted commitment and participation.
This is the most incredible landscape. Fortunately, it locates in Cambodia’s Mekong river and we should be proud of having a place and species where jaw-dropping splendors are available in the country. Let’s protect it at all cost for our future generations to come. Credit@ #MoE
