Stop Wildlife Crime

Wildlife crime is now the most urgent threat to three of the world's most best-loved species - elephants, rhinos and tigers.
You can help by supporting rangers who work tirelessly to protect endangered species like tigers, elephants and rhinos, which are targeted by poachers for the illegal wildlife trade. Backing rangers ensures they are properly equipped, trained and compensated. Rangers serve as forest guards, eco guards and field enforcement officers. However they often earn very little and they may go without receiving their salary or seeing their family for some months. Rangers are often at the crossfire of wildlife crime and often have to face dangerous gangs of armed poachers. Every four days, a wildlife ranger is killed in the line of duty. Please help these rangers serving on the front line to protect these beautiful animals.
Please back a ranger, sign the pledge and spread the word so that you and everyone else can make informed decisions before buying animal or plant products. Or simply send a card to show them how much you appreciate what they do!
