Dear John,
Are you their only hope? Rescued animals, in desperate need, urgently need YOU now. You can celebrate the true spirit of Christmas, with a gift today.
GIVE A GIFT TO RESCUED ANIMALS ([link removed])
Orphaned, exploited, abused.
Each animal has suffered too much. Please help:
Rea and Girma the lions
Terrified cubs when snatched from the wild – no doubt to be sold as a pets, their mother likely killed.
📷 Rea (L/) and Girma cling together just before their rescue
Barbie the baby gorilla
Shot in the head by poachers – we suspect this traumatised baby saw her entire family killed for meat.
📷 You can clearly see the head wound starting to heal
Fasika the cheetah cub
Orphaned, hungry and afraid, tied on a rope with her brother, innocent victims of the pet trade.
📷 Fasika with her brother Ramadan, when they were found
As someone who loves animals, you could help them overcome trauma.

Tragically, it’s too late for Po the pangolin
Caught from the wild by poachers, a severe snare injury left her very weak. Our colleagues at Lilongwe Wildlife Trust fought to save her but, despite their best efforts, she deteriorated and died. A devastating loss.
But, alongside heartbreak is always hope!
Your Christmas gift today could…
