3rd March is World Wildlife Day and we are
celebrating by raising awareness of the fragility of our planet. Being a long
time supporter of conservation we would like to encourage everyone to take
steps in protecting our environment.
The theme of this
years World Wildlife Day is “the future of elephants is in our hands.”
Africa’s population is one of the fastest growing and one of the
biggest threats to elephants is the loss of habitat due to development. With so
much focus on protecting the rhino many people are unaware that elephants are
one of the most critically poached and trafficked species in the world with not
only their tusks being in demand but their skin and meat also being traded. Our
collective efforts could mean the difference between the survival of the
species or their extinction.
What you can do:
1. Take to social
media and let your voice be heard
3. Don’t support the
ivory trade
To help you celebrate these magnificent animals we are offering a
10% discount on all elephant products for the month of March on our website or
at the V&A Watershed shop F058, Waterfront.
