TWO THOUSAND MILES from the small population of wild Mexican gray wolves, Turner Burns of Kids for Wolves is working hard to protect the lobo - the world's most endangered gray wolf - and the federal law that saved them from extinction.

Earlier this week Turner met with the staff of U.S. Senator Bob Casey to talk about Mexican wolves and the importance of protecting the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

Under the guise of "modernizing" the ESA, wildlife opponents in Congress have introduced dozens of proposals to weaken this vital federal law to benefit powerful corporate interests.

Turner might not be old enough to vote, but he recognizes that Congress' efforts to "modernize" the ESA is just another "alternative fact!" So, Turner called on Senator Casey for his help. He explained how the ESA has given thousands of at-risk species a second chance and has worked successfully to prevent the extinction of 99% of the species placed under its protection. Turner then presented the Senator with a photo and paw print of Mexican gray wolf M1133 (Rhett) as an example of the ESA's success and importance.

Enormous thanks to Turner - you are amazing - an inspiration! And big thanks to U.S. Senator Bob Casey for pledging to support the ESA!

Please visit Turner's Facebook page - Kids for Wolves -to learn how your kiddo can join the effort to protect the ESA via his post card campaign.

Founded by Petronel Nieuwoudt in 2001, Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary is the largest orphan rhino orphanage and sanctuary in the world.

Rescue, Rehabilitate, Release

Our vision is to secure free-ranging African Rhinoceros in protected sanctuaries across Africa, to ensure the survival of the species for future generations.

Baby rhinos that are orphaned in the wild rarely survive. The mission of Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary is to rescue every rhino that is orphaned, to heal them and to provide a totally secure environment where they can grow, roam free, and breed to ensure that there will always be rhinos in Africa.

Making A Difference

The Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary NPC was founded by Petronel Nieuwoudt (PN) 15 years ago in the Limpopo province, with the goal of providing care and rehabilitation to a wide range of animals. Due to the limited level of poaching at the time, only a few rhinos were treated at the centre. In 2011 the centre was moved to Barberton, Mpumalanga, and was situated on a leased property as a temporary measure until a more suitable property was available for purchase. Subsequent to moving to its new property, there was a drastic increase in the number of rhino poaching incidents in the surrounding areas, and an ensuing need to care and rehabilitate for the injured and/or orphaned rhinos, whose mothers were killed during such incidents, became apparent.

Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary NPC is developing the existing rehabilitation centre and additional land into a secure stronghold which will eventually accommodate 100 black and white rhinos in a viable secure breeding population. Ultimately, it is the goal of the sanctuary to aid in the process of re-maximizing the rhino population with the intention of preserving the species for future generations.

Despite intense counter poaching efforts, rhinos continue to be poached at unprecedented levels throughout South Africa. Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary NPC is developing a concise strategy to ensure the safety and security of the rhinos under the centres care, and is committed to maintaining the highest level of protection. Such security measures will include (but are not limited to) 24/7 monitoring of individual animal groups, highly trained armed game scouts, mobile response units, communications network, crime intelligence, intense surveillance and live video monitoring, trained counter poaching dogs and their respective handlers, watchtowers, electrified fencing, and aerial support.

Conservation is a major issue around the world with the impacts that humans have on natural ecosystems through activities from mining, building new cities and global warming. There are many conservation groups and efforts that lobby for the conservation of particular species (for example, the polar bear) or groups of animals (for example, tigers), while others are aimed at entire habitats, such as the Amazon rainforest. Conservation efforts can also aim to protect natural resources. Some conservation is done by setting aside national parks and wildlife preserves, while other conservation works targets specific threats to particular species. Read about various conservation efforts and issues below.
