- We're excited to announce our latest partnership with @adoptedgorillas, who are supporting our Guardians of Dja project in Cameroon. #NFT #solana #NFTcommunity
- We're devastated to announce that Dolo has passed away following a short illness. He was kept on a 1m chain for years, so restrictive that it rubbed off his mane. After he was rescued in 2007, he spent every day happily snoozing in the sunshine. Thank you for changing his life.
- We’re absolutely delighted that from today wild animals can no longer be used in travelling circuses in England. We’ve been campaigning for a ban for more than 20 years and are thrilled that outdated acts like this will now be confined to the history books. #EnglandCircusBan

- We're so sad to announce the passing of rescued lioness Cora, just weeks after losing her sister Alpha.💔 We are proud to have brought Cora back to her ancestorial home and help give her the love and care she deserved in her final years. Our tribute 👇 ow.ly/Fwmt50TWnzV

00:00 - The UK is now home to three zoos with solitary elephants. Elephants in the wild, particularly females, do not live alone and every solitary elephant is a victim of the zoo industry. We need to phase out the keeping of elephants in UK zoos, now 👇 (1/7) bornfree.org.uk/blog/solitary-…
