Dear Sir; my team & my animals are stuck at airport circle. We have a flight waiting. Can you please facilitate safe passage into the airport for our convoy? @suhailshaheen1 We are an NGO who will come back to Afghanistan but right now I want to get everyone out safely. 🙏🏼

The economic principle of supply and demand was a key aspect in the decision-making process to raise the lion bone quota from 800 to 1500 in 2018, according to the newly published report by the Portfolio Committee of Environmental Affairs.

Trophy fees can be as little as $20. "All these animals play an important role in their local ecosystems and they should not be killed just because someone wants to have fun." #endtrophyhunting nationalgeographic.com/anima…

Again #Zapiro ‘s cartoons saying it all. #KillTheTrade #BloodLions #CannedLions #CannedHunting #SouthAfrica #LionsBones – at St Augustine, FL
SAD.
LION PARK, Johannesburg exploiting #lion cubs for tourists. Sadly many tourists & volunteers don’t realise that @LionParkSA have a history of force breeding lions, ripping them from their mothers, abusing young cubs and have links to #cannedhunting = SCAM @GoToSouthAfrica

Save Rang-tan. You won't see @IcelandFoodsIre’s Christmas advert on TV this year because it has been banned. But their message is clear & too important not to share. Will You help share the story? Have a Palm Oil Free Christmas this year. #PalmOilAlarmCall

Animals don’t belong on the “red carpet” @RobertIrwin no matter the good intentions. Please seek more responsible awareness.
A wonderful Steve Irwin Gala Australia! Night of fun & celebration to remember the greatest wildlife warrior & dad. It was the biggest gala yet, raising funds & awareness for @wildwarriors. I was so happy to donate one of my photo prints too. Thanks to everyone for your support!
