Behind Every Species Saved, There’s A Wildlife Vet
Make DOUBLE the difference by donating to Wildlife Vets International during the first ever
challenge
22 - 29 April
Donate Now
Behind every species saved, there’s a wildlife vet.
Caring for the health of wild animals is key to their welfare and survival. Disease, illness and injury can make the difference between extinction and recovery — but too often, conservation efforts lack access to vital veterinary support and skills.
What difference can you make by donating today?
- Help train 150+ vets and biologists to equip them with vital skills and knowledge to give them the best chance of keeping vulnerable wild animals healthy in some of the world’s most biodiverse places.
- Help support frontline conservationists to save threatened species, by, for example, providing expertise that can significantly improve the survival rate of rare giant Asian tortoise hatchlings.
- Help pioneer the development of rapid tests for canine distemper virus that work for any species – so that we can identify and respond quickly to new outbreaks in wild carnivores.
Why donate through Earth Raise 2026?
For one week only, we have £10,000 to DOUBLE YOUR online DONATIONS.
When? From midday 22nd to midday 29th April
Every £1 donated will be doubled and have twice the impact.
Reaching our £10,000 target will enable us to continue to support the health of all the species that share our planet.
Investing in WVI today will:
- Provide targeted veterinary expertise to conservation programmes, including hands-on clinical support, where it’s needed most;
- Equip wildlife professionals with practical skills in areas like safe capture, treatment and reintroduction of animals;
- Strengthen disease monitoring and risk assessment, helping conservationists respond effectively to emerging threats and protect the health of all who share the planet;
- Support the development of tools, research and partnerships that improve wildlife health and long-term conservation outcomes.
Why is this so important?
Conservation often focuses on stopping poaching, the illegal wildlife trade, habitat destruction and climate change.
But without addressing animal health, these efforts cannot succeed. When ecosystems are disrupted, disease risks increase - threatening wildlife, livelihoods and human health.
Yet access to wildlife veterinary training and expertise remains limited, especially in the regions where biodiversity is greatest.
By giving today, you can help change that.
You can ensure conservationists have the knowledge, tools and support they need to protect wildlife health - because the future of species, ecosystems and people are all connected.
