Animal Health
The missing piece of the puzzle
This Christmas, make DOUBLE the difference by donating to our Big Give Christmas Challenge.
2-9 December
Donate Now
One Health. One Planet. One Future.
Healthy wildlife is central to healthy ecosystems, which are more resilient to climate change.
But the urgent need to protect the health of wildlife is still too often the forgotten piece of the conservation puzzle.
What difference can you make by donating today?
- Give 140 vets and biologists desperately needed skills and knowledge so they have the best chance of safeguarding the health of vulnerable animal populations.
- Get proper care for 20 cold-stunned sea turtles who have washed up on UK shores so that they can have a second chance at life.
- Pioneer the development of rapid tests for Canine Distemper Virus so that we can identify and respond quickly to any outbreaks in wild carnivores, regardless of species.
Why donate through the Big Give Christmas Challenge?
For one week only, we have £17,000* to DOUBLE your online DONATIONS.
When? From midday, 2nd to midday, 9th December.
Every £1 donated will be doubled and have twice the impact.
*Thank you to the Reed Foundation, Hertfordshire Zoo, the Big Cat Sanctuary, and private individuals.
Don't let animal health be the missing piece of the conservation puzzle.
Reaching our £34,000 target will enable us to continue to support the health of all the species that share our planet.
Investing in WVI today will:
- Strengthen co-existence of people and jaguars in Belize.
- Make sure that health is an integral part of conservation programs for endangered birds in India.
- How people working with wild carnivores understand quickly if they are suffering from disease.
- Empower marine rescuers and vets in the UK to give cold-stunned turtles the right specialist care and the best chance of recovery.
Why is this so important?
Conservation often focuses on stopping poaching, the illegal wildlife trade, habitat destruction, and climate change.
Often leaving out a vital piece of the puzzle: the health of the animals concerned, how to minimize illness and injury, the spread of infectious disease, human-wildlife conflict.
All these are intricately linked to extinction, biodiversity loss, and climate change.
By giving today, you can provide the missing puzzle piece to those working on the conservation front line.
We each have a role to play in safeguarding the health of every species on the planet. Good health is a unifying force that underlines the inter-connectedness of all living things.
Don't let animal health be the missing piece of the conservation puzzle.
