We’ve been gifted a planet that’s teeming with biodiverse life.
Every species plays its part with an extraordinary role – from forest elephants acting as crucial seed dispersers, to vital pollinators, to fungi that connect vast networks of trees, to thriving coral reefs that provide crucial storm protection along coastlines. These roles are vital to habitats. Vital to the health of our planet. Vital to all our futures.
But these species are facing unprecedented threats. The stakes are high and the time to act is running out.
That’s why it’s our role to help save these extraordinary species. Will you help?
Fauna & Flora works with local partners around the world to save nature together. Bringing local and global knowledge together to protect the extraordinary species that we all depend on. It’s vital we come together and act now, before the wonders of our natural world are lost forever.

Your support could work wonders
Fauna & Flora works with local partners in well over 40 countries to protect our planet’s extraordinary species. Working with communities whose generations of traditional knowledge and understanding guide every one of our unique projects across the world. Projects that are vital not just for the survival of the world’s threatened species and their habitats, but for our survival too.
If you view the world with wonder, if you see the extraordinary in everything, if you feel we need to act now to save our planet – then we need you.
Here are some of the incredible species you will be helping to protect:
The tiny frog bouncing back from extinction
At just 25mm in length, the cave squeaker frog – small enough to fit on your fingernail – was supposed to be extinct. But five years ago, they were re-discovered tucked away in the caves and sinkholes of a minuscule 10km² area, which makes up their entire global range.
But now, their home – this isolated mountain stronghold – is changing. Destruction from mining and human encroachment is destroying the habitat they need to survive.
With your support, Fauna & Flora is putting monitoring cameras in their habitat, as well as patrolling the outskirts to keep threats at bay and keep track of these tiny survivors to ensure they can thrive in peace.

Tough times for turtles
In Nicaragua, you can join our work alongside local communities to protect key nesting sites for the critically endangered hawksbill and East Pacific leatherback turtles.
On some beaches, 100% of turtle eggs were previously being poached, which nearly drove local populations to extinction.
To date we’ve released over 200,000 hatchlings safely into the sea – with your help, we can release even more.

Protecting pangolins
Pangolins are the most trafficked mammal on the planet, with all eight of the world’s pangolin species threatened with extinction.
These adorable scaly mammals are under severe threat from illegal wildlife trade, which is driven by demand for its meat and scales.
But, with your support, we are getting protection out into the field to keep species like pangolins safe. You could help provide crucial equipment to the rangers protecting them, helping to keep these incredible creatures where they belong: in their forest habitat and out of the hands of poachers.

Plant power
Plants are not just part of the scenery, they are the lifeblood of our planet.
But an alarming 40% of the world’s plants are thought to be threatened with extinction.
With your support, we are helping plants around the world. Working with local communities, we are helping to protect and reconnect wildlife-rich and carbon-rich forests, save threatened plants and safeguard crucial corners of this green planet.
From mighty mangrove forests, to majestic magnolias, to tremendous wild tulips – you could help us protect them all.
