I grew up hearing stories of these magnificent animals in the wild - their sheer awesome size and grandeur demanding universal respect. The stories do them no justice.

I have been one of the lucky few to experience these, and many other animals, in the wild. Every encounter leaving a lasting impact on me and will be treasured for the rest of my life. However, in my short lifetime the number of these remarkable creatures in the wild has drastically decreased. This dwindling population is as a result of immoral human activities such as poaching. Therefore, it is our duty to try and preserve these creatures for future generations - this is my way of making a difference.

By donating you will be providing resources to be used in the maintenance of these gentle giants and protect them for future generations to enjoy.

I have been privileged to see these magnificent animals in the wild, and it is an experience which I will treasure for the rest of my life. However, I may be one of the last people to be able to say this unless we do something to protect them. This is my way of doing that - every donation will go towards this great cause in an effort to protect the future of these magnificent creatures.
