Is this not one of the most adorable hare's you've seen?! 💚 Emmy, Y2 Jarrow Cross Primary created her drawing for our UK Wildlife project in @Janeleemcc Northumbrian Wildlife workshops in March. She has brilliantly captured the shy, timid and cautious nature of hares.

This week @RiverdaleCS is participating in our New York Wildlife workshops with @Janeleemcc We can't wait to see Grade 4 artists drawings! Here's a reminder of our Wild Neighbors campaign video screened on @Nasdaq Tower during Climate Week NYC 2025 🗽🍎

#RefuseToRide Chanchal spent her life carrying the weight of human entertainment, even as her own body was breaking down. After years of being used for rides, enduring immense strain and suffering, her life ended in the very system that failed her. The plight of riding elephants in India is still overlooked, and the violation continues. Riding elephants is not OK. Animal abuse is not OK. Stand with us to end this cycle of exploitation. Sign our petition, ‘Refuse To Ride’, and pledge to say no to elephant rides. Your support can make a difference. Sign the petition here: action.wildlifesos.org/page/74446/act…

@WildlifeSOS We're so sad to hear about your loss. Ella knew love and care thanks to you. Rest in peace beautiful soul 💔❤️

In Loving Memory of Ella. Maybe it was fate that on the very same day Ella arrived at the Elephant Rescue Centre (ERC) in Haryana, Erika did too, rescued from a different part of the state, carrying a story just as heavy. From that moment on, their journeys became intertwined. Ella, the oldest, never needed to prove her place. There was a steadiness in her, a patience that shaped those around her. She became someone the others looked to, not because she demanded it, but because of the calm she carried. Today it feels different. Erika walks out in the morning without Ella to look back at, without that familiar presence following close behind. Over the past year, as Ella’s body began to frail, the others seemed to understand. They gave her space when she needed it, but never drifted too far. There was always an awareness around her, an unspoken support. What Ella leaves behind is not just a memory of who she was, but a feeling that stays. In the spaces she once stood, in the stillness that follows, in the lives she touched. With all our love, Ella, all of us will remember you.
