You can adopt the Ileach dolphins - pod of seven bottlenose dolphins
living off the coast of Scotland in the Hebrides. They are most often
seen around the Island of Islay, which is how they got their name - 'Ileach'
means 'of Islay'. Bottlenose dolphins are extremely intelligent mammals
- inquisitive, playful and sociable. They were once a common sight, but
threats like over fishing and pollution mean that dolphins have almost
disappeared from our coastline.
Kiruba is a female Asian elephant who lives in Corbett National Park,
in the Terai Arc lowlands of India. Kiruba is the dominant female in
an extended family of 24 elephants. As the matriarch of the group she
is relied upon to find food, water and safe habitat.
Kinyanjui is lucky. He has escaped the poachers who have slaughtered
95 per cent of rhino populations in recent decades. He is now one of
less than 500 black rhinos left alive in Kenya. However, since we began
supporting the Kenya Wildlife Service project in 1992, the population
has risen. But numbers are still desperately low - which is why we need
your help
Etin is a four-year-old orang utan who lives with his mother, Jenny,
and family on the floodplain of the Kinabatangan river in Malaysia. The
forests around them are threatened by logging and forest fires. Three
quarters of the region's frontier forest has been cleared, so huge areas
of prime orang utan habitat are in danger.
