Join us in safeguarding Earth's biodiversity. As a result of relentless human impacts, a staggering number of endangered wildlife species face extinction.

We're committed to environmental guardianship by responding to crises threatening ecosystems and wildlife, holding relevant authorities accountable, supporting research, and implementing conservation projects. Earth’s biodiversity is rapidly being destroyed, with devastating consequences. Unless we act immediately and collectively, treasured animal icons like lions and elephants will be relegated

to history books. But so will countless lesser-known species like pangolins, frogs, and billions of marine creatures. Biodiversity – the wondrous array of plants, animals, and intricate ecosystems of our planet – is the Earth’s life support system. They ensure we have food to eat, a stable climate, clean air to breathe and water to drink, and medicines to heal us. If we destroy these ecosystems, we destroy our planet’s very lifeblood. ASI responds immediately to crises that threaten ecosystems and wildlife survival. We work to hold those in power accountable for actions harmful to the environment, calling them out when policies are weak and legislation is not enforced. We support scientific research, help implement wildlife conservation projects, and raise awareness around critical issues impacting ecosystems. We provide practical help whenever possible to restore habitats and provide safe havens. Our supporters help us raise public awareness, share facts, and communicate the urgency of the action needed to save millions of animal species and the environments on which they depend.

🇿🇦 Help Kulu the pangolin in his fight for survival 🐾

A tiny pangolin named Kuru is clinging to life in South Africa and he desperately needs your help.

Kulu is one of three pangolins that were rescued from ruthless poachers during an intensive sting operation. Their legs had been bound so tightly with rope that they could not move. The restraints had cut deep into their flesh, leaving horrific wounds and painful abscesses hidden beneath their scales.

One female had suffered so horrifically that the veterinary team had no choice but to end her pain. Another, a pregnant mother, was already under such extreme stress that keeping her in rehabilitation could have killed both her and her unborn baby. Rescuers released her early, hoping to give them their only chance at survival.

Kuru is now in the care of our trusted partner sanctuary, Umoya Khulula Wildlife Centre, at a secure, undisclosed location. But he is in critical condition. He is weak, traumatized and fighting for every breath. He needs your help urgently.

For Kuru to have any chance of recovery, he needs around-the-clock intensive care. He requires:
• constant monitoring and specialized milk formula
• wound treatment, medication and heating support
• daily guided walks to regain the strength he would need to survive in the wild

Your donation today will help provide the lifesaving treatment Kuru urgently needs over the coming months.

Every $1,800 (£1,350) raised covers a month of his rehabilitation costs.

Kuru will need at least six months of intensive treatment to help him heal from the unimaginable cruelty he has suffered. If he recovers, he will one day be released into a vast, protected habitat where he can finally live safely and freely.

🇿🇦 The time has come to help Panthera’s big cats 🐯

We promised Panthera Africa Big Cat Sanctuary we would help them rebuild when the time came, and that time is now.

Their animals need to return to the home they love and together, we can do this.

Earlier this year, you helped us rush critical support to our partner in Stanford, South Africa after a wildfire all but destroyed their sanctuary.

With your support, we will transform their burnt, damaged sanctuary into the home the animals have always known, loved and relied on for safety.

One of the most urgent needs right now is to rebuild the night houses, which are essential for the animals’ comfort, safety, care and management. These secure spaces were damaged or lost entirely in the fires.

Our partner is now working to rebuild eight fire-resilient night houses, designed to withstand extreme conditions and protect animals long-term.

We need to raise $4,500 (£3,500) per structure.

📰 NEWS: Southern Africa identified as main source of trafficked rhino horns 🦏

A review of Chinese court cases has revealed that most rhino horns trafficked into China originate from Southern Africa, with South Africa and Mozambique emerging as major source countries.

The research found that criminal networks often transport horns across land borders through Southeast Asian countries before they reach buyers in China. Earlier trafficking cases also showed shipments moving directly from Africa by air routes into major Chinese airports.

Wildlife advocates say the findings highlight how organised crime continues to threaten already vulnerable rhino populations. The report calls attention to the ongoing demand for rhino horn and the devastating impact it has on conservation efforts across Africa.

🇿🇦 Rebuilding Panthera Africa’s sanctuary starts now 🐅🦁

When wildfires devastated Panthera Africa Big Cat Sanctuary earlier this year, you helped us rush urgent support to our partner in Stanford, South Africa during an incredibly difficult time.

Now, we are keeping our promise to help rebuild what was lost.

The sanctuary’s night houses - vital spaces that provide safety, shelter and care for the animals - were among the structures badly damaged in the fires.

To help protect the animals into the future, our partner is rebuilding eight fire-resilient night houses that can better withstand extreme conditions and keep rescued big cats safe.

We need to raise $4,500 (£3,500) for each structure.

With your help, the animals can return to the home they love and rely on every day.

🇿🇦 The fires took so much - help us rebuild their sanctuary 🦁

It is time for the animals of Panthera Africa Big Cat Sanctuary to return to the home they love. And we need your help to do this.

Earlier this year, you helped us rush critical support to our partner in Stanford, South Africa after a wildfire all but destroyed their sanctuary. Some animals were left seriously injured and tragically, a tiger lost his life.

We promised Panthera that we would help rebuild when the time came, and that time is now.

With your support now, we will transform their burnt, damaged sanctuary into the home the animals have always known, loved and relied on for safety.

One of the most urgent needs right now is to rebuild the night houses, which are essential for the animals’ comfort, safety, care and management. These secure spaces were damaged or lost entirely in the fires.

🇲🇼 Be there for rescued wildlife like Nthambi 🐾

Nthambi has already endured more suffering than any wild animal should ever face …

When rescuers found the terrified pangolin in rural Malawi, one of her legs was so badly injured that the bone was exposed. She had been caught by poachers and was in agonising pain. To save her life, vets performed emergency surgery to amputate her leg before she was transferred to safety at our partner, the Lilongwe Wildlife Centre.

Sadly, Nthambi’s story is not unique.

Every year, the Lilongwe Wildlife Trust (LWT) rescues and rehabilitates animals targeted by the illegal wildlife trade — from pangolins and primates to antelope, wild cats and other vulnerable species. Many arrive injured, orphaned, traumatised or close to death.

At any given time, LWT can be caring for up to 200 rescued wild animals each day.

Your donation today can help provide:
💊 $20/£15 to supply antibiotics for sick and injured rescued animals.
🧡 $34/£25 to provide two weeks of care for an orphaned baby animal.
🍼 $68/£50 to provide milk for rescued orphans for an entire week.
🔥 $135/£100 to buy a heat lamp for vulnerable infant wildlife in rehabilitation.
🍎 $680/£500 to feed every rescued animal in our partner’s care for one week.

📰 NEWS: 40 years later, wildlife is thriving around Chernobyl 🐻🦊🦬

What was once the site of the world’s worst nuclear disaster is now home to flourishing wildlife. Forty years after the 1986 explosion, animals are reclaiming the abandoned exclusion zone around Chernobyl in northern Ukraine.

Populations of foxes, wolves, elk, lynx and wild boar have increased dramatically. Species like brown bears and European bison have also returned after years of absence.

Wildlife has largely returned to the area around Chernobyl due to the absence of people, showing how ecosystems can still respond and flourish when the usual rules no longer apply.

📰 NEWS: Scientists warn drugs in rivers could damage salmon development 💊🐟

Scientists studying Atlantic salmon have discovered fish exposed to co***ne pollution in waterways swam nearly twice as far as normal salmon. They tracked juvenile salmon in Sweden’s Lake Vättern for two months and found the drug-exposed fish travelled much greater distances than unaffected fish.

Experts say traces of co***ne and its byproducts are entering rivers and lakes through wastewater systems. The concern is that altered swimming behaviour could push salmon into unfamiliar waters and potentially affect their development.

According to scientists the findings are a warning about the hidden effects of pollution caused by human activity.

🇲🇼 Help animals like Nthambi survive and heal 🐾

Bone protruded from Nthambi’s leg when she was rescued from poachers in rural Malawi. This frightened pangolin’s was severely injured and in excruciating pain. She underwent emergency surgery to have her leg amputated before being transferred to our partner, the Lilongwe Wildlife Centre.

Shy, nocturnal pangolins are the most trafficked mammal in the world, prized for their scales – used in so-called ‘traditional medicine’ – and meat, considered a delicacy in parts of Asia.

Every year, the Lilongwe Wildlife Trust (LWT) cares for pangolins like Nthambi – animals stolen from the wild and the protection of their families, and sold on the brutal black market.

LWT can support up to 200 rescued wild animals a day, which includes pangolins, primates, wild cats, antelope and others that have been injured, orphaned or poached.

If you make a donation today, this is how it will help rescued wild animals:

$20 / £15 buys ten days’ worth of antibiotics for sick and injured orphans.
$34 / £25 covers two weeks of care for orphaned wildlife.
$68 / £50 pays for milk for the orphans in our partner’s care for a whole week.
$135 / £100 buys a heat lamp to keep infant animals warm during critical periods of rehabilitation.
$680 / £500 covers food costs for all animals for a week.
