As 2025 comes to an end, we highlight what a difference you made! Thanks to you, 2025 has been an exceptional year for Mission Wildlife and the animals you helped support. Through the generosity of all our wonderful supporters and volunteers, more than $150,000 was provided to organizations working to save wildlife. Here are a few actions you made possible:
earth - Funds from a grant facilitated by Mission Wildlife, along with your contributions, went to purchasing camera traps for monitoring wildlife in Borneo. This technology is invaluable for detecting cryptic and nocturnal species that would otherwise remain hidden from view. .earth strategically deploys these camera traps to document wildlife recolonization and usage patterns in the corridors being created by Hutan’s two reforestation teams, which your support also helps fund. Understanding which species use these corridors, when they begin using them (how many years after tree planting), and why, is critical to evaluating the effectiveness of conservation interventions and improving landscape management strategies.
(STE) – A new tracking initiative seeks to broaden local successes by providing a bigger picture of elephant needs and threats using data from elephant collars deployed across the continent. This work expands on STE’s critical science-based input to government decision making about land use in Northern Kenya, obtained from thousands of GPS data points from collared elephants to identify and protect important movement corridors. It’s crucial work as human population growth and climate change are rapidly changing the face of Africa.
Local Rescues- We love being able to help local organizations caring for animals in need. Your 2025 donations also supported the , , and . We will continue to support vital San Diego organizations stepping up for our local wildlife and unwanted pets.
We are so appreciative of your trust and generosity. We look forward to continuing our journey together, helping individuals, entire species, and the places they live, to thrive.
