I am very upset by this. Simon, you made WE more accessible and friendlier to all of North America. It was like having a bit of home talking to us and showing us the wonders of SA and WE. Your chats were at a time that was friendlier to us on this side of the pond. WE gained valuable information from your perspective that we wouldn't have gotten otherwise. Your cute smile and the outlook brought us closer to the WE family than ever before. Your photography is awesome and it was a pleasure to see the delight with which you viewed everything. WE will surely miss you and hope your return is swift. It is not easy to lose a member of the family as you have become for WE.
God speed and God bless.
BTW Tater says bye she will miss you too.

Simon, I wish you weren't leaving. You brought so much warmth to WE, your smile and personality is engaging. Your presence will be missed greatly! Always remember when this door closes, a better one will open for you!
Your future looks bright and you will be a star! WE was just a stepping stone to greatness....
Like I said, if you are ever in the northeast (tristate area) my home is always open to you.....
Warmest regards...Patty

Simon, sorry to hear you will be leaving soon. I live in Kansas and know how wonderful your time in Africa must have been. The beauty of the animals and skies are breath taking just watching from wildearth tv. Please add me as a friend...you will totally be missed by many! Hopefully you will be in the chat room to chat with all of us from time to time.

ILP in the USA
We've been hoping to find someone to help with our social networking in the USA for a while, then along came Deb Weston.
Deb has been a supporter of the ILP for quite a while and came over to meet the team in Africa a few weeks ago. I'm pleased to announce that Deb has graciously offered to assist with social networking and fund raising for the ILP in the USA. So if you are in the USA, get in touch with Deb and let her know you are out there and care for the plight of wild leopards.

So if you are in the USA, get in touch with Deb and let her know you are out there and care for the plight of wild leopards.
As most of you know, Kirsty Lynas has been working hard on social networking for the ILP in the UK ever since she finished her five month spell as a volunteer with us earlier this year.
Kirsty is continuing to work for us from the UK and co-ordinating with Deb who will cover the USA. Kirsty is also now managing the ILP membership scheme. All of those who have joined so far will be able to receive insider knowledge from Kirsty on a regular basis.On that front, we need more folks to join the ILP membership scheme and soon, if we are to have any chance of saving the lives of Leopards. Sound dramatic? Well, a leopard was illegally shot this week and we were unable to prevent it.
That's one less leopard in the rapidly diminishing gene pool. If we all don't act soon there will be no leopards left in wild area's. That's no idle statement, our model shows a huge decline in the wild population. The genetic tipping point will come very soon, after which there will be no recovery. Please join the ILP membership scheme, we need your help.

ILP Membership Scheme
I want to walk into the office of the CEO of Mpumalanga Parks Board next week, armed with your support and confirm our help to prevent senseless killings of wild unfenced Leopards throughout the province.
Next year will be our ten year anniversary and the biggest yet for the ILP. Provincial authorities have no funds or people to tackle the issues at hand and have asked for our help. We must act now to conserve the dwindling leopard population. Time is slipping away, but we need funds to tackle the problems and mobilise a team. That is why we have put together a membership scheme. Please make a small donation (your choice, but please don't hold back), and become a member of the ILP. You'll receive regular updates from the front line of wildlife conservation and a voucher worth $380 which you can redeem against a 2010 Wildlife Safari with On Track Safaris.
Donations can be made by credit card via our UK Representatives Research Cam www.researchcam.com. All funds raised go to the ILP.
