There will be a special AM drive to say farewell to Wonky. Weather permitting, Pieter and Rory plan on being at Wonky's final resting place as the Sun comes up for a short visit to reflect on Wonky's life and the loss of our old friend... 5:00am CAT…
Wild about Africa. I'm a stay at home grandmother raising a grandchild who is now 14! Time sure does pass fast. I love watching WildEarth and dream of the day I am there in person.

Hello, and thanks! I am going to Southeastern Community College for an Applied Assoc. in Science, major focus is Environmental Science and a minor in Invasive Species Management...
My parents were quite old when I was born so I lived with my sister (who was 23 years older than I was) much of the time. Her hubby was in the Air Force and stationed at the Pentagon. Moved some with them and then married a man who was in the Air Force also and he was stationed in Germany. I was only 16 when I got married and one dopey kid. I could have seen so much in the 2 years I was there but didn't have sense enough to think about that. My ex flew and so he got to see everything from Egypt to England. He flew constantly and I was alone much of the time. Guess we all have things we would have, should have, could have done differently. LOL
Biking in S.Africa sounds wonderful to me Karen. So glad to become friends with you. Yes it does seem like you & I have bounced around and lived in many places. You know, I wouldn't have it any other way. This way we have a taste of what it is like to live in so many places. It adds flavor to ones life. I wish I had it all to do over again don't you?
I am in Morganton, west of NC smile... Welcome to wildearth... wow I just read about your dream to go to South Africa and ride motorcycle soooo cool.. smile..
We have finally managed to get our live broadcast from Moholoholo wildlife rehabilitation centre working. Well there are a few problems with tree branches moving in front of the antenna which means the screen freezes every now and then but we can't chop out trees just for this broadcast. Having said that we have a plan to improve it and in the meantime we are getting some great day and night video of vultures, hyena and jackal to name just three species. Enjoy.
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.
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.
