About Me:


I am a college student majoring in Biology (focusing on mammalian ethology/conservation biology) and Art. Before I moved to Massachusetts a year ago, I volunteered for nearly five years at the Fresno Chaffee Zoo in California with our two wonderful Asian elephants, Shaunzi and Kara. These girls have taught me how intelligent, complex, social, caring, and overall amazing beings elephants are. I also have a great love for Africa and her wildlife and I love to travel. I am planning to travel eastern and southern Africa (Tanzania, Kenya, South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia) as well as parts of Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Borneo) studying animal behavior (focusing on elephants) and taking part in their conservation.

I was in 1st grade when The Lion King came out and ever since it has been my greatest inspiration for my love of Africa and her wildlife. Enjoy!! ^-^

Thank you, Marie, for your comment about my page background. WE love our ellies, don't WE? These were various pics I had captured of Wonky. I still tear up when I think of him.

ILP in the USA




Along came Deb Weston.
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.

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.

Thanks in advance
