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

Kevin offers his support
We received a boost this week when large carnivore behaviour specialist Kevin Richardson agreed to work more closely with the ILP, offering his skills and expert knowledge to assist us with upcoming projects. As most of you will know, Kevin has been associated with the ILP for many years, since he presented In Search of a Legend - Black Leopard. After hearing of our busy schedule and need for more assistance, Kevin was quick to offer his support and expertise to the ILP team. He brings a unique insight into the behaviour of carnivores, which will dovetail well with our operations in 2010.
We face some huge challenges next year and need more support both from experts and research volunteers. Let me know if you can help.

Having visited many other wildlife sites, I see that everyone has advertising. It's common sense. It pays the bills. It enables the sites to survive. It's the bottom line. If people want WE TV to survive, then a few 30-second ads is the least sacrifice we can give.
Are the ads appearing in a different form on WE TV? I'm sure they wouldn't have been cancelled completely because that's revenue for WE TV, which all of its fans and supporters want to see continued. I would hope!!
On general TV, and particularly "specials" of any kind, including wildlife specials, often there will be a long ad by a sponsor at the beginning of the show, no commercial interruptions, and again at the end of the program. I wouldn't see any problem with that either. In fact, I pay more attention to those sponsors because they are offering me something I really want to see without annoying me in the process! They deliver their little message and say "welcome to such and such special...", and at the end, they say "we enjoyed being the sponsor of such and such, thank you for joining us".
And meanwhile, the money is coming in to keep all these specials available to the viewers.
I think the WE social club members should get behind this!!
Do WE supporters forget that we are getting free access? It's an awful lot to expect WE TV to offer up something for nothing.
However, I found WE through other wildlife forums; I continue to attend other wildlife forums (as do many WE people I know) and always mention WE, especially to new people to any of the forums, so they might visit and become avid viewers. I visit any wildlife cam site I'm interested in and share in their chat rooms if there is discussion about wildlife. (I'm not interested in chat rooms where all people do is swap recipes, personal stories, etc. If the chat room is with a wildlife program, I feel the chat should be about the program and the animals we're viewing.)
In fact, since I have recommended the WE drives to people in the wildlife filming and other wildlife business areas, I am sure they read the WE chat beside the drive. Although I enjoy the chat sometimes, it only seldom addresses what's going on in the drive. I think that is somewhat detrimental to the promotion of WE TV. My business promotion "feeling" is that the WE chat next to the drive stream, could be moderated to include only discussion about wildlife - any wildlife. So that any professionals looking in, will see discussion and interaction relative to the drive. The personal chat could be left to .ning. That is just my humble opinion. (and I include myself as having had non-wildlife chat in chat rooms, but am working on that habit)
I think if someone invites me to be their Friend on WE ning and then mentions other wildlife forums of interest and invites me to visit those forums, this should not concern WE. Exploring wildlife forums, conservation sites, related chat rooms, etc. is in the best interest of everybody. We are all involved because we have a passion for wildlife, no matter where we find it. All these forums, including WE, provide educational material as well as a network for sharing information and photos, supporting one another, the forums, WE TV, conservation efforts, etc. All for one, and one for all - makes good business and public relations sense.
LOL...WElcome to WE.TV. It is wonderful to have you here. Thank you for all that you do for us!!!
