Description
These wobbly wombats may look slow and ambling, but you may be surprised to know that, if threatened, they can run at speeds of up to 40km (25 miles) per hour! But it’s our guess that wombats like it better this way, meandering through the world, on land and in water, foraging for roots, grass and bark to nibble on. Here in this garden, surrounded by greenery and without a predator in sight, they’ve got everything they need and can relax.

Description
Between habitat destruction and disturbance from humans, especially in the form of cars driving at high speeds, koalas have had an extremely hard time for years. Add to that the drought and bushfire season of 2019/2020, during which up to 10,000 koalas died, and the situation for these marsupials is now more urgent than ever. Thankfully, this little koala has found a respite. At the top of his ladder, where humans and fires can’t reach him, he closes his eyes and rests.

Description
Ngilai's Story
On the 8th of March Angela and Robert received reports from KWS about the plight of a little elephant who was discovered fallen down a well within Molore Lorach, Ngilai area. The community first found him there on the 6th of March when approaching the well to water their livestock. They left and returned the following day thinking that he might have managed to escape and be reunited with his natal herd, but too fearful to attempt to extract him. On their return on the 7th of March the stranded, exhausted and now injured calf remained stricken in the well. His desperate ongoing attempts to free himself left him with busies and a rubbed raw back from struggling against the jagged well sides.

> You can also adopt Ngilai here

This is a sculpture that represents more than orphaned calves. This is a yearlong celebration of hope and strength for the generation who will grow up into the healthy and supported elephants of tomorrow thanks to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. The future of their species in the wild relies on this young generation being strong. Strength we can all help to provide. Because by December next year, when this sculpture leaves London, they’ll have only 19 years left to defy the odds with another generation to follow. This is a sculpture for positive change. One we won’t let become a memorial.

The elephants of tomorrow...

Edition Number

Description
Everyone loves to play Jenga, carefully removing the bricks, with butterflies in their stomachs, hoping they’ve balanced it right so the tower doesn’t come crashing down. Jenga is a Swahili word meaning ‘to build’. It’s important to build the tower with complete cohesion, each brick affecting the stability of the others. Inspired by the events of Covid-19, this sculpture looks at how we can use the lessons we have learned and apply them to create a better, kinder world. As we look to build up again, we must think of all the pieces, making sure they are all in harmony: people, business and nature. If we don’t balance all the pieces, the entire stack will fall. We must build a better world so all the animals of the world, like the hippo, can stand strong at the top of the tower.

Description
Koalas are marsupials, which mainly means their young are born before they are ready to live in the outside world. So when this koala joey was born, still an embryo, she would have instinctively headed for her mama’s pouch. There she would have stayed for six months, suckling constantly. When she was strong enough to survive outside the pouch and start eating eucalyptus leaves, she would have left her mama’s pouch and clambered onto her back, which is how we find this mother and daughter, making their way through their eucalyptus forest.

Description
To commemorate the deeds of the $7 million earning, seven-time Group 1 winner Buffering, Brisbane Racing Club commissioned Gillie and Marc to create a life-size statue of the legendary race horse. The statue stands at the front of the new infield entrance to Eagle Farm.

Heathcote said he believed Buffering’s never-say-die attitude was the reason the public took him to heart. “Australians love an underdog and he had all the qualities of a great fighter. He would get knocked down but he would get back up again,” he said. “And he did it in an era of sprinting greats.”

BRC Chairman Neville Bell said in the 152 years of Eagle Farm this was the first time a full-size statue had been unveiled. “From day one of this club it was always the plan to have a significant statue at Eagle Farm and we couldn’t think of a better opportunity than with Buffering,” he said. “He was a great ambassador for racing in Queensland and for the Brisbane Racing Club.”

The game of hide and seek conjures feelings from our childhood of safety, love and joy. Gillie and Marc believe that all people and all creatures have the right to live in a world where safety and love are the rule, not the exception. Unfortunately, safety is often seen as a privilege rather than a right for many species of animals. Endangered species have had to hide from humankind for far too long. With 'Come out, come out wherever you are', the artists call on the world to welcome these species out from hiding and into a place of safety and love.

Barsilinga's Story
Gunshots were heard during the evening of 13th April 2012 by the community of the Lpus-La-Mpasion area near Wamba in the Samburu tribal area of Northern Kenya. The next morning a severely wounded female Elephant, with a calf at foot, was spotted in the area. Bullet wounds in the chest area and front legs had rendered her barely able to even move, yet another victim of the ivory trade and a grizzly reminder of the suffering attached to each piece of ivory that is bought or sold. The mother's end was a painful one, full of suffering, and her calf would have been a victim too had he not been one of the lucky few rescued.

This is a sculpture that represents more than orphaned calves. This is a yearlong celebration of hope and strength for the generation who will grow up into the healthy and supported elephants of tomorrow thanks to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. The future of their species in the wild relies on this young generation being strong. Strength we can all help to provide. Because by December next year, when this sculpture leaves London, they’ll have only 19 years left to defy the odds with another generation to follow. This is a sculpture for positive change. One we won’t let become a memorial.

Barsilinga is part of Gillie and Marc's exhibition - The Orphans.

Description
Lewis, the koala that was heroically saved by Toni Doherty and taken to an animal hospital during the Australian bushfires, passed away on November 26, 2019. The Port Macquarie Koala Hospital was caring for Lewis. They made the decision to euthanize him after caring for and inspecting his severe burns from the fires. “(Our) number one goal is animal welfare, so it was on those grounds that this decision was made,” the hospital said, according to CNN. They estimated that Lewis was 14 years old.

Gillie and Marc want to make sure that Lewis is memorialized. Lewis will be shown to the world in bronze, wrapped in bandages and sitting on top of a eucalyptus stump.

The artists hope the statutes bring more awareness to the fires, climate change, and koalas. Artist Marc said of the fires in an emailed statement, “This is a terrifying example of the effects of climate change and how destructive it can be. The fires are not just a problem for Australia, they are a global problem.” Marc and Gillie are known for their public sculptures that help spread love, equality and conservation.

Koalas have been severely affected by the fires. Some estimates say their habitats in Australia have been 80% destroyed. Gillie said in an emailed press release of the koala, “It is so upsetting that an animal so important to the Australian identity is threatened with extinction. We want the whole world to come together to help us make sure this adorable creature will always have a home to come back to.”

Mukkoka's Story
On 20th September 2018, while on a routine fixed-wing patrol with DSWT pilot Neville Sheldrick, the Tiva De-Snaring Team leader, Nterto Kapina, spotted the tracks of what appeared to be a lone elephant calf wandering down the Tiva River.

This is a sculpture that represents more than orphaned calves. This is a yearlong celebration of hope and strength for the generation who will grow up into the healthy and supported elephants of tomorrow thanks to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. The future of their species in the wild relies on this young generation being strong. Strength we can all help to provide. Because by December next year, when this sculpture leaves London, they’ll have only 19 years left to defy the odds with another generation to follow. This is a sculpture for positive change. One we won’t let become a memorial.

Description
Unlike anything else in the world, music brings people together. Music is an emotive expression that transcends borders and is shared by every single creature on earth. Without a definitive race, religion, orientation or culture, Gillie and Marc’s iconic hybrid-duo symbolize the acceptance of all people as one. 'She loved the sound of her own music' was inspired by the way that, in some form, each and every one of us has created, listened to and shared music at some point in our lives. It has the power to calm, excite, surprise, and overwhelm us. Whether we’re at a concert with friends, singing alone in the shower, or listening to a busker play on the streets of an exotic location, it is through music that we realize we’re not so different after all.

Description
Ndotto's Story
On the very peak of the Ndoto Mountains, in Kenya’s remote Northern Frontier District, a tiny newborn baby elephant was found confused, alone and scared in a throng of sheep and goats. This little calf had evidently become mixed up in the nomadic Samburu tribesmen’s livestock soon after he was born. It is probably that the human presence is what frightened his mother leaving the abandoned calf mixed up in the livestock. The traditional Samburu pastoralists here live in an extremely isolated and inaccessible area of Kenya, a beautiful and majestic landscape. Despite many of the Samburu people being sympathetic and use to living this life of coexistence between man, their livestock and the wild animals, sometimes human wildlife conflict can unintentionally create these kinds of tragedies.

The game of hide and seek conjures feelings from our childhood of safety, love and joy. Gillie and Marc believe that all people and all creatures have the right to live in a world where safety and love are the rule, not the exception. Unfortunately, safety is often seen as a privilege rather than a right for many species of animals. Endangered species have had to hide from humankind for far too long. With 'Come out, come out wherever you are', the artists call on the world to welcome these species out from hiding and into a place of safety and love.

Maktao's Story
In the early morning on the 21st of July reports from a community member were received by the DSWT Ziwani Anti-Poaching team based in Tsavo West National Park alerting them about an elephant calf that had been sighted the previous day alone. That morning he was found again, still alone in hostile territory. Because some of the neighboring communities have suffered at the hands of crop raiding elephants and given the location we suspect human wildlife conflict the reason for this young baby being orphaned.

Maktao is part of Gillie and Marc's exhibition - The Orphans.

Description
‘Together Forever on Wheels’ incorporates two of Gillie and Marc’s most popular sculpture themes, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, Vespas, and coffee. Since they met while travelling, adventure and exploring have been a huge inspiration in their work. The artists have a soft spot for Vespas because it gives them an excuse to hold tightly to one another. Rabbitwoman takes the lead on the bike while Dogman gets cosy in the sidecar next to her, trusting her to take him somewhere incredible. With a seat on the back of the bike, this sculpture is interactive, allowing the public to jump on and be part of Rabbitwoman and Dogman’s next adventure. This amazing sculpture has been installed in major cities across the world to show love and acceptance and is part of the ‘Travel Everywhere With Love’ project.

Why Gillie and Marc has collaborated with The Brunswick, how that began, and how the artists decided to get involved working with The Brunswick.

The Brunswick in the heart of London is so much more than just a shopping centre. An establishment of the city, locals and tourists flock to the centre for their eclectic shopping options and exciting events. A safe space for everyone, The Brunswick hosts’ community events for all ages, backgrounds, and interests. From multicultural events such as a Bollywood night to an exhibition of fun and artistic sculptures of superheroes, The Brunswick gives the opportunity for everyone in the community to come together, learn about different cultures and interests, and have fun.

This inclusivity is a big reason why Gillie and Marc decided that The Brunswick would be a wonderful organisation to partner with. The artist’s sculptures promote understanding and openness, the key ingredients for a more loving and accepting community. The sculpture that they will be installing at The Brunswick is part of the broader project ‘Travel Everywhere With Love’. This is a global art project that is re-uniting the world with openness, unity, understanding and love. Understanding the significance of the travelling hybrid duo depicted in the sculptures, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, those who come across them will know that the hosting location believes in peace, harmony, and progress, which is exactly what The Brunswick stand for.

The sculpture they will get ‘Together Forever on Wheels’ incorporates two of Gillie and Marc’s most popular sculpture themes, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, Vespas, and coffee.

Rabbitwoman and Dogman are the artist’s favourite subjects for their art. Usually enemies in the animal world, our rabbit and dog can put their differences aside and come together with love and understanding as soul mates. Representing diversity and togetherness and without a definitive race, religion, or culture, they symbolize all people as one. Since they met while travelling, adventure and exploring have been a huge inspiration in Gillie and Marc’s work. Travelling gives the opportunity to discover the world, meet people of different cultures, and try new foods. It is such an important way to broaden horizons and become more understanding of those who are different. Rabbitwoman and Dogman are constantly off on different adventures, encouraging the public to step out of their front doors and fall in love with the world and the people and animals in it.

The artists have a soft spot for Vespas. Incredibly stylish and fun to zip around on, they also give an excuse to hold on tightly to one another. Coffee in hand, Rabbitwoman takes the lead on the bike while Dogman gets cosy in the sidecar next to her, trusting her to take him somewhere incredible. With a seat on the back of the bike, this sculpture is interactive, allowing the public to jump on and be part of Rabbitwoman and Dogman’s next adventure.

This amazing sculpture has been installed in major cities across the world to show love and acceptance and is part of the ‘Travel Everywhere With Love’ project. The Brunswick will now join this project and will be linked to all the other sculptures across the globe in a community of love and acceptance.

Emoli's Story
On the 23rd of August visitors to Tsavo East came across a calf collapsed and barely breathing along the Voi river circuit. The drought in the southern sector of Tsavo has really hit wildlife hard, particularly the elephants that have remained in that area, with many Mums’ and their calves succumbing to the dry conditions, because while water remains it’s the scarcity of food that is the challenge. Sadly the mothers with young calves have been unable to travel the distances required to find better browse, so choose to remain anchored close to water points, and because of this they are more often than not the first casualties of such brutal droughts. This area of Tsavo is experiencing one of the worst in many decades, with poor rains for two years in a row, so in the recent months we have experienced as many as 100 elephants dying from this 2017 drought in the southern area of Tsavo, and sadly numerous calves, found too late to save.

Tagwa's Story

On 6th May Angela was called by Simon Gitau, Senior Warden Mount Kenya, with reports of an orphaned elephant sighted in community lands, abandoned by the elephant herds of Mount Kenya National Park. The community thankfully were elephant friendly and sought to find assistance for the little baby alerting KWS personnel in the area.

This is a sculpture that represents more than orphaned calves. This is a yearlong celebration of hope and strength for the generation who will grow up into the healthy and supported elephants of tomorrow thanks to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. The future of their species in the wild relies on this young generation being strong. Strength we can all help to provide. Because by December next year, when this sculpture leaves London, they’ll have only 19 years left to defy the odds with another generation to follow. This is a sculpture for positive change. One we won’t let become a memorial.

Description
Canberra’s National Zoo and Aquarium is a small, friendly tourist site that allows its visitors to get up and close and personal with the animals. Crowd favourites are lioness Millie and her two baby cubs, Marjan and Sabi.

When the artists were approached to make something to welcome the guests staying in the Jamala Lodge, they wanted to keep with the Zoo’s “close encounter” atmosphere. Gillie and Marc recreated Millie playing with her lion cubs and the children absolutely adore it. Every day, loads of photos are taken of the children with the sculpture, cuddling the lions they just saw within the zoo.

Gillie and Marc believe art should be touched and loved. For children in particular, the physical laying of hands on animals creates a stronger emotional connection.

It's great to be a blonde. With low expectations, it's very easy to surprise people.You could be forgiven for considering poodles the pageant queens of the dog world they even seem to have a different posture than other dogs. They stand with their head held high and their chest out. Their fur is always perfectly permed and sometimes their owners even give them avant garde haircuts. Actually, theyre one of the smartest dog breeds. Theyre easy to train because they pay attention, and are loyal to their owners. Poodles are also very sensitive; they can suffer terrible separation anxiety and flinch if theyre touched unexpectedly. This is Pamela Anderson, as she will most likely be remembered in her high cut Baywatch swimsuit. For all the controversy she has courted in the tabloids over her career, shell always be an icon because of her famous figure. Gillie and Marc are intrigued by the way the public reacts to a famous figure like this with doll like proportions, that can seem so far away from ordinary. As Gillie and Marc considered how to turn Pamela into a hybrid they learnt more about her contradictions. She has walked the runway for Vivienne Westwood and signed copies of her book at Wal Marts. Shes married and divorced rock stars while campaigning fiercely for animal rights. During her time on the show that thrust her into the limelight she became the ultimate California girl, despite being Canadian. They feel they've found her perfect match in the deceptively clever poodle.

Description
Im not bad. Im just drawn that way The rabbit is one of Gillie and Marcs favourite hybrids and they didn't just chose the rabbit for Jessica Rabbit because she married one and took his name. They saw qualities in the rabbit that were completely different to the qualities Jessica Rabbit is said to possess. Rabbits are timid prey animals, with acute hearing and sight who become startled very easily. They run away at the slightest jolt, and get very anxious. Jessica Rabbit was depicted as a woman with endless confidence, who held men captive. Her impossible curves quickly became iconic and in Who Framed Roger Rabbit men constantly fawned and obsessed over her. Its definitely fair to say that if Jessica Rabbit were a real woman she would be very intimidating. So when Gillie and Marc wanted to create a life-size bronze Jessica Rabbit it was important to them to turn her into a hybrid that would make her less intimidating.

Description
The most endangered animal in the world, this 20-year-old northern white rhino has a lot resting on her shoulders. She is constantly watched by people but she knows that this is for a very good reason. Even without her guard, people still try to get her, all for the horn which she can’t understand why they would possibly want. But for now, she will roam the confines of her reserve with her mother and hope that people will stop trying to force her into extinction.

The white rhino is the second-largest land mammal in the world and is not actually white at all. Its name may have come from a misunderstanding of the Afrikaan’s name “weit” which means wide. White rhinos have a wide square lip whereas black rhinos have a pointed upper lip, so the name could be in reference to their mouth. On the grassy plains of Africa, they use their wide lip to graze, sometimes in groups before finding a nice water hole to cool off in the mud.

There are two species of white rhino, the northern and southern. The southern rhino was thought to be extinct until the late 19^th century when a small population was discovered in South Africa. With a lot of hard work and dedication, they were able to bring this species back from the brink where it is now classified as near threatened, a major conservation success story. The southern white rhino makes up 98.8% of all white rhino. The remaining 0.02% is the northern white rhino. There are only 2 left in the world, mother and daughter Najin and Fatu. They are under 24 hour guarded surveillance at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya where they are still threatened by poachers.

White rhinos give birth to very large calves. Weighing between 40-65 kg, the babies are huge. The newborns are very unsteady for the first few days and completely reliant on their mothers until they are weaned which could be as old as 12 months. The mother is very protective of her calf. When threatened, the baby will run towards its mother who will passionately defend it, meaning that young rhinos are very rarely attacked. When the mother is about to give birth to her next calf, she will chase off her current baby to prepare.

Rhinos have to deal with a great many things when it comes to survival. Africa is a harsh place to call home, with extreme temperatures, great predators, and the worst of them all, poachers. Rhinos are especially targeted for their horns which are sold on the black market at a staggering price, as much as the cost of gold in weight. They are used for traditional medicines in China and Vietnam where they are thought to possess therapeutic properties. Being made from keratin, the same material as our hair and fingernails, this is not true. Even so, the market is still surging.

Description
This group of men have had a tough 2 months. They have survived freezing temperatures, storms so intense it’s impossible to see anything, and no food. But it’s all been worth it. They passed their precious baby which they watched hatch on their feet to their partner, and now it’s time to kick back from daddy-duty and fill their tummies. They have always had to be careful on these journeys, they aren’t the only hungry ones. Orcas and leopard seals are waiting for their arrival. They must be acrobats in the water to avoid them. But they can’t avoid the humans taking their food. The humans never seem to have enough fish and don’t like to share.

The largest of all the penguins, these beautiful birds make their home in one of the most inhospitable places in the world, Antarctica. These hardy birds are like no other. They can dive deeper than any other bird (500m), last without eating for longer (4 months) and is the only bird that breeds on the ice, during winter! With such extreme habits in such an extreme environment, these birds are fascinating.

With temperatures dropping down to -60 °C, these birds must work together to survive. They huddle together in a big group using their collective body heat to give the penguins in the centre protection from the wind. Once a penguin in the middle gets nice and warm it moves itself to the outside to give others a turn. But they also have special adaptations that help them out. They are naturally well insulated with body fat and several layers of feathers. They are also adapted to their deep, freezing dives which can last for around 20 minutes. With unusually structured haemoglobin which allows them to function with low oxygen levels, solid bones to help with the intense changes in pressure, and the ability to slow down their metabolism and shut down non-essential organs, these birds can achieve remarkable dives.

Emperor penguins have a very curious breeding system. They meet on the ice at the start of winter to breed. A few months later, the female lays her egg. This process makes her very hungry, so the male steps up to take his turn. She passes her egg from the tops of her feet to his, being extremely careful not to let the egg drop onto the freezing ice, before heading off to the open ocean to feed, a journey up to 80km away! The male is left to look after the egg, covering it with his feathered skin, called a brood pouch for the 65 days it takes to hatch, protecting it from the icy winds and storms. Once the two months is up, the female returns with a full belly, ready to regurgitate her food to the hungry chick. Since there is no fixed nest, she must use vocal calls to find her partner and chicks. Once found, the mother takes over childcare duties and the father hungrily sets off for his turn to eat. The mother must keep her chick warm in her brood pouch as they could die in just a few minutes if they are exposed. As the summer arrives the timing of the emperor penguins breeding makes sense. Just as the chicks are old enough to swim and fish by themselves, the summer sun breaks up the ice and open waters open up near the breeding site, ready for the young penguins first dip in the water.

It has been a recent development that the emperor penguin was moved from least concern to near threatened. The main threats this penguin faces are declining food, primarily caused by climate change and industrial fishing. They are also threatened with disease, habitat destruction, and the disturbance of breeding colonies by humans. Emperor penguins are very sensitive to changes in their climate. Studies have found that adult death rates increased in warmer periods with less sea-ice coverage, but when sea-ice increased, chick deaths increased. Scientists have predicted that with rising temperatures melting the sea ice, all colonies will see declining numbers through habitat loss and loss of krill, their primary food.

Description
This 25-year-old male is the head of his family. With his beautiful silver fur on his back, he is easily identified as their leader. Though he is big and strong and a force to be reckoned with, he is a peaceful leader. He prefers to live in harmony and empathy, making sure that everyone in his family is well cared for and protected. This gentle giant will go to any lengths to support his family and keep them from harm.

Also known as Grauer’s gorilla, the eastern lowland gorilla is the largest out of the four gorilla species and one of our closest relatives sharing 98% of our DNA. Their fur is jet black and the males develop beautiful silver fur on their backs as they mature, giving them the name silverback. They spend most of their time eating their favourite foods which include fruits, leaves, stems, bark, and on occasion small insects such as ants and termites.

Eastern lowland gorillas are very social and very peaceful animals. They live in groups, from 2 to over 40 members, mainly female and led by a dominant male. About a third of the groups have two full-grown males, creating a harem. Females and males reach sexual maturity at different ages: 8 years old for females and 12 years old for males. A mother will give birth to one baby at a time who she will breastfeed for about three years. The baby will stay close to its mother for protection even when they start to walk at 35 weeks old. They will stay with her for three or four years before finding their own community once they reach sexual maturity.

The numbers of eastern lowland gorilla are estimated to be around 3,800, a 50% decline since the 90s. However, it is difficult to know for sure because of the civil unrest that has been raging in the DRC for decades. The gorillas face many threats concerning this, their national parks having their funding cut, illegal mines being set up in their homes, and less monitoring making it easier for people to hunt gorillas for bushmeat. One of the things that fuelled the civil unrest is mining for tin, gold, diamond, and coltan (used in cell phones). Illegal mining outcrops have popped up all over the gorilla’s home, which also attracts people to hunt gorilla and trade the babies on the illegal pet trade. They have also faced massive habitat loss and fragmentation as people move in and destroy the gorilla’s homes for livestock.

Description
This 9-year-old female is sick of being so close to other hippos. They aren’t the most patient of animals so when they are forced so close, tempers get hot. She wishes there were more options for them to go, but water holes seem to be harder and harder to find and hot property for every hippo around. She is on a mission to let the people know that they need the water holes for themselves, and on a side note, they need their tusks to stay in their mouths too!

The water-loving giants were given the name “river horse” by the Greeks and for good reason. The hippopotamus spends up to 16 hours of its day in the water, keeping cool from the baking African sun. They are very graceful swimmers and can hold their breath for up to minutes. This isn’t surprising considering their closest relatives are whales and dolphins. They secrete an oily red substance to protect themselves from the harsh rays which act as a sunblock and moisturiser and may even protect them against germs. This red stuff sparked a few rumours that they sweat blood but we can assure you that this isn’t true!

As the sun goes down the hippos come out of the water to graze on grasses. Hippos can get a bit feisty. They are highly aggressive and very unpredictable making them one of the most dangerous animals in the world. They are very good runners and can match humans for speed for short distances. They also have an impressive yawn which can be used as a threat display.

Hippos love the water so much they even mate and give birth there. The baby must swim to the surface to take their first breath so are born swimming! The babies need a lot of help from mum, resting on her back if the water is too deep for them and as protection from predators such as crocodiles, lions, hyenas and male hippos. When they want to suckle, they may have to do it underwater where they close their ears and nostrils so they don’t breathe in water. Hippo mothers are very protective of their calves but will sometimes leave them in nurseries under the watchful eye of a few adults. Here, the babies can have playfights with other calves, developing important skills for when they are full grown. The calves are fully weaned after a year.

Hippos are threatened by habitat loss, seeing their favourite water holes drying up at an alarming rate. With climate change reducing the rainy season they are also seeing reduced food options. They are also at major risk from poaching, a 2006 study showing a 20% reduction of their populations in the past decade. They are killed for their meat as well as the ivory from their tusks. Like elephants, this ivory is worth a lot of money and is a huge draw for many people desperate to make a living. Many local people are also reliant on their meat for food.

Description
This zebra is 8 years old and has loved making her home on the beautiful grasslands of Ethiopia. Even though she may look similar to everyone in her herd, she knows she is special and unique. Even so, the humans that she shares her beloved home with don’t seem to see her the same way. They are constantly taking more of her land to give to their livestock and even come out with guns! She knows her family is dropping in numbers and hopes that she can find support to save her herd.

With stipes as unique as our fingerprints, the zebra is an iconic member of African wildlife. Grevy’s zebra is the largest and most endangered and is more closely related to the wild ass than the horse, the more common plains zebras’ cousins. Its name comes from the president of France, Jules Grevy who was given a zebra as a gift by the emperor of Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) in 1882. When a French zoologist met the gifted creature, he named it in honour of his president.

Zebras only give birth to one foal at a time and these babies are born with the ability to walk nearly immediately. This is very important because they are very at risk of predators and since they don’t hide they need to be able to run. New mothers keep their young separate for the first few days of their foals life so that they don’t imprint on any other mare. The foals must learn their mother's pattern, vocalisations, and scent and in the first few days of their life, they will follow anyone. Once the foal has imprinted, she will sometime leave her foal in a ‘kindergarten’ while she goes in search of water. These are groups of foals protected by an adult, often a territorial male, and a mare. Normally the foal will follow his mother wherever she goes, learning what to eat and the migratory routes of the herd following the seasons.

Grevy’s zebra is a very important part of the ecosystem on the dry, semi-arid scrub and grasslands they call home. Grazing with many other creatures such as antelope and wildebeest, the zebra helps them all out by taking off the hard, dry ends of the grass that the other grazers can’t digest. The zebra is well adapted to this environment. Unlike the plains zebra who needs lots of water, Grevy’s can go 5 days without any at all!

Grevy’s zebra has seen one of the biggest declines in their environment than any other African animal. With more and more land being converted to grazing pastures for livestock, the zebra has to compete for both food and water. Because of this, the survival rate of young zebras is very low. In the past 30 years, the population has dropped approximately 54%. In Ethiopia, the main threat is hunting, primarily for their skins but also for their meat and use in medicines.

Description
This shy 12-year-old chimp loves living in the tranquillity of her forest with her family. She has decided to stay with her mother rather than finding a new community, helping to care for her siblings and teach them everything she knows. She loves the peaceful moments with her friends and gets out of the way quick sharp when the alpha starts throwing his weight around. But the alpha isn’t the only one she’s learnt to run from, there’s something far more dangerous; humans.

The chimpanzee is our closest living relative, sharing about 99% of our DNA. It’s even thought that we have a common ancestor who lived sometime between 7-13 million years ago! Through research we have been able to see some of the magical similarities between us and chimpanzees. We all have our own unique personalities, are incredibly social, can learn basic sign-language, and, most importantly use and make tools.

A chimpanzee will usually only give birth to one baby at a time. The babies are completely helpless and the level of love and care given by the mother is crucial for a healthy baby. For the first 30 days of their life, the baby will cling to their mother's belly and will move on to riding on their backs at 5 or 6 months. They start to be able to move around independently by the age of 2 and by 4-6 are weaned. As young chimps, they will still stay with their mothers for up to 9 years. Until then, the mother will play with her baby and teach them all the important skills needed for being a chimp.

Chimps are incredibly social creatures. They have intricate connections between the different members of their community, touching, cuddling, and sometimes fighting with each other. Grooming is an incredibly important part of chimp life. Not only is it important to stay clean and tidy, but it’s also a fantastic way to strengthen bonds, build alliances, and relax. Chimps can spend a few minutes and even up to a few hours grooming each other, maintaining friendly ties between the community. The important bonds between chimpanzees can also be seen when the grieve for their dead. Those who were closest to the deceased are visibly more upset and spend a lot more time in the process of mourning. Mothers will carry their dead babies around; others will groom their friend. This shows their diverse and complex emotions, and most importantly, their ability to love.

Chimpanzees are now endangered because of our actions. Because of major increases in human populations, miles and miles of their habitat is being destroyed, clearing space for city expansion, agriculture, roads, logging, and mining. This is making it harder for the chimps to survive, forcing them to live in smaller and smaller spaces and putting a major strain on food options. This issue over food, in particular, has led to human-chimpanzee conflict. In their desperation to find enough to eat, the chimps are forced to come to human settlements to steal food, mainly easy to grab things such as fruit, but when things are really tough, they have been known to take children. Families retaliate by killing the chimps to stop any other attacks. Chimps are also targeted by bushmeat hunters as they provide plenty of meat compared to other smaller animals. The hunters are also known to take the young as their pets or sell them on the illegal pet trade, a lifestyle that is never suitable for a wild animal. With DNA so similar to our own it is not surprising that chimpanzees are susceptible to many of the same diseases that we are. Since the 1980s, Ebola has been a major threat killing hundreds of thousands of chimpanzees.

Description
This 13-year-old female is very special. She is so rare that her species was nearly wiped out. She can’t understand why people are so interested in her horn that they would rather have that than save a species. Luckily, she has been saved (mostly) from the poachers, tucked away in her national park. But she is still not safe. She needs the help of people now more than ever if her species is to survive and one day have a population greater than double-digits.

With only around 74 left in one national park in Java, the Ujung Kulon National Park, the Javan Rhino is one of the most endangered animals in the world. Once the most widespread Asian rhinoceros, ranging right through Southeast Asian to India and China it is now confined to the tropical jungles of its protected national park, the last sanctuary. The last Javan rhino in Vietnam was found in 2010, dead with its horn removed.

Javan rhinos are solitary animals and very rarely seen. The males have large territories which they mark with urine, faeces, scrapes, and twisted saplings. The females have much smaller territories and overlap with each other. They are vegetarians, eating mostly leaves, young shoots and twigs. They also spend a large portion of their day wallowing in mud. They find pools and puddles and deepen them with their horn and feet. It is very important for them for thermo-regulation, keeping their skin in good condition, and getting rid of any parasites and insects.

Poaching is the reason this animal is facing extinction. Their horn is used in traditional Asian medicine and is worth its weight in gold. It has been proven that rhino horn has no medicinal benefits and though it is made of keratin, the same substance as our fingernails, the market continues. Now, poaching is not so much of a threat for the Javan rhino as the species is heavily guarded however, poaching has not been eliminated completely. Another big threat is genetic diversity. With such a small population there is a risk of inbreeding. Their habitat, even though it is protected, is also under threat. The Arenga palm has taken over large parts of their home, taking away food options. It is also being degraded by the people living nearby who encroach on the park, including development for ‘eco’ tourism.

Description
This 2-year-old baby boy loves playing. He’s finally confident enough to spend a bit of time away from mum playing with his siblings and learning to climb. But he is worried. He has noticed that a lot of gorillas in his community have been getting sick and dying. And some are just disappearing! It seems to happen whenever a human comes close. He has been told to stay away from the humans, they might to catch him and keep him in a cage.

The smallest of all the gorilla, the Western Lowland Gorilla are the most widespread, found in the thick tropical rainforests of western and central Africa. These vegetarians spend a lot of their time eating their favourite foods; roots, shoots, fruit, wild celery, and tree bark and pulp. They are incredibly peaceful animals, living calm and nonviolent lives, except when they are provoked. When this happens, the dominant male can demonstrate his strength with a mighty display, standing on two-foot, charging, pounding his chest, hooting, and giving an almighty roar.

Just like us, female gorillas usually give birth to just one baby at a time. These little ones are tiny and helpless, only weighing about four pounds, and are completely dependent on their mother. They cling to her fur for safety until about four months old when they learn to ride on her back. They will stay safely on mums back for the first 2-3 years of their lives, watching and learning and getting a lot of love from mum. As they get older, they will start to play, climbing trees, wrestling, chasing each other, and learning everything they need to know to be a good chimp. They are dependent on their mothers for up to 5 years.

Gorillas are some of the most intelligent animals in the world and can even learn sign language! Koko the gorilla shocked the world in the 1970s with her ability to learn and communicate in sign language. She mastered 1000 signs and was able to make statements of up to 8 words to let people know what she wanted or thought. Koko was also elevated to stardom when she adopted a kitten as a pet, a pet she had asked for, showing such care and love as if it were her own child. When her kitten died, she signed "Bad, sad, bad" and "Frown, cry, frown, sad, trouble" and was even heard making a sound similar to a human crying. Koko passed away in 2018.

The main threats for this gorilla are poaching and disease and it is estimated that their numbers have declined by over 65% in the past 20-25 years. Hunting the adults for bushmeat and the babies for pets is a big problem. In Northeast Congo alone, approximately 5% are killed each year because of this. Being so closely related to us in terms of DNA is also a big problem when it comes to disease. Central Africa has been struggling with the deadly Ebola virus for a long time and it’s not just humans affected. Gorillas and chimpanzee have been badly affected with estimates stating that one-third of wild gorilla populations, mostly made up of the western lowland gorilla, have been killed. One community, once considered one of the most important populations, the Minkébé Forest, have lost 90% of their population to Ebola.

The Tasmanian Tiger, also known as the thylacine, was a carnivorous marsupial endemic to Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea. It was the largest known carnivorous marsupial of modern times, and had distinctive tiger-like stripes on its lower back. The Tasmanian Tiger was unfortunately hunted to extinction in the early 20th century, but its striking appearance and mysterious reputation continue to capture the imaginations of people around the world. This is a reminder of what we have lost and how fragile our natural world is.

Description
Swinging through the trees holding hands with her friends is the three-year-old baby orangutan. She has so much fun doing this but has started to notice something. Her beautiful rainforest with all the exciting and interesting trees and plants are starting to all look like the same tree. It is always noisy, the sound of some great machine and the crashing of falling trees and there are humans everywhere. She had always been told to keep away from humans. Many babies like her had been taken away by them. They are dangerous.

The Malay word for “man of the forest”, orangutan, is the name for our orange-haired cousins. Only found in the rainforests of Sumatra and Borneo in Indonesia and Malaysia, these arboreal great apes spend most of their time in trees with incredibly long arms fit for swinging. They are known as “gardeners” of the forest and are vital for seed dispersal. Males and females are sexually dimorphic so they are very easy to tell apart. The males have large cheek pads and a sagittal crest (a ridge of bone running like a mohawk along the skull) to show their dominance over other males.

Baby orangutans are completely dependent on their mothers for the first two years of their lives. They will be carried around on their mother’s belly having constant physical contact for the first 4 months. They will do everything together, travel, eat, and sleep. After this period the two start to spend more and more time apart. The mother will often enlist the help of one of her older children to help her raise her baby and socialise it. Once it is about 1 ½, the baby will be quite a good climber and will be able to swing from tree to tree, holding hands with other orangutans in what is called “buddy travel”. But even when they become an adolescent at the age of 6 or 7, the baby will still find time for their mum.

Orangutans are one of the most intelligent non-human primates. They use tools, some even creating a toolkit containing insect-extraction sticks and seed-extraction sticks, adapting their tool for the task and even saving it for later. They have voluntary control over their vocalisations and one orangutan in the US National Zoo even learnt to whistle! They also show many humans characteristics such as laughter.

All three species of orangutan are listed as critically endangered and are legally protected in both Indonesia and Malaysia. Even so, they are easy targets for hunters being large and slow. The females are the most hunted for bushmeat with their babies being kept as pets, sent off on the illegal pet trade. Habitat loss is perhaps the biggest problem. Their home has been disappearing at a rapid rate to make way for palm oil plantations and other such projects. Over the past decade, it is estimated that orangutan populations have declined by 50% in the wild.

Description
This 3-month-old is a southern white rhino. It is very easy to distinguish her from a baby northern white rhino because there are no baby northern white rhinos in the entire world. She lives in a National Park in southern Africa where there is now a lot more protection for her. Poachers are wiping out rhinos all over the world, lusting after their horns which can get them a lot of money on the black market.

There are only 2 left in the world, mother and daughter Najin and Fatu. They are under 24 hour guarded surveillance at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya where they are still threatened by poachers. The white rhino is the second-largest land mammal in the world and is not actually white at all. Its name may have come from a misunderstanding of the Afrikaan’s name “weit” which means wide. White rhinos have a wide square lip whereas black rhinos have a pointed upper lip, so the name could be in reference to their mouth.

Description
This 8-month-old polar bear is out of his warm den and having the best of time. He and his sister have been snuggled up with their mother over the winter and are now thrilled to be able to play, tumbling and wrestling with each other in a game that will teach them crucial skills to defend themselves. But his mother is worried. Every year she has seen the sea ice declining further and further. She worries about her cubs and how they will find food without coming into contact with humans.

A descendent of the brown bear, the polar bear is the only bear who is considered a marine mammal. They spend so much time on the freezing sea ice and are completely dependent on the ocean for both it’s food and habitat. They are very strong swimmers with large front paws and slightly webbed back feet and can swim constantly for days at a time. Their thick white fur that is crucial for keeping them warm is not white, but translucent, reflecting the snow around them which gives it it’s colour. Their skin on the other hand is black.

Polar bears live solitary lives, learning all the skills necessary with their mother and sibling (usually polar bears give birth to twins) before heading out on their own. The mother will usually give birth in winter, digging a den deep in a snowdrift to protect her cubs and give them some insulation from the freezing outdoors. The mother started her winter in hibernation and once her cubs are born, she continues to fast while still feeding her cubs on milk. When the weather starts to warm the mother will break out of the den, feeding on any vegetation while her cubs play, getting used to using their legs for walking. When they are ready, they will start the long walk to the sea ice where the mother can hunt for seal. The cubs will stay with her for 28 months before she chases them away, forcing them to become independent.

Despite their stereotype for being aggressive, the polar bear is not territorial and will often choose to run away rather than fight. Polar bears will usually only attack if they are severely provoked or hungry. This doesn’t mean they aren’t dangerous. The largest of all bears, this is not an animal you would want to cross.

But with Arctic sea ice cover declining by about 14% per decade, the polar bear is coming into trouble. With less sea ice to hunt on, polar bears are forced into areas inhabited by humans to search for food. This can be dangerous for both bear and human. They are also threatened by our industrial exploits that are becoming more and more frequent in the Arctic, the hunt for oil. Not only is this a disturbance and taking away more of their homes, but an oil spill could also be devastating for them as well as the entire ecosystem. It is so important to look for alternatives to help protect these precious bears and all the other animals who call this wintery wonderland home.

This cub is ready to explore his snowy home. He has been tucked in a den for winter and now it’s time for him to play and get used to his legs before his long walk to the sea ice. His biggest threats are other polar bears who may try to kill him and habitat loss from the warming temperatures, leaving his species vulnerable. #wildaboutbabies #lovethelast

Description
At 3 months old this little boy is finally old enough to follow his mother out on a hunt. Picking their way through the jungles of India, they search for something to at. He stays as quiet as a can, fighting the urge to playfully launch himself at his mothers swinging tail. But after hours of searching the have found nothing. They see a farm up ahead with plenty of animals, but the leopard cub can feel his mothers unease. It’s dangerous taking from the humans but this time, it seems they have no choice.

The smallest of the large cats may be one of the most adaptable, the leopard can live in almost any type of habitat, from deserts to swamps. They are solitary creatures who spend their days sleeping and their night's hunting, using their spotted “rosette” coat as camouflage, blending in with the leaves of trees.

They spend a decent amount of their time in trees being very capable climbers. They will even drag their prey, which can sometimes way more than they do, up to protect it from other scavenging animals. They are quite happy to eat whatever comes their way, from a gazelle to a cheetah cub, or even a snake.

Leopards usually give birth to at least two cubs who are small and grey with barely visible spots. They are completely helpless and the mother needs to move them to different safe locations until they can start playing and learning to hunt. It is a very dangerous time for a leopard as cubs have a mortality rate of 41-50% in their first year. They are threatened by different predators but their biggest threat is other leopards. At about 3 months old the cubs can follow their mother on hunts at one year old can hunt for themselves. They will stay with her for about 2 years.

The biggest threat to leopards is habitat loss and fragmentation with their forested homes being turned into agricultural land. In Africa alone, it has been estimated that 66% of their range is gone due to human expansion. This in turn reduces their natural prey, forcing them to look to livestock which has deep repercussions when the farmers retaliate. They are also a target for trophy hunters and poachers. Their coats are a coveted item on the illegal wildlife trade as are its bones.

Description
Being in the water is one of the nicest ways to escape the scorching sun of Africa. This 2-month-old baby hippo loves getting wet, a born swimmer even if she may not look it. She feels safe here but her family pool is starting to get a bit crowded. There aren’t as many water holes for the hippos to choose from anymore so they have to share which can be scary for the baby when the adults start to annoy each other. She dreams that by the time she grows up there will be enough space for everyone.

The water-loving giants were given the name “river horse” by the Greeks and for good reason. The hippopotamus spends up to 16 hours of their day in the water, keeping cool from the baking African sun. They are very graceful swimmers and can hold their breath for up to minutes. This isn’t surprising considering their closest relatives are whales and dolphins. They secrete an oily red substance to protect themselves from the harsh rays which act as a sunblock and moisturiser and may even protect them against germs. This red stuff sparked a few rumours that they sweat blood but we can assure you that this isn’t true!

As the sun goes down the hippos come out of the water to graze on grasses. Hippos can get a bit feisty. They are highly aggressive and very unpredictable making them one of the most dangerous animals in the world. They are very good runners and can match humans for speed for short distances. They also have an impressive yawn which can be used as a threat display.

Hippos love the water so much they even mate and give birth there. The baby must swim to the surface to take their first breath so are born swimming! The babies need a lot of help from mum, resting on her back if the water is too deep for them and as protection from predators such as crocodiles, lions, hyenas and male hippos. When they want to suckle, they may have to do it underwater where they close their ears and nostrils so they don’t breathe in water. Hippo mothers are very protective of their calves but will sometimes leave them in nurseries under the watchful eye of a few adults. Here, the babies can have play fights with other calves, developing important skills for when they are full grown. The calves are fully weaned after a year.

Hippos are threatened by habitat loss, seeing their favourite water holes drying up at an alarming rate. With climate change reducing the rainy season they are also seeing reduced food options. They are also at major risk from poaching. A 2006 study showing a 20% reduction in the past decade. They are killed for their meat as well as the ivory from their tusks. Like elephants, this ivory is worth a lot of money and is a huge draw for many people desperate to make a living. Many local people are also reliant on their meat for food.

Description
This 8-month-old joey is very dedicated to exploring every nook and cranny in her rocky home. It’s a bit of a labyrinth and takes some getting used to but she knows she is much safer up here where most other creatures don’t dare to climb. Things used to be a lot easier for her kind, she was told. There weren’t any of the cunning foxes who like to have rock wallaby joey for dinner or the goats that are now everywhere who get to all the good food first. They have tried to adapt to these changes but she knows there is only one way to fix the problem. If the humans help fix what they created.

Rock wallabies are small marsupials who like in fortress-like rocky homes in Australia. These nocturnal creatures spend their days in the shelter of their homes, either a cave, an overhang, or some kind of vegetation amongst the rocks, and venture out at night to feed. They have a highly adapted physique to help them nimbly get around their rocky homes. They have powerful legs and sharp claws which help them to climb trees and even scale nearly vertical rocks. They are the most diverse of all macropods (kangaroos, wallabies etc), with 19 species identified.

Rock wallabies are marsupials and so their young spend a lot of time in the warmth and safety of their mother’s pouch. They are born very tiny and not quite developed. They crawl up their mothers’ pouch to attach themselves to one of her teats inside where they continue to develop for 6-7 months. Once the joey is more developed it can start to venture out of mums pouch but will often jump back in whenever there is danger around. At 9 months old the joey is fully weaned and will leave its mothers pouch for the last time.

Rock wallabies vary in terms of their conservation status with some populations very at risk, even having disappeared from the south. They first became threatened with the arrival of Europeans where they began hunting them for their fur. But the bigger threat the Europeans bought was their foreign animals. Now, the biggest threats to the rock wallabies are from these introduced species such as red foxes who kill them, and other herbivores, particularly goats, sheep and rabbits who compete with them for food. With increasing habitat fragmentation and destruction, the wallabies are also at risk of lower genetic health because of their shrinking numbers.

Description
This mighty lion cub is still very little. At 10 weeks old she is not very fearsome. She would much rather play than attack anything! But she is working hard at getting her pouncing skills up to scratch and, of course, working on her roar. She always makes sure she is near one of the lionesses in her pride to keep her safe from predators. Soon, she will be apex predator and not have to worry about other wild animals. There is one threat that always remains, the effect of humans. It is not as uncommon to see other lions now and her mum and hunting buddies are finding it harder to find food for everyone. She doesn’t want to go hungry!

The mighty lion is one of the most iconic animals in the animal kingdom. It once roamed across all of Africa, Southeast Europe, and Western and South Asia but populations have dramatically declined. Now only found in fragmented pockets of sub-Saharan Africa and one critically endangered population in India, the lion is vulnerable. They are quite adaptable animals, happy to live in most places apart from tropical rainforests and deserts. They are also very social, the only cat that lives in groups called prides. These are made up of anywhere from 2 to 40 cats, mostly females and their cubs. Some lions do prefer a more nomadic existence.

Females are the hunters of the pride. Working in teams, they can take down large prey such as zebra, wildebeest and antelope which are often faster than them. The males spend much more time sleeping but are the best defence against any intruders who try to disturb the peace in the pride, though females are happy to step up if needed.

A female will give birth to 1-4 cubs at a time. She will make a den away from the pride, hunting alone so she can stay near her cubs. These cubs are born helpless with their eyes closed for a week after birth. She will move them many times each month to avoid predators catching wind of the smell of the cubs, moving each one individually. They will only come back to the pride when the cubs are about 6-8 weeks old, a scary experience for the young ones who have never met another adult lion. Lionesses may help to care for other cubs if she also has young, even synchronising their reproductive cycles to give the cubs the best chance of survival.

Being at the top of the food chain, they only have one predator, us. Habitat loss is the single biggest threat to lions. We are pushing them out of their habitats because of our swelling cities and increasing needs for land for agriculture, making their available space to live and thrive smaller and smaller. This means greater competition for food and territory, with not enough to go around for the once-thriving populations. As young lions leave their pride to form their own, they are increasingly finding it difficult to find anywhere suitable. Once able to roam the entire African continent, they are now restricted to small pockets, pockets that are still shrinking. Lions are therefore forced to come closer to the lives of humans, often being killed for this by angry farmers when they attack their livestock. Then there are the most disturbing threats. They are hunted by big trophy hunters looking for their next big wall mount or rug. They are also hunted for their bones, thought to have magical properties if you turn them into wine. Lion numbers in countries that allow this are being decimated, despite the claims of “sustainable offtake”.

Description
This baby girl loves trekking through her forested home in India, single file with her mum and aunties as they march around finding food. She finds it amazing watching how high her mum can reach to get the tastiest food, she will be that big one day too! But the matriarch of her herd has told her how far they used to march on their quest for food. It was so much bigger before, now as they walk their old routes they bump into parts with no trees, just funny buildings with lots of people. The people don’t like it when they go in there but what choice do they have?

These gentle giants are not just found in India as their name suggests, but many countries in mainland Asia including Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Malay Peninsula, Laos, China, Cambodia, and Vietnam. They are considered megaherbivores and need to consume huge amounts of food every day, a whopping 150 kg! They spend about 19 hours of their day dedicated to eating, wandering a huge area to find everything they need. This is great for the plants as well because the elephants distribute their seeds as they wander around. Their trunks have a special finger-like part which makes it very easy to grasp their intended food.

Indian elephants are constantly on the move, never staying anywhere for more than a few days. They travel in groups of females and their young, led by the oldest matriarch. They communicate with each other using low-frequency noises which can be herd for away. When they get hot, they flap their ears which helps them to release heat. They love water and can smell it up to 3 miles away. Once there they can take a long drink and have fun, diving and swimming. They have a natural buoyancy which gives their joints a nice break.

When a female is about to give birth, the other members of the herd crowd around to protect her. Her very large baby starts feeding on the mother’s milk and can stand after 2 hours. The entire herd helps to look after the calves so the baby is blessed with many dotting ‘aunties’. They are weaned at 2-4 years and the females are ready to mate themselves when they are 10 years old.

One of the biggest threats to Indian elephants is habitat loss and fragmentation. Increasing human populations means that expansion is booming with illegal encroachment into protected areas becoming a real problem. This takes away food and shelter for the elephants and can also stop them from walking their ancient migratory routes and meeting other herds. This is also a problem when they are forced to look for alternative food sources and move into human crops. They have caused millions of dollars worth of damage which results in very angry farmers who will often kill them to stop it from happening again. Another big problem is the illegal ivory trade. The males, the only ones with tusks, are poached for their precious ivory, a market that is still increasing despite being banned worldwide. This leaves the sex ratio severely unbalanced with far more females than males making it harder to find a mate.

Description
This baby is only 4 months old and loves finding wonderful mud holes to jump in. There are so many exciting things to see in her protected home and she has a lot to learn from mum. She feels quite safe in her sanctuary, her mother told her what it was like before when people with guns would hunt them. But now her mum has another problem. As they walk through the trees together, her mum tries to show her what plants are good to eat. But there is one plant that seems to be taking over and it is not good to eat at all.

With only around 74 left in one national park in Java, the Ujung Kulon National Park, the Javan Rhino is one of the most endangered animals in the world. Once the most widespread Asian rhinoceros, ranging right through Southeast Asian to India and China it is now confined to the tropical jungles of it’s protected national park, the last sanctuary. The last Javan rhino in Vietnam was found in 2010, dead with its horn removed.

Javan rhinos are solitary animals and very rarely seen. The males have large territories which they mark with urine, faeces, scrapes, and twisted saplings. The females have much smaller territories and overlap with each other. They are vegetarians, eating mostly leaves, young shoots and twigs. They also spend a large portion of their day wallowing in mud. They find pools and puddles and deepen them with their horn and feet. It is very important for them for thermo-regulation, keeping their skin in good condition, and getting rid of any parasites and insects.

Poaching is the reason this animal is facing extinction. Their horn is used in traditional Asian medicine and is worth its weight in gold. It has been proven that there are no medicinal benefits, rhino horn is made of keratin which is the same substance as our fingernails, yet still, the market continues. Now poaching is not so much of a threat for the Javan rhino as they are heavily guarded but it is not eliminated. Another big threat is genetic diversity. With such a small population there is a risk of inbreeding. Their habitat, even though it is protected, is also under threat. The Arenga palm has taken over large parts of their home, taking away food options. It is also being degraded by the people living nearby who encroach on the park, including development for ‘eco’ tourism.

Description
Tumbling out of the den in the Italian mountains come this 1-year-old bear and his twin brother, having a wonderful game of ‘who can pin who’. This is a lot of fun but also good practice for when they are older, their coordination still could be better! Living in their national park they feel quite safe but their mother has warned them to never go too close to the humans, especially when they have a gun. If the humans get scared then it’s could be the end of the little bear.

The Marsican brown bear, also known as the Apennine brown bear, is a critically endangered member of the Eurasian brown bear. They live in forested areas between 800 and 1700 meters in elevation where they can live for 20-25 years. These solitary bears are mainly nocturnal, foraging around for their favourite foods of tubers, roots, fungi, fruits, and berries, but they are also happy to eat insects, honey, eggs, carrion, and even a small mammal or two.

The only times when the bears are not nocturnal are during mating and when they have cubs. The cubs are usually born in winter, where the mother will find a nice rocky cave to make as a den. She will usually give birth to twins, but sadly the mortality rate for cubs is 50%. The cubs will stay with their mother for 2-3 years but they can roam around independently after only a few months thanks to their mother’s fatty milk.

Only found in a very small part of Italy, these isolated bears have seen their numbers drop dramatically. Currently, estimates have put their numbers at only 50 bears left in the wild. They mainly live in the Abruzzo-Lazio-Molise National Park which was created in 1923 for the specific purpose of protecting the bears. This was a fantastic initiative which helped to protect them from one of their greatest threats at the time, habitat loss. Now, even though they are protected under Italian law, their threats come mainly from humans who kill them when the bears are seen as a threat to the locals and their cattle. Another big threat is genetic diversity. As there are so few of them, genetic diversity has become very small, giving rise to issues of inbreeding.

Description
At 4 months old this baby African elephant is very playful. He loves exploring and chasing things and just cannot get enough of the bizarre swingy thing on his face, it’s so much fun! But there is one thing he is very scared of, the people with guns. He had seen one of his aunties being shot down by them. He hadn’t stuck around to see what happened but he had been told they took her tusks then left her there. He couldn’t imagine what he would do if that happened to his mum, how would he survive without her?

The African elephant is the largest land animal in the world and wanders across 37 countries in Africa. There are two subspecies, the Savanna (or bush) elephant and the Forest elephant. Forest elephants are slightly smaller and live in the forests of the Congo Basin. African elephants live in herds led by a matriarch, the biggest and oldest female who looks after her herd and leads them to water holes. Adult males tend to live alone or occasionally join an all-male group.

Elephants have the longest pregnancy of any other mammal, nearly 22 months. Not too surprisingly the baby is huge, weighing 200 pounds at birth and 3 feet tall. Elephants don’t have to worry about being a single parent, they have a system called allomothering. This means that not only the mother but all the young females in the herd will look after the baby. For the first 2 years of their life, the baby will suckle milk from its mother, a whopping 13 litres a day! Babies don’t understand the purpose of their trunk at first. They enjoy swinging it around and even suck it like a human baby would suck their thumb. At about 6-8 months old they learn to use it to eat and drink and once they reach a year old, they can do everything they need, like grasping and bathing. The females will stay with the herd forever while the males will set out on their own at around 12-14 years old.

African elephants are a keystone species meaning they are crucial for their environment. They use their tusks to dig up dry riverbeds in the dry season, digging down to the water hidden underneath and creating water holes for others. They are also important for seed dispersal, eating the seeds of different plants and dropping them all over the place in the form of their poop! The forest elephants also make pathways through the trees for other animals as their great size can power through while happily munching on seeds.

The biggest threat to African elephants is poaching for the ivory trade. 55 elephants are killed a day to fuel the ivory industry and orphaned baby elephants don’t stand much of a chance in the wild without their mothers. Unable to care for themselves and left with psychological scars from the traumatic event, orphaned calves would usually die. Habitat loss is also a major problem. In the last 25 years, the world lost a forested area the size of South Africa. Elephants roam up to 80km a day, so this forces them into dangerous and deadly confrontations with humans when they come into these new settlements, especially when an elephant can eat an entire season of crops in one night! The angry farmers will often kill them in retaliation. Drought that has been seen over much of East Africa in the last ten years is also drying up water holes and diminishing their available food, with plants and trees no longer able to flourish in their changing environment.

Description
Living in the wet bamboo forests in the mountains of China is just the life for a rolly black and white bear. This 7-month-old baby loves the peace and tranquillity disturbed only by him and his mother playfully tumbling through the undergrowth. Having no predators makes things a lot easier for this little bear but his mother worries about what he will do when he is old enough to leave home. Their habitat is getting much too small with people developing all around making it impossible to get from one side of their territory to the other.

The national treasure of China, this cuddly-looking black and white bear has been a symbol of conservation for decades. Living in the temperate forests of the mountains of China, they spend 12 hours of their day eating bamboo, 26-84 pounds of it. It has elongated wrist bones, similar to thumbs, which have developed specifically for the task of plucking stalks. Even though they may appear to be sedentary animals they are actually very good climbers and swimmers.

For most people, the only way to see a panda is in a zoo. Because of their iconic black and white markings, they become invisible in the masses of bamboo they hide in. Pandas are solitary creatures with an incredible sense of smell to help them to avoid one another. The only time they come together is to mate. Mating in captivity has been notoriously difficult with a natural mating now very rare. Incredibly, while the world sat in lockdown, two pandas finally found themselves in the mood. Maybe all they needed was a little privacy!

A mother will give birth to one or two cubs but she can only take care of one. These babies are born blind, cannot crawl, and are pink with little white hairs. The tiny baby is completely helpless and nurses 6-14 times a day in sessions up to half an hour long. Occasionally the mother will need to leave the den for a few hours to feed where she leaves her baby defenceless. They will start to develop their iconic black and white look a month after they are born. At about 2 ½ months old the mother will start to play and wrestle with her cub and feed it small amounts of bamboo but it will keep drinking her milk for a year. The family will stay together for about 2 years after which the cub will head out to find its own territory.

Giant pandas were rapidly heading towards extinction. But with a huge push for conservation efforts in the '60s, the giant panda has moved from the classification of rare to vulnerable, now with around 1,800 in the wild. 67 panda reserves in China protect around two-thirds of the giant pandas in the wild and more than 50% of the giant panda's habitat. This is important as one of the biggest threats still facing the panda is habitat loss. Development for dams, roads, and railways are fragmenting the panda's habitats making it difficult for them to find potential mates and more bamboo.

Description
On the grasslands of Africa is a litter of 5-month-old cheetah cubs who love to play. Wrestling and tumbling together they teach each other important life skills to be the best cheetah’s they can be. But this little girl must be careful. As well as her natural predators she must watch out for humans. Her mother warned her that if they ever caught her they could keep her to live with them, selling her as a pet where she would never be free again.

The fastest land mammal in the world, the cheetah would leave most cars for dust reaching speeds of up to 128km/h and, perhaps even more impressive, can hit 95km/h in just 3 seconds! At these speeds’ cheetahs are not just limited to a straight line. They are very nimble, able to suddenly change direction. Once they hit their top speed, they can maintain it for only about 30 seconds.

Cheetahs can have up to 8 cubs in a single litter. These babies are born blind and completely helpless with a beautiful mohawk-like hairstyle which they lose as they get older. It is thought that this interesting hair makes them look like a honey badger, giving them some protection from both the badgers and other predators who avoid them. This is very important as cubs are at great risk of death from predation. For the first two months of their life, their mother must be very cautious, never going far from her cubs and moving them every 5 or 6 days. When this high-risk period is over, the cubs will start following their mother everywhere she goes, starting to replace their mothers’ milk with solid food. They spend a lot of time practising to hunt, with mum letting pray go for them to pounce. They will stay, playing and learning everything they need to know before leaving at around 20 months.

Most cheetah subspecies, of which there are five, live on the grassy plains of Africa. One, the Asiatic cheetah is the only surviving cheetah population in Asia and only found in central Iran. With less than 50 remaining, this subspecies is listed as critically endangered.

There are many threats to cheetahs. Habitat loss is one of the biggest threats. With more and more of their habitat being transformed in agriculture, roads, and settlements, cheetahs are finding it harder to make a territory of their own and find enough prey. In Africa, about 76% of their habitat is outside of protected areas and it is quickly diminishing. With less prey, they are forced to turn to livestock as a solution which results in an often deadly retaliation from the farmer. Being quite sociable and easy to train, cheetahs are also at risk of being caught and traded on the exotic pet trade. They are also poached for their beautiful skins.

Description
From the famous Gombe Stream community in Tanzania, this 4-year-old chimp still has a lot to learn. He watches closely as his mum goes around her day to day life, learning as much as he can while taking every opportunity to have fun. He thought that he could be friends with another community that would sometimes come near his community, humans. They look and acted so similar to him he thought they would be great fun! But he was warned against them. They have been known to eat chimps and steal babies as their pets.

The chimpanzee is our closest living relative, sharing about 99% of our DNA. It’s even thought that we have a common ancestor who lived sometime between 7-13 million years ago! Through research we have been able to see some of the magical similarities between us and chimpanzees. We all have our own unique personalities, are incredibly social, can learn basic sign-language, and, most importantly use and make tools.

A chimpanzee will usually only give birth to one baby at a time. The babies are completely helpless and the level of love and care given by the mother is crucial for a healthy baby. For the first 30 days of their life, the baby will cling to their mother's belly and will move on to riding on their backs at 5 or 6 months. They start to be able to move around independently by the age of 2 and by 4-6 are weaned. As young chimps, they will still stay with their mothers for up to 9 years. Until then, the mother will play with her baby and teach them all the important skills needed for being a chimp.

Chimps are incredibly social creatures. They have intricate connections between the different members of their community, touching, cuddling, and sometimes fighting with each other. Grooming is an incredibly important part of chimp life. Not only is it important to stay clean and tidy, but it’s also a fantastic way to strengthen bonds, build alliances, and relax. Chimps can spend a few minutes and even up to a few hours grooming each other, maintaining friendly ties between the community. The important bonds between chimpanzees can also be seen when the grieve for their dead. Those who were closest to the deceased are visibly more upset and spend a lot more time in the process of mourning. Mothers will carry their dead babies around; others will groom their friend. This shows their diverse and complex emotions, and most importantly, their ability to love.

Chimpanzees are now endangered because of our actions. Because of major increases in human populations, miles and miles of their habitat is being destroyed, clearing space for city expansion, agriculture, roads, logging, and mining. This is making it harder for the chimps to survive, forcing them to live in smaller and smaller spaces and putting a major strain on food options. This issue over food, in particular, has led to human-chimpanzee conflict. In their desperation to find enough to eat, the chimps are forced to come to human settlements to steal food, mainly easy to grab things such as fruit, but when things are really tough, they have been known to take children. Families retaliate by killing the chimps to stop any other attacks. Chimps are also targeted by bushmeat hunters as they provide plenty of meat compared to other smaller animals. The hunters are also known to take the young as their pets or sell them on the illegal pet trade, a lifestyle that is never suitable for a wild animal. With DNA so similar to our own it is not surprising that chimpanzees are susceptible to many of the same diseases that we are. Since the 1980s, Ebola has been a major threat killing hundreds of thousands of chimpanzees.

Description
This 6-year-old Arctic Fox is very used to adapting to her environment. With a beautiful fluffy white coat to blend in with the snowy landscape and keep her toasty in winter, that transforms into a thinner and browner coat to fit perfectly into the summer months. But her environment is changing, and it’s changing fast. Her adaptations which worked so perfectly before are needing to adapt again and adapt quickly.

The beautiful Arctic fox may look delicate but it is incredibly hardy. It lives in one of the most inhospitable climates in the world- the Arctic- which spends its winter below freezing and its short summer just above. The fox has developed a thick white coat to perfectly suit its surroundings. Not only is it wonderfully warm with a lovely fluffy tail perfect for a blanket but it blends in perfectly with the snowy surroundings making it an excellent hunter. In the summer it sheds its thick coat for a brown/grey one that is perfect for blending in with the ice-free summer. Arctic Foxes are the only canid that has fur on the pads of their feet.
Even though they are exceptional hunters, sometimes the long winter months can be short on food, particularly their favourite cuisine of lemmings. To solve this problem, the crafty hunters follow larger predators to scavenge whatever they manage to find. To help them with their hunting endeavours, the Arctic Fox has developed a spectacular sense of hearing and smell. They can easily hear lemmings burrowing under 4-5 inches of snow and can smell a leftover carcass 10-40km away. Once they have found their prey under the snow they leap into the air, giving them a fantastic vantage to pierce through the snow, catching their prey unaware.

Arctic foxes live in very large dens, a system of tunnels that can cover 1000m²and has many entrances. If their main food source, the lemming, is abundant, the foxes can have litters as big as 25 kits, the largest of any dog, but are usually between 6-19. Arctic foxes are monogamous so both parents look after their young. The mother will feed the kits with her milk while the father will head out to hunt. The kits are completely dependent on their parents from summer to autumn, leaving the den for the first time when they are 14-15 weeks old and becoming sexually mature once they are a year old.

While the species as a whole is thriving, some populations are critically endangered; in Scandinavia and Medny Island in Russia. With the near extinction of wolves, the red fox became the apex predator, killing many foxes and their kits. They are also very susceptible to the populations of their prey. When lemming numbers drop, so too do fox numbers. Another major problem for the foxes is climate change. The Arctic is seeing rising temperatures at twice the rate of the rest of the world making huge changes to the habitat of the fox.

The elephant is symbolic on many levels. Elephants are one of the most iconic creatures on the planet, and also the largest. Its crushing weight shows physically the power of the natural world, yet also its importance. An elephant will always be worth more than a piece of machinery.

Yet it’s also a symbol of triumph. Elephants are one animal that has been massively impacted by the many wars that have raged through their homes. Their ivory tusks have always been a pull for poachers. But in war times, elephant poaching is even more rampant, and their tusks are sold off to buy resources to fuel the war effort. Now, the elephant is the victor. He has taken out the tank and created peace for us all.
