DSWF urgently needs funds to help save critically endangered mammals in the wild, and their habitats. Please give all you can. We pride ourselves on being "lean on administration" which means any money you donate to DSWF goes to helping wildlife rather than paying for expensive offices. In fact if you make a donation to a specific project we guarantee that 100% of that donation goes direct to the field - so you know your money really is going to make a difference.

How your money is spent:

• £10 a day feeds and cares for one of our baby elephants in Zambia
• £25 covers fuel costs for a five day anti-poaching patrol
• £50 trains and equips a forest office in India
• £100 pays a wildlife scout's monthly salary
• £250 covers monthly anti-poaching costs in the Lower Zambezi
• £350 buys a life saving radio collar for an African Painted hunting dog

Recent achievements include:

• a recent tiger appeal actually postponed the building of a proposed pipeline that was threatening the Amur tiger (formerly known as Siberian tiger)'s habitat.
• uncovering an ivory carving cartel in Zambia, seizing thousands of pounds of ivory and arresting eleven poachers
• reducing poaching in the Russian Far East, allowing Amur tiger (formerly known as Siberian tiger) numbers to increase from an all time low of 100 to over 400
• purchasing farmland adjoining one of South Africa's National Parks, home to the last 800 surviving Mountain Zebra, extending the park by over 200%
• our Asian Conservation Awareness Programme message, "When the Buying Stops, The Killing Can Too", has reached well over 40 million homes across Asia with the full support of film idol Jackie Chan
• on-going funding of community development programmes in Namibia's spectacular desert wilderness, home to the rare desert elephant and last truly wild population of black rhino in Africa.
• funding undercover operations of Africa's first Task Force of enforcement officers working across borders.
