” The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation (DSWF) supports a range of innovative and far-reaching longterm projects to save tigers, elephants, rhinos and other critically endangered mammals in the wild, throughout Africa and Asia. With your support DSWF: • sends undercover agents into the field to investigate illegal wildlife crime • trains and supplies anti-poaching patrols • funds our vital community outreach programmes • persuades millions of people worldwide to stop buying wildlife products • and puts countless other critically important projects into action. “Man has contributed so much to the destruction of wildlife habitats and the wholesale slaughter of some the world’s most remarkable wildlife. If we are to ensure the survival of rare and beautiful species we must not relax our efforts for one second. With just 0.5% of the £7 billion donated annually to UK based charities going to animal causes, and even less to core conservation projects, we need your support TODAY… tomorrow will be too late!” Melanie Shepherd For further information and how you can help save wildlife, please contact: 61 Smithbrook Kilns, Cranleigh, Surrey, GU6 8JJ, UK Tel: 01483 272323 Fax: 01483 272427 Mail-order Tel: 01483 267924 E-mail: dswf@davidshepherd.org Web: www.davidshepherd.org “ Free DSWF membership for a year will be given to everyone who books a holiday. Iknow it is a compliment being known as ‘the chap who paints elephants’ but I am a landscape painter. It just happens that from time to time an elephant somehow gets into the composition! As a wildlife artist, in particular, I feel it is as essential to study the background as much as the animal itself. I have been to 29 national parks throughout Africa and Asia during my long life and I am often asked which is my favourite – it’s usually the last one I visited! But Zambia’s Luangwa Valley is near the top of the list. Once known as ‘the Valley of the Elephants’, it has over time seen its fair share of poaching. But as many readers will know, the Luangwa is still a top wildlife destination and it continues to inspire my paintings. Working with companies such as Wildlife Worldwide proves that sustainable tourism can play a vital role in wildlife conservation, not only in saving endangered species, but protecting the wilderness in which they survive and benefiting the local communities which share their environment. David Shepherd Raincoast Conservation Foundation is a non-profit research and public education organization. Raincoast works in partnership with scientists, First Nations, local communities, government and non-governmental organizations to build support for decisions that protect marine and rainforest habitat on British Columbia’s central and north coast, a vast network of temperate rainforest also known as the Great Bear Rainforest. Raincoast has a field station and a full time research vessel located in the Great Bear Rainforest which allows them to conduct year-round research and be an active part of local communities. In September 2007 Raincoast played an important role at our annual Festival of Wildlife which took place at King Pacific Lodge, located on the stunningly beautiful Princess Royal Island, home to the rare white Spirit Bear. Raincoast’s executive director Chris Genovali and wolf project coordinator Dr. Chris Darimont gave presentations on the ecology, wildlife research and conservation issues pertaining to the Great Bear Rainforest. They also accompanied the Festival participants on their excursions to view the wide array of wildlife that inhabits the terrestrial and marine ecosystems of the forest. And the viewing was spectacular! Festival participants saw Spirit Bears, Black Bears, Wolves, Brown Bears, Humpback, and Orca Whales and the autumn wild salmon migration (amongst other things!). The money we raised for Raincoast at the Festival and the emerging collaborations that were spawned from the event are certain to have significant benefit for furthering conservation in the Great Bear Rainforest. We look forward to developing our relationship with Raincoast over the coming years. 12 F O R R E S E R V A T I O N S C A L L U S O N 0845 130 6982 www.raincoast.org David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation
