The Wilderness Foundation launched the Forever Wild – Rhino Protection Initiative in May, 2011.
The Campaign aims to gather support from the public and various stakeholders to help fight against rhino poaching in South Africa and save the rhino from extinction in the wild. As an organisation, the Wilderness Foundation is involved in rhino protection activities on two main levels:
Save the Rhino Petition:
Firstly, it is gathering signatures on a petition through http://wildernessfoundation.co.za/savetherhinos/ which will be delivered to the US congress in early January in order to bring the situation to the attention of international governments. Without the intervention of government and the public, the rhino may be extinct in the next ten years. This petition has already received over 12,000 signatures!
The WF believes in the power of the wilderness to dissolve ethnic and economic inequalities and forge one path toward social and environmental sustainability.
