Kauri dieback Our magnificent Kauri is suffering. Kauri dieback is a major New Zealand issue. Microscopic spores attack the roots and trunks of Kauri tees which then damages the tissue that carry nutrients. There is no known cure, so when a tree is infected it dies. Forest and Bird are working to spread awareness about this environmental issue that is a massive threat to New Zealand's environment. A portion of the money from this drawing will be donated to

Recent years have shown an evident decline in wildlife numbers. One of the causes is poaching. Wildlife poaching is a major threat to endangered animals around the globe. A species is declared extinct after many years of not being spotted. It takes years to know whether a species has become extinct and track its decline. With poaching and other harmful factors such as global warming, it may be that more species are already gone that we don't know of yet. In the last 50 years, wildlife populations have declined by over 60 percent. IAPF is all about the protection of these wild animals in their natural habitats. Rangers wander the wilderness to protect animals from poachers. So far they have managed to protect over 6 million acres throughout Africa. A portion of the money from this drawing will be donated to IAPF, so we can help continue the protection of some of the most endangered species in the world. |
Rising Water Levels This issue needs urgent attention. Water levels are rising. The atmospheres temperature is heating up due to the carbon dioxide we are producing. This is causing ice to melt, leaving Antarctic animals such as penguins and polar bears without a liveable habitat. We have been given 11 years before irreversible damage has been done to the planet. Damage beyond our repair and we need to act now . WWF is all about the safety and conservation of the worlds wildlife. We need to give back and provide aid to the environment that we are currently destroying. A portion of the money from this drawing will be donated to WWF, to help animals in destroyed areas and help try to reverse some of the damage we have done. |
