Your support will enable us to carry out urgently needed research and implement the conservation measures needed to ensure the survival of the world's EDGE species
Mammals on the EDGE
EDGE species are threatened primarily by the destruction of habitats they depend on, but also from direct persecution or competition with introduced species, such as rats and domestic livestock.
Often, we simply do not know enough about a species to address the threats directly and implement appropriate conservation measures.
There is still time to save the world’s EDGE species
The world’s most evolutionarily distinct species are also some of the most threatened. With your support we can implement the research and conservation actions necessary to save these remarkable animals.
