1,000 OPERATIONS! A major milestone for Focused Conservation. Operation Gold, conducted by the Uganda Wildlife Crime Unit, marked the 1,000th law enforcement operation conducted by a wildlife crime unit associated with Focused Conservation since 2018. focusedconservation.org/2026…

The effects of wildlife trafficking run deep. For Tabo, being taken from the wild meant injuries from wire restraints, a fractured wrist and finger, poor bone growth requiring X-rays and continued monitoring. The trafficking ends. The recovery begins. gofundme.com/f/saved-from-tr…

It’s been 2 weeks since the Nigeria Customs Service rescued Maraya and 47 other live animals from traffickers. @FocusedConserve with @AspinallCharity and @TheLastAnimals have launched a GoFundMe to help provide the emergency care they urgently need. gofundme.com/f/saved-from-tr…
