Life for many primates is no monkey business! Help WWF save the world’s primates!

Hello, and thank you for taking up your time to read my blog about WWF and their efforts to save the world’s primates! I’m Linnea and I feel that we should take action in order to stop primate poachers, black markets and habitat loss before it’s too late! I hope that my blog inspires you to support WWF:

This is a brief story about one of WWF’s many acts in order to save primates; Lola is a baby Orang-utan who was taken from her mother at the young age of 3 months by illegal tradesmen. WWF found her struggling for her life in a mere 18×26 cm iron cage-that’s smaller than an A4 piece of paper! Eating and sleeping in her own urine, she was crawling with fleas and parasites, but luckily, WWF managed to save Lola from her future of suffering and abuse. However, other primates just like Lola are not as fortunate.

WWF do so much to help primates and I feel strongly they are worth our support because they are human’s closest living relatives, with up to 98% of our DNA that we have in our genes. This means that killing a primate is almost exactly as bad as ending a human’s life. Is this what we want? WWF help primates all around the world survive deforestation (which ends in habitat loss and lack of food) poaching, black market and the illegal keeping of them as pets.

 

 

Thank you so much again for reading my blog and I would very much like it if you could post me a response of your thoughts and I would especially appreciate it if you could answer the following questions and post your answer as feedback.
