Join Mr Gorilla, Bill Oddie and hundreds of people dressed as gorillas to run, jog or walk 8km though the City of London in the 15th annual Great Gorilla Run to help save a species on the edge of extinction.
Now in its 15th year, this incredible event has raised well over £2 million for gorilla conservation and poverty reduction projects in central Africa.

A few photos which I personally took over various trips I have made to the USA in different years. You can click on any of the images to see a larger version if you wish.
Places like these should never be handed over by Trump and co. to organisations who see them only for physical change and quick money making above anything else.
Please look long and hard at the photos – I see them for the natural beauty that they have which is presented to me – homes to wolves, coyotes and so many other plants and animals that deserve our help and protection.
The USA must welcome visitors to such places and the beauty that they hold, and not let a few madmen destroy these places forever in order to make a quick buck. The good folk of America need to make a stand against these proposed actions; for once it is gone, it can never be replaced.

Class of 2017: Our Summer Studentships
We are delighted to announce that this year we will be funding15 Summer Studentships to support young scientists in laboratories across the country.
The students will be conducting cutting-edge, animal free research into a range of diseases from prostate cancer to Parkinson’s disease, using a wide range of techniques that include cell culture, gene editing and computational modelling.
This work will help to replace animals such as mice, rabbits and pigs, and help embed the importance of animal free research in the minds of young scientists.
You will be able to follow their progress on our Facebook page.
If you would like to help fund more animal free research, please make a donationtoday.

Latest ‘fur news’ from Mark and the crew at ‘Respect for Animals’, Nottingham, England.
———————————————————–
Probably unlikely, but we are taking measures in advance:
This year nearly 80,000 seal pups, less than 3 months old, were brutally clubbed or shot for their fur. Worryingly in the UK, there is a risk that seal product imports could resume once we leave the EU.
Respect for Animals is asking the government to guarantee that this import ban will remain in force.
Top academics and campaigners from around the world are descending on Oxford from 23-26 July to discuss the ethics of the fur trade.
Sponsored by the Respect for Animals Educational trust, it will result in a new up to date and authoritative report intended to transform the debate around wearing fur.
Germany’s last fur farm will close down with a new Bill enforcing stricter regulations and effectively make fur farming of mink non-viable for farmers.
Fantastisch!
Thank you Germany.
Fur Farming In Europe
The fur farming ban has been effective in the UK for over 15 years now.
We were proud to have led that campaign and many of you helped make it possible. today, we use our experience and campaigning record to support campaigns in countries around the world where similar bans are being proposed and who look to the UK as an example to be followed.
It takes up to 40 dumb animals to make a fur coat
– BUT ONLY ONE TO WEAR IT !
Fur is for animals.
Thank you for your support.
Mark Glover, Director
