Remote Camera Trap

Sponsor a camera trap for

R3600 / £185

Remote camera traps are needed for both our pangolin rehabilitation and release project.

These remote cameras are used to for monitoring released pregnant pangolin burrows for signs of babies.

Pangolin Tracking Devices

Sponsorship options starting from

R970 / £48

These devices are imperative to the monitoring of the successful release of a rescued and rehabilitated pangolin.

The sooner a rescued pangolin can get back to a normal routine of foraging for food and sleeping in a burrow without constant human interference the better it is for their recovery, so once a pangolin has recovered and is feeding well it enters the "soft release" stage of its rehabilitation.

Soft release is when a pangolin is released in an safe area with tracking devices that allow its movements to be tracked remotely by GPS, and VHF so the individual can be located for health checks.

Pangolin Transport or Sleeping Box

Sponsor a Transport box for

R850 / £35

Sponsor a sleeping box for

R1,700 / £70

These specialised boxes are used to comfortably hold and house pangolins that have been rescued from the illegal wildlife trade and transport them between veterinary health checks, treatment, rehabilitation and feeding areas.

They may not look like much, but the wooden walls must be thick enough that the pangolin can't break through it. (Their claws are built for digging ground as hard as cement) The box must also be spacious enough that the pangolin can move freely for its comfort, whilst providing the right amount of ventilation and shelter.

Project Equipment

All of our projects suffer from the same on-going phenomenon as all other non-profit organisations, a forever changing list of needs of equipment and materials. Project equipment ranges from everything to uniform items as simple as a couple of pairs of socks, all the way to computer equipment, like laptops or printers.

As our projects needs are continuously changing so is our project equipment list, so if you would like to sponsor the purchase of, or donate second hand equipment you are no longer using to one of our projects contact us via the button below and we can send you an update list via email, or help you get your donation where it needs to be.
