Project Peril: Help Save the Siamese Crocodile
Help save the Siamese crocodile from extinction!
The Siamese crocodile was already thought to be extinct once; now, we risk losing it for good. In the 1990s, most scientists believed the Siamese crocodile was either close to extinct or already entirely gone. Then, in 2000, a Flora and Fauna International survey revealed that this crocodile species was still in existence despite the odds.
Now, we’ve got a second chance to save the Siamese crocodile. Though this species was recently rediscovered, they still are the most threatened crocodile in the world. There are only an estimated 500 to 1,000 mature Siamese crocodiles left today, and they have been pushed out of 99% of their former habitat. As they continue to lose the places they call home due to natural and human destruction, it’s vital that we step in NOW to save the Siamese crocodile before its too late.
That’s why this June, Greater Good Charities is sending their Global Discovery Expeditions program to study key ecosystems at the Sao La Nature Reserve in Vietnam. This region is a globally recognized key biodiversity area in the He province on a northern flank of mountains that are part of the Annamite Mountain chain. With the help of your donations, American and Vietnamese scientists will work together to propel conservation efforts. Together, we can protect this biodiverse region for endangered species like the Siamese crocodile.
This research is a vital step in the conservation of endangered species in Vietnam. Please give today before it’s too late.
Greater Good Charities has ultimate authority and discretion with regard to the distribution of its funds. All expenditures made are consistent with the exempt purposes of Greater Good Charities.
