We're not ones to force petitions down anyone's throat, but its become clear that there is certainly strength in numbers:

The recent cancellation of a pipeline that would have cut through Amur Leopard habitat in Russia was achieved through people power - so remember, your voice can make a difference.

So here are a number of petitions focussed particularly on the welfare of the family of leopards and their big cat cousins. Would appreciate it if you could find the time to read through their goals, and add your names to the lists if you feel motivated to do so. Many thanks:

SAVE THE AMUR LEOPARDS

SAVE THE LEOPARDS OF PAKISTAN

SUPPORT THE SIACHEN PEACE PARK INITIATIVE (Snow Leopards)

PROTECT ENDANGERED GREAT CATS AND RARE CANIDS


Panthera tigris

by Charith P. (2 comments | 0 discussions) — "Sal blossoms lie soft and moist under my feet like a fragrant carpet. Mists drift wraith-like through the trees pulled by unseen hands, and the rain plays a gentle refrain on the leaves. A kind of sadness fills the air and seeps into my soul. ... more »
