Wendy wishes to raise awareness and money for the plight of endangered species. Big cats, primates, dolphins, bears, birds, sea creatures: our eco systems are under severe threat from habitat loss, climate change, pollution, infection and natural disasters, and combined with hunting, logging, mining and crop development, this may be the last generation to have the opportunity to save them and protect the delicate ecological balances upon which our planet and its species depend. 

Those who support a charity describe feelings of increased fulfilment, happiness and wellbeing. Lightworkers are those that try to make the world a better place! Wendy has donated the royalties of her book 'The Lightworkers Circle Guide' to the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust.

The Aye-Aye (seen right) inspired the film, ET. It is an incredible primate from the island of Madagascar, an island with many endangered species, such as lemurs, bats, cats, rats and shrews. 80% of their forest habitat is gone.

Sonar sound wave technology was developed from animals with echo location, such as bats, whales, dolphins and shrews. The Livingstone Fruit Bat (seen above left) is one of the largest bats in the world. Its species habitat on the Comoros Islands is seriously under threat.  The Urangutan (here shown left) shares 97% of its DNA with us humans. We have a common ancestor which lived 14 million years ago. Today, very few Urangutans remain in the wild. This blue frog might be the last of its kind to live in the wild. The Radiated Tortoise is often illegally trafficked for sale in the West, as is the Wrinkled Hornbill (all seen below).
