๐ฟ๐พ Our natural world and its wildlife depend upon storytelling. As Sir David Attenborough once said, “No one will protect what they don’t care about; and no one will care about what they have never experienced.” Sharing the studies and stories of wildlife and nature is a vital part of inviting those outside of the conservation world to experience the moments of wonder and inspiration that continue to move us to protect it.
At the beginning of September, Kate on Conservation launched The Wildlife Blogger Crowd; a growing community of nature and wildlife bloggers and storytellers from across the globe, supporting one another in sharing posts, ideas, and messages — to help spread awareness of causes and passion for wildlife far and wide. Four months on, they have featured 100 incredible storytellers — all of which are doing amazing work, and certainly deserve a space to be showcased .
One such blogger is Abi Mustard, who runs A Wild Blog. Abi is a keen birder and naturalist who has always been enthusiastic about being immersed in the wonderful great outdoors. She recently discovered she enjoyed writing, so she decided to begin her own blog, where she shares any thoughts, moments or experiences of the natural world .
Another blogger making a difference is Abdoul Mizerero, who runs Wildlife Conservation and Environment Protection around Virunga. Abdoul has committed himself to the crucial but dangerous work of protecting the wildlife of protected areas in Democratic Republic of the Congo. He runs conservation projects for building plant nurseries in communities around Virunga National Park. In 2014 Abdoul Mizerero founded Wildlife Conservation and Environment Protection around Virunga (WCEPVi) .
Alicia Hayden is another blogger worth following. She is a young wildlife photographer and artist from North Yorkshire, currently studying Biological Sciences at Oxford University. Her website contains a blog about new projects she’s been working on, and her Instagram showcases her new pieces of artwork, photography, film, and animation, alongside fun facts and ways to help nature .
These are just a few examples of the many talented bloggers out there who are working hard to spread awareness about wildlife conservation. We encourage you to check out their work and support their efforts.
Join us in our mission to spread awareness and passion for wildlife far and wide. #Wildlife #Conservation #Storytelling ๐พ๐ฟ
