Giraffe Centre, Nairobi, Kenya
The African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Kenya (A.F.E.W. Kenya) also known as the Giraffe Centre is a non-governmental, non-profit making organization, which was founded by Betty and Jock Leslie-Melville in 1979. This was in a bid to save the endangered Rothschild Giraffe, which had lost its natural habitat in Western Kenya to agriculture and there were only 130 left in the wild. Funds were raised and 4 herds of the Rothschild giraffes were moved to 4 parks namely Lake Nakuru National Park, Mwea Game Reserve, Ruma National Park and Nasalot Game Reserve.
End of the Big 5

The Client: Save the Rhino
The Agency: Stick
The Brief: Highlight the seriousness of the current carnage and show what the eventual outcome of the continued slaughter might turn out to be.
Creative Solution: Create intriguing visuals that suggest that when the rhinos have all gone nothing that we can ever do will bring them back. The Big 5 might soon be something of the past. The work was done pro-bono and is running in supportive media including the inflight magazine of Mango.
Creative Team: Jono Wolberg (Art Director), Mike Ellman-Brown (Copywriter & CD ) and Darryl Cowling (Creative Director)
Worried
Image by Sharon Drummond
"The main threat of orangutans today is loss of habitat. Forest habitat is being rapidly destroyed by conversion to agriculture, both by large commercial plantations and smaller subsistence farms, illegal logging, gold mining, and in particular palm oil plantations. At the same time, humans are selectively killing adult females in order to obtain live juveniles for the animal pet trade. Status: Critically Endangered"
