The Nurture Nature Campaign is happy to celebrate World Wildlife Day this year! Especially given the theme “Partnerships for Wildlife Conservation,” we couldn’t do what we do without our NGO coalition of 13 local and regional NGO’s.

This year we’re participating in a few different events to honour World Wildlife Day. Partnering with The Cropper Foundation on Sunday 5th at 2 pm for a panel discussion and then The Center for Biosecurity Studies (UWI Cave Hill) on Monday 6th at 12 pm for a webinar.

The “Nurturing the Wild” Photography Competition of 2022 sought to tell the many stories of T&T’s wildlife through the lens of local photographers. It was a collaborative production brought to you by the Nurture Nature Campaign, Trinidad and Tobago Photographic Society, and Faraaz Abdool. The winners were announced on June 5th in celebration of World Environment Day.

Approximately one-in-six homes keep wild animals in Trinidad and Tobago. Unfortunately, by their very nature, wild animals are very difficult to keep healthy and happy in human homes, and many die due to poor care.

In response, the Nurture Nature Campaign has developed a series of help guides for households that already possess captive wild animals.Our “At-Risk Animal Help Guide” series covers six different species and species groups: Amazon Parrots, Boas, Macaws, Red-eared Sliders, Red-tailed Squirrels, and Tortoises.

These guides have been co-developed with the Trinidad and Tobago Veterinary Association (TTVA), the Veterinary Students’ Association of Trinidad and Tobago (VSATT), and the UWI Exotics Club.
