Did you have a good Halloween?! We didn’t receive many trick or treaters at the adopt office, though those that did knock received a nice bowl of sweets in return for no trick! What we certainly weren’t giving out were carved pumpkin heads like the keepers were at the Howletts Wild Animal Park, near Canterbury.
To celebrate the launch of udopt we’re giving you the chance to win £500 for an animal charity of your choice. Simply join our e-newsletter and you’ll be entered into our prize draw to give a great Christmas gift for your favourite UK charity.
We thought it would be interesting to find out a bit more about the Aspinall Foundation charity, who are devoted to the conservation of endangered species across the globe.
An entire family of gorillas will be released back into the wild of Africa next year by the Aspinall Foundation. The family of eleven gorillas will be the first captive group to be released back into their natural habitat, along with a selection of gibbons, Javan langurs and two elephants.
We know that making a gift using udopt is the right choice, but in case you are still undecided and are heading for the more traditional gift or present option, we urge you to read this first.
Well it’s all kicking of at the Port Lympne Wild Animal Park, as the primate keepers got themselves ready for Halloween in a rather unusual way.
The Western lowland gorillas had a bit of a treat the other day, when the gardening team decked out their home with an edible garden.
Here’s a great chance for you to meet a very special lady in our lives. This is Tilly, and she is the 100th Sponsored Puppy by Guide Dogs for the Blind. Tilly is a beautiful Labrador who loves cuddles and being made a fuss of, as you will see in the video on our blog.
Keepers from the primate enclosures at the Howletts and Port Lympne Wild Animal Parks will be running 10 kilometres to help raise money for the Aspinall Foundation’s Back To The Wild Appeal.
Let's be friends
