I just wanted to tell those of you who have donated so far to help us during this 2.6 Challenge that we are deeply appreciative of your support. And I wanted to share with all of you some of the wonderful support messages that we have received along with your donations:

“Let’s stop this barbaric practice!”
“I love your energy. Thanks for helping those beautiful big cats!”
“We need to look after the king of jungle and all big cats!”
“Thanks for saving those who cannot speak for themselves.”
“Please help Donate towards wildlife lions in danger. I have..”
“Keep up the pressure.”
“Hope to get the law passed as soon as possible.”
“I like lions, please save them. Please keep up the good work”
“Keep roaring!”
“Thanks for all you do for lions and for keeping them in peoples minds at this time. My daughters and I will be a- weemaway- ing away on the 26th!”
“Lions and every animal in this world needs protection from the human race.”
“Thank you for all you do.”
“In support of LionAid”
“Still behind you!”
“Having worked as a volunteer on lion research/conservation project, and other similar programmes in Africa, I would encourage others to support this iconic animal's future.”
“Its amazing we can still all virtually fundraise for our amazing planet and these big cats, if we all just give a little we can help continue to keep them safe and healthy.”

Your messages are wonderful and it is very heart-warming to see the support you are showing for “our amazing planet and these big cats! And YES, we also will be “a- weemaway- ing away on the 26th”.

And a thought for the day: If all the people who have signed this petition were to send us a donation, however small, to help our work with saving lions and stopping the practice of trophy hunting, we would have enough funds to begin much of the essential field work in the lion range States, making a huge difference to the future of our wonderful, iconic lion populations AND bring enough pressure to bear on all our politicians to ban lion trophy imports.

So please join in this 2.6 Challenge and either donate £26 (or whatever you can afford! Or set up a fundraising page for your challenge.
