COVID-19 is just one example of a succession of pathogens infecting people that have come from commercial trade of wild animals for consumption. From Ebola to MERS, most infectious diseases trace back to animal-human transmission.
By ending the commercial consumption of wildlife and the urban bushmeat trade WildAid is working to prevent the next outbreak. Will you join us?

About WildAid
WildAid is a non-profit organization with a mission to protect wildlife from illegal trade and other imminent threats. While most wildlife conservation groups focus on protecting animals from poaching, WildAid primarily works to reduce global consumption of wildlife products such as elephant ivory, rhino horn and shark fin soup. With an unrivaled portfolio of celebrity ambassadors and a global network of media partners, WildAid leverages more than $308 million in annual pro-bono media support with a simple message: When the Buying Stops, the Killing Can Too.
