Lyndal's Lifeline - St Tiggywinkles (2007x1)

Data emisji: Kwi 28, 2007

Relaxing at home, you watch elephants and zebras roam across your TV screen. Change channels, and a snake silently stalks its prey as you squirm on your sofa. Plus, they raise awareness of the importance of environmental protection. But now, a show on Animal Planet called Lyndal’s Lifeline is doing more. The show is saving wildlife with cold hard cash. With each episode, the show donates US$10,000 to an organization that is saving animals’ lives – possible even saving some from extinction. And every dollar counts when trying to undo the damage done. Sadly, the biggest threat to endangered animals usually comes from humans. Every day, up to 60 animals are admitted to St Tiggywinkles. The public's donations pay for new equipment that can be used to quickly diagnose disease in wild animals.
