Why Adopt Maple?

Pygmy hippos, like Maple, are icons of the African rainforest. However, they are endangered due to habitat loss and poaching, with fewer than 3,000 left in the wild. Habitat loss does more than just reduce the availability of resources – it also brings pygmy hippos closer to the crossfire of human conflicts. By symbolically adopting Maple today, your support will help to safeguard the future of species like the pygmy hippos for future generations.
