WEST INDIAN WHIST;ING DUCK


Chaos, Catastrophe, Disaster and an ordinary little duck

You live in a world chock-a-block with news. Every day there seems to be a new biggest thing - storms more severe than we've seen in history, politics more polarised than ever before and economies at breaking point.
But floating silently behind all the chaos and clutter is the West Indian whistling duck (yes, it whistles). Far away from explosions, attacks or disasters this humble duck's habitat is being taken over by coastal development and invasive species. As a result, it’s going extinct – quietly.
The media haven't noticed, so most of the world won’t care.
But, we’re going to save this duck.
Leaving behind the hyperbole of the front page, we’re protecting 3,000 hectares of coastline - preserving it for some of the last surviving birds. This work isn’t glamorous, cosmic or headline-making but - with your support - it’s enough to save this humble little duck.
