Target: His Excellency Dr. Abiy Ahmed Ali, Prime Minister of Ethiopia
Goal: Advocate for the protection of the critically endangered African wild ass from hunting and habitat loss.
The African wild ass is a critically endangered species found in the deserts of Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Somalia. The population of African wild asses has significantly declined due to habitat loss, poaching, and hunting. The animal is an essential part of the ecosystem, and its loss will have serious consequences for the biodiversity and balance of the ecosystem.
The African wild ass is threatened with extinction, with only a few hundred individuals remaining in the wild. The main reason for this decline is habitat loss, with the animal’s habitat being threatened by human encroachment, agriculture, and infrastructure development. Poaching and hunting for meat and sport have also contributed to the decline of the African wild ass.
Immediate action must be taken to protect the African wild ass from extinction, save their habitat and prevent hunting and poaching. Sign below and demand the government of Ethiopia take a leading role in this effort and work with international conservation organizations to preserve this critically endangered species.
