Thrigby Conservation Fund

Thrigby Conservation Fund

In recent years several generous donations called for the establishment of a fund to hold and disburse money given for the furtherance of conservation work supported by Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens.  This cumulative generosity supports the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust and its work with the Pygmy Hog in Nepal, the Red Panda via Marwell Zoo, the Amur Leopard via the Tigris Foundation, and Zoo Outreach of India.

Thrigby Hall Wildlife Garden is a "Protector" of the Captive Breeding Group of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.  This vigorous organisation identifies and co-ordinates the efforts to breed seriously endangered species on a global basis. The fund is helping to support Shelagh Rosenthal in her study of Owston's Palm Civet in Vietnam.

Adoption Scheme

Any animal or tree can be adopted and the adoption recorded by a plaque.  All adoption monies go to the Thrigby Conservation Fund.  The scheme has helped the Gardens to pursue additional conservation work that might not otherwise have been possible.  The spontaneous generosity of some people has been gratifying and a source of encouragement to the staff.  Both the Thrigby Conservation Fund and the Adoption Scheme are administered free of any charges.

If you wish to participate, you can now download and print-off the Adoption Request Form.
