Learn About Animals

There have been many positive developments in recent years related to the treatment and conservation of animals around the world. According to the World Wildlife Fund, conservation efforts have led to an increase in the populations of many threatened species, including pandas, tigers, and gorillas. In addition, many countries have taken steps to improve animal welfare, including through legislation and policy reforms aimed at protecting animals from cruelty and abuse. There has also been growing recognition of the importance of animal rights and the need to reduce the impact of human activities on animal habitats and ecosystems. Many individuals and organizations are working to promote more sustainable and humane practices in agriculture, wildlife management, and other areas that affect animals. While there is still much work to be done to address the many challenges facing animals worldwide, these positive developments demonstrate the potential for continued progress in promoting the well-being and conservation of animals.

Kids Saving the Rainforest

Our mission is to protect the diverse wildlife of flora and fauna in Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast with our conservation projects which include KSTR’s wildlife rescue center where we rescue, rehabilitate and release injured, sick and orphaned animals back to the wild. Animals that can never be released because they were either raised in captivity as illegal pets and became reliant on humans for food or permanently injured or disabled are cared for in KSTR’s wildlife sanctuary. KSTR also works to minimize the causes of why animals need to be rescued with their education program, reforestation project and wildlife bridges project. We implement these projects to protect the wildlife in the community by mitigating the major threats of wildlife in the region.
