Dear all,

After the death of a child in Kenya from ingesting Furadan, and with the US Environmental Protection Agency banning carbofuran in America, we feel that there is no justification for delaying banning it in Kenya.

Watch this video and share with your friends. Please support our campaign to save lions.

Thank you

    A powerful presentation with a very clear and compelling message. I’ve just posted this weblink to the RaptorConservation Listserver which has over 1000 members worldwide. Keep up the good work!

    We have shared the video with all of our contacts at YouTube and asked that they forward. We will also share with our Facebook Cause members, in our own online community, and if there are no objections will make this a news article in our website (and an article in our weekly E-Newsletter).

    We seek suggestions on how we can further assist. Seeing African lions classified as an Endangered Species is long-time personal desire of mine. I only hope that they can survive by the time that happens.

    Powerful video Paula. We must get this pesticide banned and taken completely off the shelves in Kenya. Kenya cannot afford to lose any more lions and other animals from this poison and certainly not any more innocent people.
