Story

My Mammoth Mission continues! 

After the success of My Mammoth Year in 2019 I have decided to continue my fundraising for Chester Zoo's Never Forget Campaign. It will involve allsorts: challenges, events and online content.To keep up to date, follow me on Instagram and Facebook @mymammothmission. 

The Never Forget campaign aims to raise funding to support research into the elephant endotheliotropic herpes virus (EEHV). EEHV typically strikes young Asian elephants during the weaning phase and can be fatal. It affects both wild and zoo elephant populations. Tragically, Chester zoo has lost elephant calves to this deadly virus. Lots is still unknown about EEHV and how to treat it, so more research is vitally important, with the eventual aim to develop a vaccine. For more information visit: www.chesterzoo.org/support-us/eehv

As an elephant keeper at Chester zoo EEHV is never far from my thoughts. Please help to make a difference and secure a future for these truly awesome creatures. Every penny really does count!
