I gotta highlight 3!

1) The Jaguar Rescue Center

My wife, Katelyn, worked here for 2 months up until recently. When COVID hit, we decided to come back home. I know they were hurting for equipment before all this, but they're really struggling now. If you're interested in donating, check out this page.

2) The Sloth Conservation Foundation

We actually have an AMA going on about this! A friend and neighbor of ours in Costa Rica is the founder of this org. Go check out her post and ask a question!

And here's a handy link in case you want to help out!

3) Carolina Tiger Rescue

I know, I know... Tiger King! But yeah, clearly tigers need help from weirdos. Having been there myself and listened to the stories about how many tigers got to be there, I can vouch for Carolina Tiger Rescue. While they aren't trying to rehabilitate animals to release in the wild, I sincerely think they are doing great work with big cats who have been through some really awful situations.

If you're interested in supporting them, take a look here!
