EFA COTM TREASURY: At the Water's Edge & DEFENDERS OF WiLDLiFE TAKE ACTiON

Curated by Rebecca from KneeDeepOriginals
In support of September's COTM: Defenders of Wildlife

"Team EFA, also known as Artists Helping Animals, is supporting Defenders of Wildlife during the month of September. Each of these shops is donating a percentage of their sales to benefit the causes of this organization.

One of these causes is the Gulf Oil Spill. DOW is working with state and federal agencies to ensure that plans are in place to help the region's wildlife, marshlands, parks and wildlife refuges recover, and to help monitor the ongoing impacts of the disaster."

To support Defenders of Wildlife's
work on the Gulf Oil Disaster
and specifically loggerhead turtles,
please sign this petition:

Take Action for Loggerhead Sea Turtles

"Loggerhead sea turtles were in trouble before the Gulf oil spill disaster. The number of nesting females has declined by 50 percent in the past decade, leading the National Marine Fisheries Service to consider reclassifying loggerheads from threatened to endangered.

Now these turtles need our help even more. The world’s second-largest loggerhead nesting area is on the beaches of the southeastern United States -- some of the areas most threatened by the Gulf oil tragedy.

Exposure to oil can cause skin loss, poisoning, drowning and death… which is why we need every available tool to help save the lives of individual loggerheads and save this species from extinction. "
