Welcome to Voices for
Urban Wildlife

Voices for Urban Wildlife is a NYC based non-profit working  with schools and communities to promote awareness and protection of urban wildlife.

 

Urban wildlife is all around us

But it is in trouble and needs our help. 

​

 

​

​

What is urban wildlife ?

 

They are the life we barely notice but that are here amongst us:

The mammals and birds. The reptiles and amphibians, The fish and marine life.

The insects and beneficial micro-organisms.

All together they keep our life-sustaining ecosystems working for us

as they go about their daily business, and as we go about ours.

​

But as cities and suburbs become more densely populated

we displace wildlife, destroy their homes,

eliminate their natural food sources, and completely transform their habitat

to  accommodate our need for additional space.

​

We can and must do better. 

Together we can create a more humane and  compassionate world 

for people, wildlife, and our beautiful living planet. 

​
