Hello everyone, my name is Sergi Picas and I'm currently an undergraduate student in Wildlife Sciences at the University of Georgia. I've always had an incredibly strong attachment to wildlife and nature, and seeing all of these species disappear in front of the worlds eyes is heartbreaking. Next May I will be attending a study abroad course in Botswana and South Africa. Africa is home to an incredible amount of wildlife diversity, among them are the Big 5 (Rhino, Elephant, Leopard, Lion and Buffalo). These animals are being poached and trafficked with at such a high rate that we might lose them entirely within a couple decades. I've taken this issue quite personally and want to dedicate my life to this cause.  My mission is to act on this issue, to raise awareness and help protect these magical animals against poachers. For that I need your help, we must act on this problem immediately, so please help me live this dream of saving the planets animals!
