Species Safeguarding

The last twenty years have witnessed unprecedented changes in our biodiversity and environment on our shared planet, leading to the world losing over 10,000 species annually.

Now more than ever, wildlife sanctuaries like Senda Verde are vital to ensure the ongoing survival of many of the world’s most vulnerable species and their habitats; and inspiring young conservationists.

The Day May Break - Chapter Two

World-renowned photographer Nick Brandt spent weeks at Senda Verde, capturing the profound bond between rescued animals and people displaced by climate chaos. His work exposes the devastating impact of environmental destruction—on both the most vulnerable communities and the natural world. These images are raw, tender, and unforgettable, revealing resilience in the face of loss.

This is more than photography. This is a call to witness, to feel, and to act.

A Hauntingly Beautiful Testament to Survival

“These animals and people are the silent witnesses of a planet in crisis.” —Nick Brandt

“There may be days when we can’t help an animal in need, but the day will never come that we won’t try”.
