You can help save a species in 2020

It’s life or death for the Tristan albatross
Your generous help today can stop an extinction emergency on Gough Island, a UK Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic. Defenceless seabirds are being attacked by invasive non-native mice. See for yourself in the video. But all is not lost.
Decisive action to remove every mouse from Gough can save the Tristan albatross and the lives of over 2 million other seabird chicks a year.
All we need now is your support for one of our most ambitious extinction prevention projects. Every £30 you give makes 200 square metres of land safe from invasive mice, helping to restore one of the world’s most important seabird islands.

Our most ambitious extinction prevention project
The RSPB’s Gough team includes world leading island restoration experts who have delivered similar successful projects, including on South Georgia near the Falklands, and Macquarie Island off Tasmania.
Closer to home, on Lundy Island the number of seabirds has trebled since the RSPB and our partners helped remove rodents. With your help, we can do something similar on Gough Island – helping millions of chicks survive each year.
Donate today and in just months, this island could be transformed into a seabird paradise again, with its World Heritage Site status protected. And the Tristan albatross will recover and thrive.


IT'S NOW OR NEVER
Help stop an extinction
BREAKING NEWS
Given the coronavirus pandemic and increasing global travel restrictions, it has become impossible to complete the Gough Island restoration operation this season.
The loss of another season's chicks to mouse predation is devastating to us all. We remain committed to our mission to restore Gough as a seabird paradise, and our intention is to return in 2021.
All donations received will go straight to the Gough Island restoration operation and are needed - now more than ever - to help us get back to finish the job.
Thank you for your support and understanding.
