Peoples Trust for Endangered Species

PTES looks to the future with the hope of preserving wildlife for the future generations to enjoy. We fund scientific research in the UK and abroad, purchase threatened land, commision surveys and reports and hold symposia and conferences.


Current opportunity

Our planet is changing. The climate and biodiversity are in crisis. We can turn the tide, but to do so, we need to keep an eye on wildlife and the natural habitats that support it. We’re looking for volunteers to join a citizen science project recording wild mammals in the green spaces of our towns and cities. Whether a squirrel or fox, wood mouse or bat, every sighting is important and goes to building a bigger picture of how wildlife is faring. The online survey provides information on how to recognise the different species on our doorstep, and is part of an active conservation effort.
