lost species: by the numbers

From the dark depths of the ocean to the bottom of running freshwater rivers, from the lush jungles of the tropics, to the seemingly barren wastelands of the desert, the Search for Lost Species is exploring some of the most remote and uncharted wild places on Earth. We are searching in some of the planet’s forgotten biodiversity-rich places, providing opportunities for Re:wild to do what it does best: work with partners on the ground to protect species across habitats.
