Caquetá Titi Monkeys have a distinctive song and they purr like a kitten they form monogamous partnerships. Discovered relatively recently in 2010, these beautiful and fascinating monkeys are now critically endangered due to the massive deforestation that is occurring in Colombia for palm oil and other commodities. It is believed that fewer than 100 individuals Caquetá Titi Monkeys are left in the wild and fewer than 50 mature individuals. The habitat of the Caquetá Titi Monkeys is in an advanced state of fragmentation caused by extensive cattle ranching and illegal crop cultivation.

Western Red Colobus Piliocolobus badius
The Western Red Colobus Piliocolobus badius is one of West Africa’s most #endangered #primates, facing an escalating crisis of habitat loss and overhunting. Once abundant in mature forests across the region, they have been driven to the brink of #extinction by rampant deforestation for charcoal, palm oil and mining and the increasing demand for #bushmeat. Widespread clearing of forests for industrial #palmoil plantations, #mining, and #timber has fragmented their habitat, isolating populations and making them more vulnerable to #poaching. Without urgent intervention, their future remains uncertain. Help them every time you shop and be #vegan #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife
Pygmy Hippopotamus Choeropsis liberiensis

White-thighed Colobus Colobus vellerosus
The White-thighed Colobus (Colobus vellerosus), also known as the Ursine Colobus or Geoffroy’s Black-and-White Colobus, is a striking primate of West Africa and is currently listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List. Their numbers have plummeted by over 80% in just three generations due to rampant deforestation driven by logging, agriculture, and expanding palm oil plantations. Intense bushmeat hunting and weakening traditional taboos have further accelerated their decline. With fewer than 1,500 individuals thought to remain in the wild, urgent action is needed to save them. Use your wallet as a weapon—boycott products that contain palm oil and support ethical, indigenous-led conservation. BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife #Vegan #BoycottMeat
Roloway Monkey Cercopithecus roloway
The Roloway Monkey is one of West Africa’s rarest primates, instantly recognisable by their elegant white beard and striking brow band. Once common in the lush rainforests of Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire, the Roloway Monkey now survives only in isolated pockets of old-growth forest. The Roloway Monkey’s world is shrinking rapidly—palm oil, cocoa, and logging companies clear the last ancient trees, while hunters target the Roloway Monkey for bushmeat. The air is thick with the scent of damp earth and the distant echo of chainsaws. With fewer than 2,000 Roloway Monkeys left, their future hangs by a thread. Stand with indigenous communities defending the last forests. Use your wallet as a weapon. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife #Vegan
Miss Waldron’s Red Colobus Piliocolobus waldroni
xMiss Waldron’s Red Colobus, a secretive old world primate sport chestnut, black, and white white fur that surrounds their expressive faces. They live in the dense canopies of West Africa’s dwindling forests. Their story is one of ever-increasing fragility, on the edge of survival. Sightings of these magnificent primates have faded away since 1978. The last evidence, a skin, emerged in 2002.
These monkey species have been driven towards the extinction by palm oil, cocoa, and rubber plantations along with hunting for bushmeat. Their calls, once a common cacophony are now nearly permanently silenced. Miss Waldron’s Red Colobus serve as a living warning for forest health. They disappear before most other mammals wherever the forests fall. Support indigenous sovereignty and safeguarding of ecosystems—use your wallet as a weapon and #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife.
Bearded Pig Sus barbatus
Bearded Pigs have hair which grows along their lower jaws that resembles a beard – giving them their distinctive whiskery appearance and their name. The Bearded Pig is an integral part of Southeast Asia’s tropical ecosystems, known for their unique appearance and critical role as seed dipersers in forest health. They are the only pig species known to migrate, moving in synchrony with fruiting seasons. However, they face mounting threats from habitat loss for palm oil and timber, along with illegal hunting, and disease.

Tonkin Black Crested Gibbon Nomascus concolor ssp. concolor
The Tonkin Black Crested #Gibbon of the genus Nomascus are also known as the Indochinese black-crested gibbon. They are critically endangered #primates native to the misty mountain forests of northern #Vietnam, southern #China, and parts of #Laos.

Wild Water Buffalo Bubalus arnee
Massive, muscular, and critically under threat, the Wild Water Buffalo Bubalus arnee is the endangered ancestor of all domestic buffalo breeds. Once roaming vast swathes of South and Southeast Asia, fewer than 4,000 individual buffaloes remain today, scattered across shrinking habitats in India, Nepal, Cambodia, and a handful of neighbouring nations. Their decline is driven by interbreeding with domestic buffalo species, habitat destruction from farming and palm oil plantations, hunting, and disease transmission from livestock. This ancient grazer of flooded grasslands and braided rivers is vanishing before our eyes. Speak out for them and support indigenous-led efforts to restore their ecosystems. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife

Sipora Flying Squirrel Hylopetes sipora
On the small, forested island of #Sipora, #Indonesia the Sipora flying #squirrel Hylopetes sipora drifts silently between ancient trees. This rare squirrel is found nowhere else on earth. At night, the Sipora flying squirrel emerges from the hollows of towering trees, their large eyes scanning the dim canopy. With a sudden leap, they unfold their patagium—a membrane stretching from wrist to ankle—and glide effortlessly through the air, landing on a distant branch with barely a sound. The forests of Sipora are being cleared for #timber, charcoal and #palmoil, leaving the Sipora flying squirrel with fewer places to hide.

Siberut Flying Squirrel Petinomys lugens
The Siberut Flying Squirrel is one of the world’s most elusive gliders, found only in the #Mentawai Archipelago’s humid forests. At dusk, the Siberut Flying Squirrel launches from high branches, spreading their soft, square-shaped patagium to drift silently between ancient trees. The air is thick with the scent of damp earth and moss, and the only sound is the faint rustle of leaves as the Siberut Flying #Squirrel lands. Their world is shrinking fast—logging and #palmoil plantations are destroying the last forests on #Siberut, #Sipora, and North Pagai. No conservation actions protect the Siberut Flying Squirrel. Stand with indigenous communities and use your wallet as a weapon. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife
Woolly Flying Squirrel Eupetaurus cinereus
The Western Woolly Flying #Squirrel Eupetaurus cinereus is one of the world’s largest and least understood gliding mammals.

A flying squirrel’s world is one of constant motion and quiet vigilance. Don’t let this world disappear! The forests that sustain them are vanishing at an alarming rate. Palm oil-driven deforestation, logging, and land conversion are tearing through their habitat, leaving only fragmented forest. Use your wallet as a weapon and #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife.
Northern Glider Petaurus abidi
The Northern Glider is a Critically Endangered species of gliding #marsupial found only in the Torricelli Mountains of #PapuaNewGuinea. First described in 1981, they remain one of the rarest and least studied members of the Petauridae family. Their population is in steep decline due to deforestation, habitat destruction for #palmoil, and #hunting for #bushmeat. With an estimated range of less than 100 square kilometres, the Northern Glider is at extreme risk of #extinction unless urgent conservation efforts are made to protect their habitat. Take action and resist for this species every time you shop and go #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife in the supermarket.
Smoky Flying Squirrel Pteromyscus pulverulentus
The Smoky Flying Squirrel (Pteromyscus pulverulentus) is a rare and elusive creature silently and gracefully gliding between the towering canopies of Southeast Asia’s rainforests. With their smoky-grey fur, expansive gliding membrane, and bushy tail, these squirrels are perfectly adapted to a dynamic life on the move in the treetops.
Classified as Endangered by the IUCN, their populations are dwindling and at a critical all time low due to habitat destruction from timber logging, palm oil plantations, and agricultural expansion. This fleet footed nocturnal marvel symbolises the fragile ecosystems of Southeast Asia. Protect them by boycotting palm oil and fighting deforestation. #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife
