Hope amid an escalating poaching crisis
We’re delighted to share the Wildlife Jewels Collections Rhino Legacy Capsule, honoring Thandi—a courageous poaching survivor—and her family. Their story embodies hope and strength amid an escalating poaching crisis.
“I sketched, painted, and translated Thandi & Zolani’s bond into hand-drawn art, fashion design, and appliqué—across apparel, décor, and gifts—so we can wear and share their inspiring story to help protect rhinos.”
— Azi Sharif, Founder & Executive Director, Wildlife Jewels®
