ZSL\u2019s Around the World quest launches on 1 June 2025, with participants asked to set themselves a distance target for the month, and secure sponsorship to celebrate their work to achieve it. Every movement that Around the World participants make is added to a combined tracker \u2013 with ZSL aiming to achieve a total distance of 40,075km, a full lap of the Earth.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/u>
Wildlife fundraisers can make like a dormouse and commit to travel 2km a day (approximately 2,500 steps) or earn their stripes with an ambitious 8km a day (10,000 steps) and match the distance covered by a Bengal tiger.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/u>
ZSL is competing in a race of its own to protect endangered species and restore precious habitats before it\u2019s too late, with the international conservation charity working in the UK and in more than 80 countries around the world. From investigating whale strandings around the English coastline, tackling illegal wildlife trade in Thailand, to reintroducing Extinct in the Wild snails to French Polynesia, ZSL\u2019s work spans the globe \u2013 but it needs support to continue to meet the needs of the planet. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/u>\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/u>
Taking part in Around the World couldn\u2019t be easier – participants can take part anywhere, any way and any time, and people of all abilities and fitness levels can join in. Those who rise to the challenge will also have the chance to nab themselves some wild goodies \u2013 fundraisers who raise more than \u00a330 will get a ZSL t-shirt, and those who raise more than \u00a3100 can get two free tickets to ZSL\u2019s London or Whipsnade Zoo.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/u><\/u>
Every step taken and pound raised for Around the World will support ZSL\u2019s global conservation efforts. Please visit: <\/span>www.zsl.org\/AroundtheWorld<\/span><\/a> to find out more and sign up to help ZSL create a world where wildlife thrives.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
