My name is Emma Frettingham
I left full time teaching a few years ago and I’m now lucky enough to spend my time drawing pictures of the wildlife I love.
I first picked up pastels two years ago during lockdown and haven’t looked back since. I am fascinated by anything to do with the natural world and have drawn and painted all my life. I now combine my passions in the artwork I create.
It has never been more important than now to step up and protect our planet. I try my best to do this through my everyday life but joining in with events such as this helps me feel that I’m making a valuable contribution. Invicta’s ethos fits my own beliefs like a glove. Through their efforts the planet is a better place to be. With their help, future generations might then grow up valuing their environment and caring for the wondrous array of creatures within it. This is why I want to take part in their exhibition.
African Wild Dogs have disappeared from much of their former range. Their population is currently estimated at approximately 6,600 adults in 39 subpopulations, of which only 1,400 are mature individuals. Population size is continuing to decline as a result of ongoing habitat fragmentation, conflict with human activities, and infectious disease. Given uncertainty surrounding population estimates, and the species’ tendency to population fluctuations, the largest subpopulations might well number <250 mature individuals, thereby warranting listing as Endangered under criterion C2a(i).
