The Trust has awarded a grant to Stephen Sutton and his team in Sabah, to elucidate the distribution, ecology and conservation status of the Kinabalu, or Borneo, Birdwing. This superb butterfly, now confined to the slopes of Mt Kinabalu National Park, will very soon become an icon to match the orangutan and giant Rafflesia flower. Read more here.
Swallowtails and birdwings are beautiful and graceful butterflies – who wouldn’t love to see them dancing in the sunlight or sipping nectar from wildflowers? But many species are under threat from agriculture, forestry and climate change. We have ideas, enthusiasm and a vision for the future. Will you help us to achieve our goals?
Financial contributions are welcome and will be treasured. We also need your ideas, new information, suggestions and encouragement!
We do four things to help swallowtails and birdwings: we raise financial resources; convene networks and partnerships; catalyse action, and provide scientific and technical support.
