No More Dodos endorses
Animatronic Elephant Campaign

We want to introduce you
to one of our new Art Ambassadors with a dedicated passion for saving
Asian elephants.

Beau Townshend is an
exceptionally talented freelance special effects artist from Norwich,
Norfolk with a BA Hons in the degree of Special Effects for Film and
TV; majoring in animatronics, from Southampton Solent University. And
he is passionate about saving elephants.

Beau has created Patrick the head of Animatronic Elephant to raise
awareness of the plight of Asian elephants. He is seeking funding via
Indiegogo to build the body (plus a baby elephant too if he raises
double his target).

No More Dodos is delighted to endorse Beau’s work and
will be helping to promote it wherever possible.

Help Patrick Come To Life!

Beau is currently running a crowdfunding campaign to build a life-size
fully functioning (walking) Sumatran elephant he calls Patrick.

Beau plans to take Patrick on walks through various cities such as Brighton,
Bristol, Norwich, London, Southampton, Cambridge and many more, to
raise awareness for the plight of the critically endangered Sumatran
elephant, whose numbers are rapidly declining due to loss of habitat
and poaching.

Beau has already built the head of Patrick, and now looks to build
the rest of him with help from public donations from people who care.

Please if you can, pledge your support through
Indiegogo. The campaign deadline is Easter Saturday
– why not make it your Easter gift?

And here’s the Indiegogo link:

Please also share this with your friends and
followers, and ask them to give their support to the elephants too.

Come and Meet Patrick!

Patrick the Animatronic Elephant will be appearing at
the No More Dodos ‘ANIMA’ event at Brockenhurst,
Hampshire on Saturday 30th September 2017.

Applications are being taken for smallholders and other participants.
Do get in touch now.
