Voices for the Vanishing

What happens when the animals we love are slipping away — and what can storytelling do to help stop it? Remembering Wildlife: Voices for the Vanishing brings together the stories behind one of the most influential wildlife conservation publishing projects of the past decade.

Narrated by its founder, Margot Raggett MBE, this audiobook is a powerful, personal reflection on endangered species, the people fighting to protect them, and the role that images — and words — can play in saving lives. Drawn from the acclaimed Remembering Wildlife book series, this anthology weaves together essays and introductions from ten years of conservation storytelling, including Remembering Elephants, Rhinos, Lions, Great Apes, Tigers, and more.

Each chapter offers insight into a species under threat, the challenges they face, and the extraordinary efforts being made to ensure they are not lost forever. This is not a scientific textbook, nor a photographic catalogue. Instead, it is a spoken companion to the visual books — a chance to hear the heart, context, and purpose behind the images.

Through personal anecdotes, conservation reflections, and hard-won hope, Margot shares how a single idea grew into a global movement that has raised over a million pounds for frontline conservation projects around the world. With a special introduction recorded for this audiobook by wildlife filmmaker and presenter Gordon Buchanan MBE, Remembering Wildlife is an invitation to listen, to care, and to remember what we stand to lose — and what we can still protect.
