Passionate about nature, a group of school kids want to do something to help save two species in severe danger - the Atlantic Humpback Dolphin and the Vaquita. 

Alexi, Christopher, Karim, Laurie, Joshua and Alex will do a sponsored relay swim and 10km nature trek to raise awareness of the plight of these amazing, but little known animals and raise funds for the Whales and Dolphin Conservation charity.

The Atlantic Humpback Dolphin

This distinctive dolphin lives in coastal regions off the West coast of Africa is critically endangered. Only 1,500 adults remain and it is in desperate need of protection from burgeoning threats such as hunting and bycatch. Find out more here:

The Vaquita 

This small porpoise lives off Mexico in the Gulf of California and is the most endangered sea mammal in the world. There could be as few as 10 remaining, with fishing nets being the main cause of their demise. Tragically they are on the very brink of extinction. Find out more here:
