for the past 4 years Ariel has dedicated more time to work with Indigenous Huichol communities and help margined children under extreme poverty conditions around Mexico, creating projects and teaching about the importance of conservation, now this work has taken a different turn as both  endeavours  become one, the fight for animal rights and human rights, Wild Travellers now has created links with a wide network of people and NGO’s dedicated to help our planet,  .. this is what Wild Travellers is about.

… Scars and emptiness are much of daily scenes about our planet in the news lately, with many animals suffering unnecessarily, Indians being taken out of their land for mining, children around the globe starving, and the majority of people, being blocked away by modernization, turning our eyes away from what is our duty and our shore as big brothers in this planet.

We are now facing the time we must start taking responsibility for our acts.

After living in Sea turtle camps and working for more than 13 years in conservation projects, medical and volunteer programs and human and animal rights programs. I have been able to learn more everyday about how we need to balance our kind and become one with nature, we are the major cause for all the unbalanced and instability of our planet at the moment. The more we learn how to listen to our mother earth, the better humans we will become.

Thank you for visiting our website, I hope you enjoy it.
