With the number of endangered species around the world continuing to grow each year, Gabby Wild, the founder of The Gabby Wild Foundation, is taking a stand against this important, yet often neglected cause. 12 in 12 for 12 is the integrative approach to combine eco-conscious fashion with animals in a fundraiser/awareness project to promote conservation of 12 unique, endangered and critically endangered animal species. The animals supported by this campaign are:
 |
 |
 |
Amur Leopard |
Bactrian Camel |
Purple Frog |
 |
 |
 |
Ganges River Dolphin |
Blue Morpho Butterfuly |
Asian Elephant |
 |
 |
 |
Gian Chinese Salamander |
Rondo Dwarf Galago |
Red Panda |
 |
 |
 |
Kakapo |
Sumatran Tiger |
Red Wolf |
For the entire year of 2012, each month Gabby Wild will highlight an endangered or critically endangered species through originally-designed outfits created by up-and-coming fashion designers.
Jay McCarroll has been chosen to participate in this project and will be designing an outfit to represent the Kakapo Parrot. The Kakapo Parrot is thought to be the oldest species of parrot and is critically endangered.
