CWAPC believes that education is an important component of creating social change. To this end, CWAPC will provide the public with accurate information concerning the harmful practice of keeping dangerous wild animals as pets, and ultimately create a safer environment for people and animals. The Education task force will gather and produce public outreach and advocacy materials. Created in a variety of media, these materials will seek to inform all ages, small children, middle school students, teenagers and adults, to reinforce the message that keeping wild animals as pets is dangerous for people and inhumane for animals.

Materials have been compiled from coalition participants and other related organizations to create a comprehensive set. The Education task force will produce original materials in the future to add to these resources.

The goal of these materials is to communicate the following messages:

  • Wildlife should be protected in their natural habitat.
  • Private ownership of wild animals as pets is dangerous to people and inhumane to animals.
  • Wild animals as pets injure and kill children and adults and can transmit potentially deadly diseases.
  • Only professionally operated, regulated facilities can provide appropriate levels of care for wild animals.
  • Wild animals are not suited to be kept as pets.
