“The Herds”

This is an amazing puppetry project, featuring life-size cardboard puppets of animals that will be walked across the world from the Congo to Trondheim in the Arctic Circle. Animals all over the planet are facing life-threatening dangers from global warming – this project aims to highlight the peril that they, and we (also animals), are all facing.

On the website you can sign up for the Newsletter to receive updates on the journey taking place from now till end August, and there are great education resources, including downloadable Puppet-making workshops! 🙂 I’ve uploaded the Pangolin here – it’s a bit fiddly, but worth the effort, and the materials (ie cardboard!) are very accessible.
