One Euro. One Island. One Future.
Ibiza’s wall lizard (Podarcis pityusensis) is vanishing. Invasive snakes are spreading fast, and every month, thousands of lizards disappear from our island.
We are starting creating Lizard Zones – small, protected sanctuaries where lizards can survive and thrive even in snake-affected areas. And now, requests are coming in from property owners across the island. They are desperate. They want to help save the lizards on their land, but they can’t do it alone.
A Real Example: One Property’s Plea
"Hi, I have lots of lizards in my garden, but the snakes have just arrived. I desperately want to build a sanctuary on my premises, but need help with funding it. Please can you help me. I have a 4x2 m area to install a lizard sanctuary. Time is running out!"
This is just one of many messages we receive. Properties like this are priority zones—if we act quickly, the lizards can be saved before snakes wipe them out.
What Your Donation Supports
- Emergency Lizard Zones on properties under snake threat.
- Materials and labor to build safe rock walls, hiding spots, and food sources.
- Snake control traps to reduce immediate risk.
- Expert guidance and support so property owners can maintain their lizard refuges long-term.
Why It Matters
Harmful insects, rodents and birds, existing due to the ab-sense of the lizard, are generating diseases for plants, grape, -almond, -fig, -pine -palm trees, and cactus es. For many years, the island is already heavily invested.
- Ibiza’s lizards are endemic—they live nowhere else on Earth.
- Losing them means losing the ecology and natural balance of the island.
- We can’t wait for government funding. The community must step in now.
How You Can Help
- €10 supports food and monitoring for one trap.
- €50 builds part of a lizard-safe microhabitat.
- €100 helps secure a property like the one above before snakes destroy its lizard population.
If every Ibiza lover gave just €1, we could protect thousands of lizards immediately.
