Lately, I've been on Kickstarter reading about new projects people have been trying to 'kick-start'. I came across a couple of them that I want to support, but I decided to share one that I think I shouldn't just keep to myself.
It's Kooalala (pronounced koo-ah-lah-lah) clothing, a fashion line inspired by endangered animals on the IUCN red list of threatened species. The company is named after the koala which was 'near threatened' but became 'least concern' in 2008, which means there is hope for threatened species.
Check out their clothing on Kickstarter.
Here's some of the animals they were inspired by are:

| Tigers Image by @Doug88888 |

| Arabian Oryx Image by Danny McL |
(For shipping outside the U.S., they request that you'll pay an additional $10) :(
- $20 or more, they'll send you a plain Kooalala t-shirt with the colour of your choose.
- $30 or more, they'll send you a Wild Tiger T-Shirt (Men's).
- $40 or more, they'll send you a Blessed Poison Frog shirt (Women's) or a Cloud Copper Butterfly shirt (Women's).
And if you donate $1000 you will receive 5 Kooalala duo packages and a Kooalala medal of honour which allows you to pick the next animal for their collection from the IUCN red list of threatened species.
Also, the fashion line gives some of its proceed to nature preservation and the endangered animals.
