Preventing Disabled Snakes Through Community Outreach

Call Corbin Campaign


Wildlife Conservation

Industry

Corbin Local Wildlife is a small, but mighty, nature reserve on the Caribbean island of Tobago, focused on the rescue, rehabilitation and education of native wildlife. With limited resources, the co-founders, Ian and Roy, care for the animals, run guided tours and raise awareness about poaching and the exotic pet trade.

After speaking at Bounce in January 2025, we connected with Ian Wright, the inspirational co-founder of Corbin Local Wildlife.

Over 9 weeks, we redesigned a fragmented visitor experience and built sustainable systems across digital and physical touchpoints. (add link)

In parallel, we led a community outreach campaign focused on reducing fear-driven harm to snakes.

The Question

people we hitting snake: loose strike method, more rodents,

the (free!) service exists, people just dont know about it. people want help. they are scared.

Inspired by a mental health info card spotted in a local fruit shop, we created mini flyers.

We designed a dedicated webpage accessed via the QR code on the mini flyer.

Snake stickers advertise the service around the island
