Local iron man and triathlete Fabio Spiteri won the Unsung Animal Warrior Award for his dedication to raising funds and awareness for abandoned animals.
Fabio does all this through his passion for extreme sports and ‘his commitment exemplifies the spirit of selflessness and determination that these awards seek to honour.’
The runner up in the category was Angelique Lofaro, recognised for her work rescuing and rehabilitating wildlife as part of Nature Trust Malta.
Meanwhile, The Vuci Ghall-Annimali Award was awarded to the Association for Abandoned Animals, who are continuously pushing for animal welfare and run a nationwide neutering campaign.
BirdLife Malta was named runner-up of this category, honouring their bird conservation efforts.
