American actor Leonardo DiCaprio has pledged his support to WWF's Hands Off My Parts campaign, sending a personal email to WWF supporters, celebrities and other influencers, encouraging them to join the wildlife crime campaign and sign the petition.

DiCaprio, who announced last month he's taking a break from acting, joins other celebrity supports including Emily VanCamp, Josh Bowman and Stacy Keibler for the initiative which aims to bring awareness to animals being killed for their body parts.
