About WWF

WWF has been working hard at its job for years.
It has been open for more than 40 years. It leads a very important job in the world. Without WWF we wouldn’t have all the nature we have today. Although sadly some people don’t appreciate it as much as I do. If you only some people would understand what they are doing to the world. WWF works towards 3 targets, one is helping endangered species another is addressing global threats such as toxic polluting and the other target is protecting endangered habitats. We are getting there, although WWF couldn’t do it without all the members and kind donators who dedicate their time towards WWF.

History of WWF
In 1960 the biologist Sir Julian Huxley returned from a research trip to Africa deeply shaken from what he had seen ;runaway habitat destruction and uncontrolled hunting of endangered species which later could have led them to extinction.
Huxley shared his thoughts with some fellow biologists and together they created WWF.
Where WWF Works
WWF works to save wildlife and its habitats in more than 50 countries over the 7 continents.
The largest member of the WWF network is the USA where 1.2 million people are members.
WWF works on a global scale, protecting the Himalayas to the Brazilian Amazon, Galapagos to the Arctic Ocean.
So as you can see, WWF works over huge parts of the world, to help wildlife and its habitats.
