ADOPT A PENGUIN
Adélie penguins are captivating and inquisitive, but climate change is causing their numbers to drop. We need to take action.
THE PERFECT GIFT FOR ANIMAL LOVERS 🎁
This year why not give a gift that keeps on giving?
Supercharge your impact by selecting an on-going adoption from as little as $15 per month. With an on-going adoption you’ll receive regular email updates so you can see the difference your generous support is making.
Monthly donations make it easier to plan for the long-term, helping to keep administration costs down and providing a huge boost to vital conservation work. You’ll always be in control of your giving and can easily contact us should your circumstances change.
Order now to ensure pre-Christmas delivery of your adoption pack (Australia wide only).
Climate change is threatening our frosty friends
Adélie penguins live along the Antarctic coast and on a number of Antarctic islands. But as parts of the oceans warm rapidly from climate change, the krill population that penguins depend on for food has been devastated. Increased fishing pressures is also threatening this vital food source.
As a result, Adélie populations have fallen by more than 65% in the past 25 years. We can't let this continue.
You can help protect them from extinction by symbolically adopting a penguin today. Your monthly donations will symbolise your support for conservation and animal advocacy, and ensure penguins remain part of the environment forever.
And for each penguin you assist, you'll help a host of other wildlife too.

How your donation can help penguins
By adopting a penguin today, you can help us work with governments, industries and individuals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and minimise climate change. Protecting penguins’ food sources and their homes.
Backing climate change studies
By helping scientists understand penguin locations and the effects on their feeding habitats.
Support ocean policy work
By discussions and representation in government offices and international conferences that advocate for greater protections for marine wildlife.
Increasing marine protected areas
By shaping innovative conservation solutions through our Antarctic Conservation Program.
Protecting penguins' food sources
By improving fisheries management, which is particularly important as global fisheries become exhausted.
We can’t protect penguins without you
When you adopt a penguin, we want you to join them on their journey to a safer future. Your special adoption gift pack includes a optional cuddly penguin plush toy, penguin fact book, adoption certificate, Living Planet magazine and WWF sticker. If you sign up to an on-going adoption, you'll also receive regular updates on how your kind donations are helping to conserve and protect the world's most vulnerable wildlife.
