HELP SAVE ENDANGERED SPECIES

Please make your urgent, tax-deductible donation today & help protect our most precious species and places

Protecting the home, food & safety of threatened species

Australia has already lost more mammal species in the last 200 years than every other country in the world combined. Koalas are declining at a rate of 21% per decade and could be gone from the wild in NSW by 2050, along with many other uniquely Australian species who are losing their forest homes. Global wildlife populations have declined by 60% since 1970 . Tigers are endangered and on the brink of extinction – with as few as 3,900 left in the wild. In Borneo, orangutans are losing their homes and their lives - they’re now listed as critically endangered. But you can help.

Your donation:

WWF works in partnership with a variety of organisations, communities and individuals to protect endangered species most in need. While we might focus our efforts on charismatic animals — like tigers, orangutans, snow leopards, koalas, rock-wallabies, black cockatoos, quolls and marine turtles— their protection enhances the survival of many other species. Entire landscapes and ecosystems benefit from our approach.
