SLJ, The WWF: World Wildlife Fund.. Week 1, Day 3, Activity 3

The WWF: World Wildlife Fund

  1. World Wildlife Fund (WWF) are trying to save Saimaa ringed Seals.
  2. The Seals give Birth in a lair it digs into a snow bank. If there aren't any snowbanks the pups are born on open ice and don't have any protection against predators, cold and human disturbance. So  the WWF are building snow banks for the seals. 
  3. WWF member from all around the world are all joining to help save the Saimaa ringed Seals by that they also have a plan that we need to take quick action on climate change. 
  4. TRUE FACT: Saimaa ringed seals need snow to build the lairs in which they give birth. But over the past several years, the snow cover in the region has not been deep enough to create those lairs.

  1. Kia ora Sierra,

    Congratulations on completing another activity! And well done on pulling out the important information you needed to answer the questions. I really enjoyed reading about the work the WWF does as I wasn't aware they are currently working with Saimaa ringed seals. It sounds like a hard job but it must be very rewarding. Do you think you'd like to be a part of the WWF?

    Blog ya later! :)
