That means we would have donated £%correct_count%.00 to WWF if the quiz was completed on World Wildlife Day or the following week, plus we tripled the donation if it was shared on social media! WWF donations fund projects which work with local communities to monitor turtle lifestyles and protect their habitat, as well as supporting other vital animal work around the world.
UN World Wildlife Day (WWD) celebrates and raises awareness of the world’s vibrant and wild animal and plant life.
WWD 2022's theme is “Recovering key species for ecosystem restoration”.
According to data from the IUCN, over 8,400 species of wild fauna and flora are critically endangered, while almost 30,000 more are understood to be endangered or vulnerable. These estimates suggest that over a million species are threatened with extinction.
Loss of species, habitats, and ecosystems threatens all life on Earth, including us humans at Turtl. WWD 2022 seeks to draw attention to the conservation status of some of the most critically endangered species of wild fauna and flora, and to drive discussions imagining and implementing solutions to conserve them.
World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is a registered charity that aims to create a future where people and nature thrive.
As a SaaS business that focuses on the best way to engage and communicate with people in a natural, scientifically-proven way, we align with WWF's goals. Plus we love animals - hence our namesake!
WWF safeguard Earth's most cherished wildlife – including terrific turtles – from threats such as poaching and habitat loss. In fact, £100 could pay for a GPS to map turtle nests. This is helpful given it is estimated that only 1 in 1,000 marine turtle hatchlings make it to adulthood.
The team at WWF also protects the world's most treasured wild places from being overexploited for their natural resources. But they can't do it alone: WWF's many successes are only possible thanks to the generosity of supporters, like You and Turtl.
Well, you've already done the quiz! You can further support WWF on their website.
Not only will we at Turtl increase our financial contribution to WWF on your behalf, but more people will get to see the amazing work of this charity and learn cool turtle facts just in time for World Wildlife Day!
