Can you tell your reindeer from your caribou❔ Both are the same species, but they're miles apart! 🦌In North America, wild herds are known as caribou, while ‘reindeer’ only refers to domesticated animals. 🦌 While in Northern Europe & Siberia, they’re all known as reindeer - wild or domesticated!

Scotland is steeped in myths and legends, from our wonderful wildlife to powerful plants. ✨️ In folklore, evergreens symbolised protection and luck during harsh winters. Fairies were said to shelter in holly leaves and people brought holly inside at Hogmanay for good luck. 🌿

The longest night of the year means lighter days are just beyond the horizon. A few extra minutes of daylight each day = more time to spend in nature. 💚 #WinterSolstice

As 2025 comes to a close, here are some of its biggest wildlife wins to bring positivity to your feed! 🫶

Emperor penguin chicks are on the move.🐧 In December, these tiny explorers have shed their fluffy down and start to step off the sea ice and into the ocean for the very first time. 🥹

Give a gift that brings our world back to life. 💚 This Christmas, adopt an animal for a loved one and help us protect wildlife across the globe. 🌍

To all our creators and fundraisers - THANK YOU! This was our first year as a Jingle Jam charity partner and our fundraisers have smashed it! 👏

It’s been a tough year for nature, but there are reasons for hope. 💚 From Nepal’s landmark snow leopard survey to the first satellite-tagged hawksbill turtles in Fiji, this year gave us real wildlife wins to celebrate. 👏 Together, we can bring our world back to life. 🌍

It's been 10 years since the Paris agreement, where world leaders agreed to limit the global temperature rise to under 2 degrees. 🌡️🌍 There's still a way to go, but global collaboration IS working. We need to keep this momentum going. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Behind each image is an amazing team helping to protect them.💚 Camera trap snapshots from our winter monitoring with partners in Northeast China Tiger & Leopard National Park. This year WWF partners: Carried out a total of 1,342 patrols Covered the distance of 14,842km AND removed 132 snares! 🙌

Even a cat this powerful needs protection from poachers. 💔 A century ago = around 100,000 tigers 15 years ago = as few as 3,200 Today = around 5,700 We're making progress, but tigers are still in trouble. Gift a gift that lasts this Christmas. 🎁👇 support.wwf.org.uk/protect-tige...

Storks and beavers are being re-introduced to London! 💚 A brilliant step towards more green spaces. We agree with @london.gov.uk, we all need a daily dose of nature on our doorstep, great to see London taking the lead. 👏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A little robin just swooped into your feed. ❄️ Festive mode activated.

Us with our morning pastry.

And it's happening here too. The UK's puffin population are suffering as sandeels are overfished. Our oceans provide habitats and food for hundreds of thousands of species, as well as mitigate climate change impacts. They need our protection. 🌊 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It’s looking like 2025 was a good year for the Emperor penguin colony near the DDU station.🐧 During monitoring, researchers have counted the highest number of incubating males since 1975! These Emperor penguins have been monitored since 1952, with WWF funds supporting the research station.

Knit for Nature is here!🧶 By designer Ruth Herring, these stunning tiger and penguin patterns are free to download and help raise awareness of the threats facing these iconic species. 💚 Create something cosy for yourself or give a gift that’s made to last this winter. ❄️

The government's new Environmental Improvement Plan just dropped - but does it do enough to protect nature? Great to see action on air pollution and restoring landscapes, but we need this to be a true priority, and for this plan to be delivered.

Today we celebrate the jaguar. ✊🐆 We’re excited to share a selection of images from Brazilian wildlife photographer Rodolfo Paz. With a love for big cats and nature, Rodolfo travels the world in search of capturing unique moments like these. 🧡 #InternationalJaguarDay

“Without the Amazon, nobody lives.” Indigenous voices are sounding the alarm for the Amazon. 🚨 A new documentary from @wwfbrasil.bsky.social shows how the Paiter Suruí people are defending the forest, and our futures. 🎥👉 youtu.be/VLQP6euGczA?...

Who needs the upside down when we have #StrangerThings right here in our world. 💚

There was a lack of focus on the environment and cost of living crisis in today's budget speech. Not investing in nature is short-sighted. We need nature. We ARE nature. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

There are five days 'til Jingle Jam and we can barely believe it! Better yet, ArthurTV's joining us for the first time ever this year! Tune in to his Jingle Jam streams on December 3rd and 12th for Planet Zoo, pandas galore, and a good ol' time fundraising for @wwf.org.uk!

Spotted in ancient forests of China. 💚 This wild giant panda was observed by rangers from 50 metres away. They managed to get some fantastic footage showing pandas’ tree climbing behaviour!

Could you be our next walrus detective? 🕵 ️ Satellite imagery has helped scientists discover a new walrus haul-out site. And it's sparked a call for your help! 📢 To safeguard their future, we urgently need to understand how they’re affected by the climate crisis.👇 www.wwf.org.uk/learn/walrus...

BREAKING: #COP30 ends without a deal to transition away from fossil fuels, halt deforestation, or secure a nature package. Modest steps fall far short of what’s needed after a year above 1.5°C. The work is more urgent than ever – and it must be delivered.

Most important question of the day, are you team pink or team green? 🩷💚 #Wicked

It's a bit chilly! Anyone else channelling their inner emperor penguin huddle today?

As hawksbill turtle nesting season ends, we’re reminded how precious these moments are. 💙 In Fiji, WWF & local communities are protecting these critically endangered turtles from threats posed by the fishing industry, even tracking their journeys for the first time. 🐢

🌴WWF and @greenpeace.org have called for talk to turn to action at COP30. 🌳In a joint press conference today, they called for COP30 to adopt a Forest Roadmap to halt and end deforestation by 2030. Read more here: ow.ly/Cgc250XtG4v #ClimateAction #COP30 #ClimateCrisis

Going into the second week of #COP30, the question remains: will governments rise to meet the moment, bridge the gaps, and deliver decisive action in the second half of this crucial decade? Read more insights from WWF’s Marcene Mitchell: https://wwf.to/4i9qVpD.

We agree! Countries MUST press forward with greater urgency at COP30. We need the UK to work with Brazil and others to secure a plan to end deforestation. #COP30 must be remembered as the forest COP, so we expect the UK to back up its words with actions. can-uk.org/news/secreta...

Over five years after the bushfires swept across much of Australia. Thanks to support from the public, WWF-Australia was able to jump into action and help fund emergency #wildlife responses. But the work didn’t stop there. Together, they’ve helped replant forests and restore habitats. 💚

When people and nature thrive together, the future grows brighter for us all. 💚  The Land for Life project has made strong progress in helping Maasai communities restore habitats, protect wildlife & secure their livelihoods.👏🌱  Find out more about the project here www.wwf.org.uk/land-for-lif...

While leaders are discussing climate solutions at #COP30, others are looking to put the #Amazon at risk. The shocking truth: more money is spent on damaging forests than on restoring them. 🚩 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🚨 PSA for anyone affected by Storm Claudia. Flooded People UK is providing support and an online community to share experiences, support each other or simply be heard. ❤️ 👉 www.floodedpeople.org.uk/supportUK www.bbc.co.uk/weather/arti...

A new UK report shows how deeply climate anxiety is affecting our mental health. We can’t ignore the emotional toll of the #ClimateCrisis. #COP30 offers hope and the opportunity to change things around — if leaders act for people and the planet. 🌏 www.gov.uk/government/n...

#COP30 is our chance to turn things around. Overshooting 1.5°C of global warming is now 'inevitable'. Yet fossil fuel emissions keep increasing. 🔥 We have the solutions, and they WORK. It's time we stop delaying climate action. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

NEW IN: incredible camera trap images from the Guaviare Jaguar Corridor. 📸🐆 Over 114 species were documented by WWF Colombia & local communities in annual wildlife monitoring. Jaguars were spotted on 22% of cameras - a paws-itive sign of their resilience in a habitat threatened by deforestation! 💚

When trees fall in the Amazon, rivers in the UK suffer. When food is bought here, a tree is felled there. A reminder to us: everything is connected. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Our planet is melting before our eyes. 2024 was the hottest year on record - the first to exceed 1.5°C of warming. We face tipping points, but it’s not too late. 🌎 Across all sectors, we already have the tools to create a cleaner, safer future. Leaders at #COP30: It's time to act. ⌛

The news is clear: overshooting 1.5°C of global warming is now 'inevitable'. ⚠️ But by how much, and for how long, is still something we can change. 🌍 As #COP30 kicks off in Brazil, all eyes turn to the world leaders in attendance. Will they take this opportunity to change course?

World leaders are gathering in Brazil for #COP30, which starts tomorrow. Here's everything you need to know before it kicks off. 👇 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c04gqez4lkyo

The world’s smallest elephant is under threat.💔 ~60% of the Bornean elephant’s forest habitat has been lost in the past 40yrs, mainly due to logging & conversion to palm oil plantations. But we're rooting for their success! In 2023 we set up the Elly Allies initiative to tackle habitat loss & more.
