Rangers work around the clock to protect rhinos and their habitats. But some ranger camps often lack reliable power. That’s why WWF has supported three ranger camps in Kenya with a reliable 24h power supply through solar-power. ☀️ No more generators that rely on fuel. ⛽

A brrr-illiant camera trap moment captures a snow leopard with frozen eyebrows! 💚 Luckily these cats are well adapted for these extremes. Their thick fur coat insulates them from the harsh weather at these high altitudes! 🐆

Good news on #NetZero! ⚡ Switching to clean homegrown energy helps protect nature and protect us from the worsening impacts of climate change. All while bringing our bills down. 💪

These jaguars may all look alike, but it's their rosettes which tell them apart. 🐆 After analysing thousands of camera trap imagery in Madre de Dios, monitoring teams identified a total of 75 jaguars in the area over two years! Here are just a few they spotted. 👇

We can’t be the only ones who can’t wait to tune in to #AGorillaStory on Netflix#AGorillaStory🦍 There are still only around 1,000 mountain gorillas left in the wild. But, thanks to incredible conservation efforts, their numbers are on the rise. The story of this incredible species isn’t over yet.

For lions, room to roam means survival. But these big cats have lost 90% of their historic range in the last 100 years. That's why WWF is working with local partners and communities to help keep wildlife corridors open. Because when wildlife can move freely, everyone benefits.

Vibrant colours are returning to Rio's skies. 🌈 Blue-and-yellow macaws could once again be seen flying over the city, centuries after deforestation pushed them out. Incredible to see the work of this 'refaunation' project paying off. 💚

Have you ever seen a fluffier, more impressive tail? 🥹 Snow leopards have incredibly long & fluffy tails, measuring up to a metre! It’s thought they help these cats to balance & act as a wrap-around to keep them warm. 🧡 [Alt text: A snow leopard with a big fluffy tail walks across snowy ground.]

To reduce disease, we all need to make some urgent but simple changes to how we feed our garden birds. See our website for the latest guidance: brnw.ch/21x1t4w

Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor penguins at risk of extinction

A big win for black rhinos. 🦏 👏 The recently established Tsavo West Rhino Sanctuary now provides 3,200km² of rhino habitat, hugely expanding the existing 92km² Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary. This positive step will help encourage population growth with hopes to increase no’s in Kenya to 2,000 by 2037. 💚

Tourism, when done right, can support conservation. In Bwindi, Uganda, tourists’ park entry fees and gorilla‑trek permits contribute funds for rangers, habitat protection, and community projects. 🎬 youtu.be/gab2C4bskN8?...

The monarch butterflies are back! 🦋 The latest reports show populations in Mexico surged 64% this season, possibly due to a drop in forest degradation in their overwintering habitat. Conservation efforts in Mexico and in the US are working and offering real hope for the species’ recovery. ❤️

We call them marine PROTECTED areas, but bottom trawlers are still tearing up seabeds. If we want thriving oceans, these areas must be kept off-limits.
