Leopards striding through panda habitat! 🐆 Here in the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi, we’re helping to protect giant panda habitat, strengthen population monitoring and establish wildlife corridors. 🐼 That mean massive benefits, not just for pandas but all the other wildlife that share their home.

A brilliant way to get your #DailyDoseOfNature! 🌸

For the love of bamboo. 🎍🐼 Giant pandas have an almighty affinity with this plant. While humans may spend an hour or two eating a day, panda bears spend anywhere from 10-16 hours a day chowing down on the stuff. They even have a favourite type – one which has aged for 1-2 years as its more tender and nutritious!

There’s less than one week to go until WWF’s #EarthHour... 🌎 ⏳ This year, there are lots of ways you and your colleagues can get involved – during the working week leading up to Earth Hour or on the night itself. Nature also helps us feel good – just 20 minutes per day engaging with nature is enough to improve your mental health – so it can be a powerful ally in boosting employee wellbeing. 💪 Chat to colleagues, share this post with your network and show you care about nature. 💚

What do you owe to the 80s? For us, it's not perms or Duran Duran but the start of our involvement in giant panda conservation in China. 💚 🐼 In 1980, we broke new ground as the first international conservation organisation invited by the Chinese Government to carry out fieldwork in China. 🐼 With WWF’s support, this early research has given us incredible insights into these iconic animals—how they live, their ecology, and their needs. This knowledge continues to guide our conservation efforts today! Roll back in time and discover the full story of giant panda conservation. 👇 https://brnw.ch/21wRmk9

March brings... boxing hares. 🥊🐰 The infamous boxing matches between males and females take place from February until September. But the best time to see these energetic hares is during this month. #DailyDoseOfNature #UKNature [Video description: Compilation of hares boxing, each clip approx a second long.

How are our UK supporters helping save China’s snow leopards? 🐆 With support from the UK, WWF-China has been working on snow leopard conservation for nearly 10 years.🐾 China is home to 60% of the world’s snow leopards, but their vast, high-altitude habitats make research challenging. Only 3% of global snow leopard habitats have been scientifically surveyed, making it difficult to establish targeted conservation measures. By backing these efforts, UK supporters are helping gather crucial data to safeguard these endangered big cats. 🏔️

Following the fires of 2024, WWF Bolivia supported renewed jaguar monitoring to answer important questions on the fate of the felines in Chiquitanía. We’re waiting on analysis to be completed, but it has been confirmed that multiple mammal species have returned to the burned areas (including jaguars)! 🐾 #AmazonFires #Wildlife #CameraTrap

🚨 Our latest statement on the collision between an oil tanker and cargo vessel off the East Yorkshire coast. 🚨 Our thoughts are with everyone immediately involved in the accident and the emergency response operation. Along with Yorkshire Wildlife Trust and Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust, we are deeply concerned about the potential impact that resulting pollution could have on internationally important seabird colonies such as, grey seals and the wealth of other marine life such as harbour porpoise, fish and minke whale that live beneath the waves. 🔗 Find out more https://lnkd.in/eVQtXezD
