Dear Friend,

At WWF, we see our work as fundamental to the future of humanity. As part of the world’s largest conservation organization we have a unique responsibility to think, act and engage on a global level, while driving the most powerful responses here at home.

But for conservation to be truly successful, no one organization or institution can do everything. We must all work to lighten humanity’s impact on the planet. There are many ways to do this. When shopping, look for products that have been sustainably sourced—those bearing MSC and FSC certifications are good places to start. Support organizations, like WWF, whose work helps to restore the balance ecosystems need to thrive. Perhaps most important, we must change the way we think, making it routine to consider the environmental impact of the way we go about our everyday lives.

It can be sobering to realize that almost all of the planet’s environmental woes are caused by people. But for that very reason, it is also within our collective grasp to solve these problems. No matter where we live, we are united in our dependence upon nature for survival. And so we must join forces for the health and protection of our common home. WWF’s community-based conservation work—in Nepal, Namibia, Tanzania and other places—is a great example of the power of collaboration to achieve sustainable results.

I am pleased to share the 2016 WWF holiday catalog with you. As always, it is full of unique and delightful ways to express your support for WWF and our work. There is something for everyone, and I hope you will find the perfect gift. To peruse the catalog online, please visit worldwildlife.org/gifts.

Thank you for your commitment to conservation, and thank you for your support of WWF. You make every success possible.

Sincerely,

Carter S. Roberts

CARTER S. ROBERTS President and CEO

Classifications like “endangered” and “vulnerable” have specific scientific meanings. WWF uses the standards of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

IUCN standards and the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species were developed to provide a consistent, objective system for evaluating populations. While the main criterion is the measured or observed reduction in numbers, other factors include habitat loss and fragmentation, reduction in the number of mature individuals, and other environmental considerations that put species at risk.

WWF works with species and habitats around the world. A number of animals featured in this catalog are listed as CR, EN, VU or NT. The animals without IUCN labels are at low risk or are of least concern. Your adoption helps protect animals and preserve their habitats.

[EX] EXTINCT

[CR] CRITICALLY ENDANGERED

[VU] VULNERABLE

[LC] LEAST CONCERN

[EW] EXTINCT IN THE WILD

A CHANGING ARCTIC Hope for the FutureDave Aplin, Senior Program Officer, WWF-US Arctic Field Program

In 1986, I drove from Wisconsin to a new job in Alaska as a naturalist for two seasons with the US Forest Service.

In the distance stood Portage Glacier, regularly calving great bergs that drifted into huge piles along the shore. Every day, I talked to visitors from around the world about salmon, volcanoes, wildlife and glaciers.

Twenty years later I returned to Alaska, part of WWF’s Arctic Program focused on tackling critical conservation issues facing the Bering, Beaufort, and Chukchi Seas. And finally, last September I visited Portage for an up close look at that familiar landscape with a group of Alaska teens selected by the US State Department as Arctic Youth Ambassadors.

I was sobered by the speed and scale of the glacier’s retreat — now, you can see what remains of that massive ice face only by tour boat. But, I was encouraged by the commitment of my fellow passengers, young Alaskans who have the will to change things.

BUFFALO PEOPLE’S SUMMITPreserving a Species and Native TraditionsDennis Jorgensen, WWF Bison Initiative Coordinator

This past year, more than 1,000 tribal school children and leaders from 14 tribes came together at the Fort Peck buffalo pasture. Leaders were there as part of a treaty alliance to restore plains bison to tribal lands and children came to learn from elders dedicated to passing along tribal traditions to the next generation. All had gathered in the spirit of sharing the cultural importance of the species to their people.

The gathering was the first Buffalo People’s Summit, a result of WWF’s work with the Pté (Buffalo) Group of the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes in northern Montana. Plains bison play a central historical role in Native American plains culture. Current tribal leadership and community members are strongly committed to revitalizing their deep connection with this species to improve community health and well-being.

Together we are building a shared vision, critical to the long-term sustainability of tribal herds and conservation successes.

NORTHERN GREAT PLAINS RANCHESA Safe Haven for BirdsKevin Ellison, WWF Avian Ecologist

Since the 1960s, grassland birds have declined more than birds of any other habitat in North America. Because grassland birds depend on grazing by cattle to maintain their habitats, cattle raised on well-managed grasslands help conserve grassland birds in the Northern Great Plains. Our Sustainable Ranching Initiative is working to keep ranchers ranching in an effort to maintain habitat for grassland birds and a diversity of wildlife.

WWF is surveying grassland birds to monitor their populations and to better understand how they are affected by habitat loss across the Northern Great Plains. In 2015, WWF surveyed birds on 19 ranches across 200,000 acres in Montana, South Dakota, and Nebraska. This year, WWF will expand our bird surveys to include another 35 ranches.

WWF continues to partner with ranchers to better understand how we can help keep families ranching on the land. Rancher participation in the Sustainable Ranching Initiative is quickly growing and we are working with our partners to keep more grass greenside up.

MILESTONES IN MONTANA Committed to Black-Footed Ferret RecoveryKristy Bly, Senior Wildlife Conservation Biologist

2015 marked the third consecutive year of black-footed ferret reintroductions on the Fort Belknap Reservation in northern Montana. It also marked the second year of documented ferret reproduction – both first-and-second generation kits born to individuals reintroduced in 2013 and 2014 were recorded, showing that our efforts are working.

And in October 2015, as a result of our work with our partners, the Crow Reservation became the 26th ferret reintroduction site in North America.

These are important milestones for the black-footed ferret, one of North America’s most endangered mammals, an icon of the prairie and a spiritually significant animal to Native American cultures. By advancing the species’ recovery in the Northern Great Plains, we are delivering on our goal of ensuring that populations of some of the most ecologically and culturally important species are restored and thriving in the wild by 2025.

Although great strides have been made through captive breeding and reintroductions, habitat loss and non-native disease remain key threats. The establishment of new populations and disease mitigation is addressing these threats. Along with our partners, we are well on our way to establishing 30 or more geographically distinct populations – another milestone so we can remove the black-footed ferret from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife.

RAIN-FED FARMS Harnessing the Power of Precipitation

Ernesto Anchondo examines the furrows of his farm in the upper portion of the Rio San Pedro basin. The vegetation is dead but it remains to prevent erosion. Although this communal swath of desert land looks bone dry, just a few inches below the surface it is moist months before the rainy season.

Rain is the only source of water for farmers here growing corn, beans, oats and other crops. So for the first time last year, Anchondo and eight other farmers in this village were convinced by Dr. J. Alfredo Rodríguez-Pineda, hydrologist for WWF-Mexico, to try a farming method called Keyline, or la línea clave. The furrows follow the natural elevation line to better capture rainfall, stop soil erosion, increase water penetration into the soil and improve crop production. Trenches are dug and lined with rocks, creating dams to direct the water.

As the climate warms, farming communities in Mexico and beyond are feeling the impacts. Warmer temperatures mean water supplies are shrinking and agricultural yields are dropping. WWF is part of the movement to fight this global crisis and help communities adapt.

A SHARED VISION FOR A CLEAN ENERGY FUTUREGood News for Business, Better News for the Planet

Increasingly, corporations across the United States are making the switch to renewable energy – including solar and wind – to power their companies more cleanly and cost-effectively. By adding renewable energy to their facilities or buying from offsite sources, businesses want to be part of a clean energy future.

That’s good news for business, and it’s even better news for the Earth. Now more than ever, it is critical that we promote renewable energy. Pollution from fossil fuels leads to a warming planet, causing rising ocean levels and extreme weather. By continuing on a fossil fuel path, we face major threats to wildlife, habitats and ourselves.

An increasing number of companies are setting aggressive renewable energy goals; some are even aiming for 100%. However, they face challenges in reaching these goals.

That’s why WWF is collaborating with businesses to help them make renewable energy a core element of their sustainability strategies. The Corporate Renewable Energy Buyers’ Principles helps identify common needs among large renewable energy users and charts a path forward in transforming the energy system so they can get the renewable energy needed to power their companies.

These kinds of collaborative efforts are proof that if we work together, all of us — both businesses and homeowners — can make the switch to renewable energy and reduce our carbon footprint for a healthier planet.

HOPE FOR A REEFProtecting People and Animals

The coral reefs and coastal mangroves of Belize teem with life: sea turtles glide through clear waters; vibrant corals span the ocean floor; and a vast array of marine animals find refuge in the tangled roots of mangroves.

Home to 1,400 different species, including 500 types of fish and 100 corals, the reef hosts the world's largest population of threatened West Indian manatees, as well as endangered sharks and marine turtles.

Many coastal communities depend on the reef for fishing and tourism. And the natural barrier helps provide protection against storm surges, hurricanes and erosion.

But as climate change heats up the ocean, coral reefs are increasingly at risk and may be pushed beyond their capacity to recover. Warming waters force algae to abandon their hosts depriving coral of food and its vibrant color. The coral turns ghostly pale from coral bleaching and is vulnerable to starvation.

But there is hope. About 12 miles off the coast of southern Belize, scientists are experimenting with growing and planting corals that are naturally tolerant of warmer temperatures. Small coral fragments are started in underwater nurseries and when they grow large enough, the clippings are gathered and planted in the most damaged areas.

This is one of the ways WWF and partners in Belize are building hope for the future of reefs and the species and people who depend on them.

A GOOD HUMAN FOOTPRINT IS NO FOOTPRINTGood Practices in EcotourismMariuxi Farias, Ecotourism Officer, WWF-Ecuador

Every year, more than 200,000 tourists arrive in the Galápagos Islands to visit the natural treasure trove of unique plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth.

But along with that tourist industry come challenges of plastic consumption, lack of sewage treatment in towns, pollution of water sources, dependency on fossil fuels and cargo transport of supplies that have a direct effect on the untouched beauty of the islands.

So to reduce the impacts of increasing tourist activity in the Galápagos, WWF participated with public and private stakeholders in the design of the "New Model of Sustainable Tourism for Galápagos 2015."

The goal is to establish the Galápagos as a worldwide ecotourism destination of excellence, ensuring environmental conservation, community well being, and visitor satisfaction.

Working together in close collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism, the Municipalities, and the Galápagos National Park, WWF also launched a Good Ecotourism Practices Campaign. WWF took the lead on proposing energy saving, local consumption, water management, and plastic reduction best practices with hotels, restaurants, and tourism operators.

By transforming the Galápagos Islands into an ecotourism model, we can safeguard the islands while also protecting people’s livelihoods.

PROTECTING PERU’S NATURAL LEGACYNow and for the FutureMeg Symington, Managing Director, Amazon

I first traveled to Manu National Park in the Peruvian Amazon to do research on spider monkeys in 1982. I ended every day in awe of the forest. The monkeys practically dripped from the trees and giant otters cavorted in the lake. Species considered endangered in many areas of the Amazon were abundant.

Unfortunately, Peru, like many other developing countries, lacks the funding needed to maintain its national parks, leaving the species the parks have been established to protect vulnerable.

Now, in 2016, WWF is working with the government of Peru to develop and implement a comprehensive long-term plan for fully funding the nation's park system. The goal of National Parks: Peru’s Natural Legacy is to conserve 15% of the country, 50 million acres in 69 protected areas, so that the staff, equipment, and management are in place to sustain the benefits that places like Manu provide to Peru’s citizens and to the world, now and for the future.

TIGER POPULATIONS GROWINGConservation is Making a Difference

Bringing tigers back from the brink takes commitment on a global scale. So, in 2010, all 13 tiger range countries set an ambitious goal to double the number of wild tigers by 2022. The goal is called Tx2 and WWF is working with governments, scientists, rangers, and communities to ensure tiger conservation is a priority.

And it’s working. We are halfway through Tx2 and for the first time in 100 years, tiger populations are growing. A new global estimate of 3,890 tigers shows an increase from 3,200 in 2010, due to rising tiger populations in Nepal, India, Russia, and Bhutan; improved surveys; and enhanced protection. Sadly tiger populations are declining in Southeast Asia, but numbers are stable or increasing in nine of the 13 landscapes where WWF works.

If we are to reach our goal of more than 6,000 tigers by 2022, we must continue to step up efforts to safeguard a species still fighting to make a comeback.

BABY RHINOS SIGNAL SUCCESSRelocation Fosters a Baby Boom

At the end of 2014, the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal reported that its black rhino population had grown to 500, up from 411 in 2004.

That news was a bright spot in an otherwise dark year. South Africa is home to more than 90% of the world’s approximately 20,000 white rhinos and 40% of the 5,000 black rhinos. But rhino poaching in the country has skyrocketed since 2008 and the largest number of poaching incidents in a decade were recorded in 2014.

KwaZulu-Natal’s recent success refl ects the eff orts of the Black Rhino Range Expansion Project, an initiative started by WWF and its partners in 2003. The project relocates small groups of black rhinos from healthy populations to start new ones. By moving animals out of a stable population, the original population can grow more quickly.

Since its launch, the project has established nine new black rhino populations in the provinces of KwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo with more translocations in the pipeline. Only fi ve adults have been lost to poaching, while more than 70 new calves have been born—a ratio that points to a brighter future.

CONSERVING WILDLIFEEnabling Communities

Namibia is home to a vast array of wildlife, from ostriches and zebras roaming the gravel plains to penguins and seals chilling in the Atlantic currents.

Namibia was the first African country to include protection of the environment in its constitution. With WWF’s help, the government has reinforced this conservation philosophy by empowering its communities with rights to manage and benefit from the country’s wildlife through communal conservancies.

Across Namibia and globally, communal conservancies have become a recognized conservation success story. Since 1998, the movement has engaged more than 250,000 community members with the creation of 64 communal conservancies covering 35 million acres of wildlife habitat.

In conservancies, wildlife is now a valued livelihood asset and poaching is no longer socially acceptable. Populations of lions, cheetahs, black rhinos, zebras and other native species have been restored. Human welfare is improving too, thanks to $5.5 million in annual income and benefits the conservancies generate for communities.

SALONGA NATIONAL PARKHope for the FutureAllard Blom, Managing Director, Congo Basin

Back in the late 1980s, after conducting forest elephant surveys and being shot at by poachers, I found myself stranded at a remote and isolated airstrip with no means of communication. A plane scheduled to pick me up simply never arrived. So after two weeks of hanging around, I set out on foot, finally reaching the nearest airport 10 days later.

At the time, only about 200 guards with only one single weapon and little equipment bravely patrolled millions of acres — an area larger than Belgium — here in the heart of the Congo Basin. Difficult to reach except by boat or plane, Africa’s largest tropical forest, Salonga National Park, harbors rich biodiversity, including forest elephants, bongos, giant pangolins, the indigenous Congo peacock, and possibly as much as 40% of the world’s bonobos. But poachers have found a way in and wildlife populations have been hit hard.

WWF has been working in Salonga now for more than a decade and in 2015, we signed a three-year co-management agreement. In the coming years, our goal will be to train and increase the number of field staff and improve capacity, infrastructure and logistics to safeguard the park’s irreplaceable wildlife while also ensuring livelihoods for people in and around the park.

MYANMAR, LAND OF IRREPLACEABLE RICHESThe Face of Change in Asia DeforestationLee Poston, Communications Director, WWF – Greater Mekong

After emerging from 50 years of isolation, Myanmar is brimming with opportunities for both conservation and growth.

The challenge is to balance safeguarding forests and rivers which people and wildlife depend upon while creating new roads and new businesses; raising people out of poverty without destroying rich natural resources.

Since opening our office here, WWF has supported Myanmar to become a model for sustainable development.

Projects are under way to assess natural resources including forests that absorb carbon and provide habitat for endangered wildlife; rivers that are a source of drinking water; and mangroves that help protect coastal communities.

WWF is hopeful decision makers will use the assessments to promote a green economy approach where sustainable use of natural resources is balanced with plans and policies for the economy, energy, agriculture, land use, foreign investment and more.

Ninety plants, 23 reptiles, 16 amphibians, nine fish, and one mammal have been found but many of them are already at risk. They include a feathered coral whose closest relatives live in Africa, four moths named after Thai princesses, a color-changing thorny frog and two orchids discovered are already being traded.

Between 1997 and 2014, 2,216 new species were discovered in the Greater Mekong – a region encompassing Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, That’s an average of three new species a week!

SAFE PASSAGE FOR ORANGUTANSBoosting Local LivelihoodsLinda K. Walker, Director, Responsible Forestry and Trade

Just like humans, orangutans need safe paths to travel. But for Borneo’s orangutans, the safest path is the high tree canopy of tropical rain forests. Orangutans depend on these intact aerial routes for habitat, safety and food.

For the past five years, WWF-Indonesia has been working to create more of them. In partnership with local communities, WWF is replanting native rain forest trees in the Labian-Leboyan Corridor, a degraded forest that links two national parks: Danau Sentarum and Betung Kerihun.

Through this unique partnership, WWF is working with five villages; consulting with them to develop a restoration plan, and empowering them through employment to establish native tree nurseries, and to plant and monitor the trees.

This project will restore more than 1,500 acres and allow orangutans and other species safe passage. To boost local livelihoods, this project also supports a new system to provide clean water for the Ngaung Keruh village.

Working in partnership with local people, together we can create a sustainable forest management for a better future — for people and orangutans.

CORAL TRIANGLE Monitoring Fish and Coral ReefsDr. Gabby Ahmadia, Senior Marine Scientist

As a child in Hawaii, I snorkeled in the crystal blue waters with my family, always curious about marine life. As I got older, I realized just how threatened our marine resources are and committed myself to making a difference as a scientist.

Today, my work focuses on monitoring fish populations and coral reefs so we can better track the status and trends of reef ecosystems to develop more effective conservation strategies.

I’m currently working in Indonesia on a long-term project to study performance of marine protected areas (MPAs) and their impacts on ecosystem health. I work with local scientists to collect and record data on thousands of corals as well as fish and marine mammal species. We have data from hundreds of coral reefs in Indonesia gathering a growing body of hard scientific evidence. By studying coral reef ecosystems, we can measure changes to biodiversity and how species and ecosystems respond to threats -- including fish pressure, pollution and climate change -- as well as conservation initiatives.

Working alongside local scientists, we are able to exchange knowledge and share expertise, learning from one another and maximizing our effectiveness and results.
