3 Organizations Protecting Endangered Species

Not too long ago, I visited my relatives house and I was helping my younger cousin with a project he had. The assignment was based on organizations that are currently protecting endangered species and for my cousin to pick his favourite one amongst the ones he researched. Below is a list of organizations that myself and my younger cousin has found with our extensive analysis.

WWF (World Wildlife Fund)

World Wildlife Fund was founded on April 1961, that started with a small shop in Morges, Switzerland, and is now the world’s leading conservation organization with 5 million members globally (About Us, 2015). WWF is currently operating in 100 countries with more than 50 years of experience (About Us, 2015).

Defenders of Wildlife

Defenders of Wildlife was discovered on 1947 with the knowledge that wildlife and nature brings unmeasurable value and therefore must be preserved (5 Fantastic Organizations Fighting to Protect Endangered Species, 2015). Defenders of Wildlife is a national conservation organization that is dedicated to protect all native animal and plant species in their natural communities throughout North America (Fantastic Organizations Fighting to Protect Endangered Species, 2015).
