Are there any charities for Sea Creatures?

Question

My brother loves Walruses and got a bank in the shape of a walrus, and calls it the "Walrus Foundation" and saves money in it for walruses...The only thing is, we don't know about any charities for walruses or sea creatures... Are there any?

Answer 1

If you have a look around you will surely find some charities that deal with the conservation of sea creatures though i am not aware of one specific to the walrus. SeaWorld is not a charity but a business though they may donate to some charities (specifically the one that does research for them) but they are not a charity. A charity is a non-profit organisation not a business.
I am not aware of one specifically for the walrus, a lot of them are focussed on dolphins like
Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society
http://www.wdcs.org/
Marine Connection
http://www.marineconnection.org/news/general/about%20the%20charity.htm
SeaWatch Foundation
http://www.seawatchfoundation.org
they also have a number of links to other charities

You could try contacting the Monterey Bay Aquarium which are a non-profit organisation, they do a lot of research into marine organsims, maybe they can reccomend something more specific:

The BBC have a walrus tracking project going on, it may ot be a charity but may have soem interest for you and your brother, there are quite a few links there as well to related things:

A few other research project focusing on the Walrus, maybe you could ask them for information where you can donate to to support them or something:

you could also try asking at marine wildlife rescue centres or aquariums.

Answer 2

Try your local aquarium. Project Seahorse is an international marine conservation project that relies on donations for funding. We have been supporters of Project Seahorse for years and applaud their projects all over the world. To name a few, saving mangroves to bring back healthy coral reefs, teaching local fishermen the proper way to fish and learn ways of making a livelihood other than off the seas so marine life will regain its shrimp population, a very important step in the food chain.
