What caused the world wildlife fund. in Canada to be formed?

Answer 1

WWF Canada was founded by Senator Alan A. MacNaughton in 1967. It is one of 27 national offices in the international WWF family. Founded in 1961 by a small group of wildlife enthusiasts, WWF International has grown into the world's largest and most respected independent conservation organization.

WWF as a family aims to stop the degradation of the planet's natural environment and build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. WWF Canada helps to advance this mission through six ambitious conservation programs.

WWF Canada's head office - located in Toronto - contains WWF's public support staff and most of its conservation staff as well. Small regional offices in British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Quebec and the Northwest Territories also house conservation staff.

WWF measures its results by the conservation victories it has been instrumental in achieving. These victories are numerous and include the following:

establishment of a new and larger nature reserve for the monarch butterfly in the forests of central Mexico
completion of a North Atlantic right whale recovery plan in partnership with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans
development of an integrated pest management program with a group of Niagara-area apple growers, which reduced their use of toxic pesticides on apples
completion of the ten-year Endangered Spaces Campaign which saw the addition of 38 million hectares - an area bigger than the size of Germany - to Canada's parks and protected lands.
