Good morning lovely bloggers

I have been having a good day yesterday playing rugby outside with my brother and my next door neighbor.  Also yesterday my neighbors gave us some awesome gifts.  Anyways I am in a bit of hurry today and I thought since I still have a few minutes before we head out shopping I will complete the next task.  For this task we had to watch a video and answer a few questions about the WWF and the animal they are trying to protect. WWF stands for World Wildlife Fund. The WWF are an organisation all over the world who are trying to protect sea and wildlife.  The WWF are great people with hearts of gold to take on such a huge task of saving and protecting  sea and wildlife.  Its not an easy task so theses wonderful people have taken on and they need to be praised for their hard work.  I am answering my question based on the first video I watched.

Questions:

1) The name of the animal the WWF is working to save? 
The animal that the WWF is trying to save is the Saimaa ringed seals. So far there are 360 Saimaa ringed seals left.

2)What the WWF is doing to help the animal?
The WWF is trying to  build snow banks so that the seal can give birth in a lair that digs into a snow bank and they can be protected from predators, the cold weather and human disturbing them. This helps to grow the numbers of Saimaa ringed seals so that more can survive and we will have a more of these seals around.

3) What,if any,success they have had protecting the animal?
 I believe they have been some what successful because they have 360 Saimaa ringed seals still alive and that would be with the help of the WWF building the snow banks for them to grow the numbers of these particular seals to survive. They are still in need of a long term plan against climate change in order to be fully successful.

I have to go now because my mum and dad are waiting for me to go shopping. I hope you all  have an awesome day.

    Wow, I am blown away with the detail you have included about the World Wildlife Fun (WWF) and the extra information you have included about Saimaa Ringed Seals. I have so much fun reading your posts because of the amount of effort you put into your work. It really pays off so I just want to thank you.

    You are absolutely right. The WWF is working to protect the seal pups from being born on open ice. They are doing this by building snow banks which will protect the pups from the cold air, predators, and impact from humans. If the WWF were not building these snow banks then up to half of the pups born, could die. That would be awful as there are not many Saimaa Ringed Seals left in the world.

    Do you know where about in the world these Saimaa Ringed Seals live?

    I cannot wait to see more activities from you.

    Kindest regards,
    Megan :)
