Wildlife Adoptions

Our friend Gerardo is part of the Sea Turtle Protection Project, where local kids are helping to protect sea turtles and their nesting habitat in Nicaragua. Adopt your own sea turtle to help them out!

Meet Emmanuelle! Working in the high Arctic, she’s investigating how warming temperatures are impacting snow buntings, a prey species for the Arctic fox. Their populations have dropped drastically in the last 45 years, and understanding why will be critical in ensuring the continued survival of this species and predator animals like the Arctic fox.

River Otters need heroes like you! By connecting and protecting wild spaces areas across Ontario, we can give animals like the river otters safe places to live and thrive.

Meet Reyd! She’s working on a project to better understand how oil contaminants are impacting the animals exposed to them, including the walrus. This work will be critical to guiding future conservation policies that will protect the fragile ecosystems animals like the walrus call home.

Meet Patrick! He’s studying how phytoplankton, the microscopic creatures that form the basis of the Arctic food web, are being affected by rising ocean temperatures. Learning more about how these foundational organisms respond to a warming Arctic will help us better understand the broader impacts of climate change on the ocean ecosystem as a whole, all the way up to top predators like beluga whales.

Meet Claudia! She’s a biologist working in the Northwest Territories. Claudia is observing the relationships between animals in this vital region. Support her work by adopting a caribou!

Really important work is happening in British Columbia’s Rocky Mountain Trench, a valley in the northwest of the Rocky Mountains. That’s where important habitat for wildlife (like the bighorn sheep!) are being restored by Land Stewardship Manager Julia Poetschke and a team of scientists and researchers from the Nature Conservancy of Canada. Adopt a bighorn sheep to support NCC as they work to preserve this key ecosystem.

British Columbia’s Rocky Mountain Trench is home to some of Canada’s most famous — and endangered — animals. Adopt a grizzly bear to support a team of adoptions/ scientists and researchers from the Nature Conservancy of Canada, including Land Stewardship Manager Julia Poetschke. They’re all working hard to restore this important ecosystem.

British Columbia’s Rocky Mountain Trench is home to some of Canada’s most iconic — and endangered — animals. Support Land Stewardship Manager Julia Poetschke and the rest of team from Nature Conservancy Canada as they work to restore an important ecosystem in the trench — adopt an American badger today!

Osa Conservation is an incredible team of scientists and conservationists, dedicated to protecting Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula! This diverse rainforest ecosystem is threatened by hunting and human activity. Adopt a jaguar to help safeguard the habitat of these apex predators.

Katie’s research is focused on the relationships between predators and prey in Hudson Bay – and how those relationships are being impacted by the melting sea ice. By adopting a ringed seal, you’ll help Katie learn how to better protect these animals and their homes.

Meet Megan! She is leading a team of conservationists in Eastern Ontario’s Frontenac Arch, a corridor of forests, wetlands, and lakes that help fight climate change and are home to a huge amount of biodiversity. Adopt a moose to support her work!

Peter and his team are working to identify and help protect Key Biodiversity Areas; the most critical sites for protecting Earth’s biodiversity. Adopt a swift fox to support the preservation of native grasslands in Saskatchewan – one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world.

Meet Megan! She is leading a team of conservationists in Eastern Ontario’s Frontenac Arch, a corridor of forests, wetlands, and lakes that help fight climate change and are home to a huge amount of biodiversity. Adopt an eastern wolf to support her work!

Meet Nicholas! He is studying polar bear movement patterns in an area of the Arctic called the Beaufort Sea. Sadly, warming temperatures due to climate change are melting the sea ice that polar bears rely on for hunting. Adopt a polar bear to help Nicholas protect these extraordinary creatures!
