Why adopt an African elephant?

There are two species of African elephants — savanna (or bush) and forest elephants—which wander through 37 countries across Africa. They use their long trunk for communicating and handling objects, and their large ears to radiate excess heat. Forest elephants are uniquely adapted to the dense forest habitat of the Congo Basin but are in sharp decline due to poaching for the international ivory trade and habitat loss and fragmentation.

WWF is working to conserve these majestic creatures by slowing the loss of natural habitat, strengthening activities against poachers and the illegal ivory trade. With your symbolic adoption, you’re helping protect habitats to provide a healthier natural world for us all.

DESIGNED TRUE-TO-LIFE ELEPHANT PLUSH

Our African elephant plush features large ears, a short tail, stumpy feet with toenails and tusks, just like the real-life species! The ears of African elephants are much larger than other elephants and are shaped similarly to the continent of Africa.

Here are our most commonly asked questions about our symbolic adoption kits.

See our FAQ page or contact gifts@wwfcanada.org for more help.

How does my purchase help wildlife?

Your purchase through our e-store is a crucial part of our fundraising efforts to support the conservation work that our scientists undertake to protect wildlife and their habitats. For example, to help protect narwhals, our Arctic Species Conservation Fund supports narwhal tagging and research in Nunavut. We also support the development of non-invasive research techniques, including the use of aerial drones and underwater microphones. This work helps us learn more about distribution, behaviour, and the impacts of underwater noise on narwhals, inspiring actions that safeguard the species.

What is the name of my animal / How do I receive information about the animal I adopted?

Our Wildlife Adoptions are symbolic, which means that your purchase does not correspond to a specific animal in the wild. By selecting the wildlife adoption kit you like best, you are helping to protect all species at risk – not just one.

WWF works around the world to help conserve species and the
habitats they call home. Your gift goes a long way in helping to make these efforts possible.

How do I request a blank adoption certificate with my Symbolic Wildlife Adoption purchase?

If you would prefer to personalize your certificate yourself, you can opt to receive a blank adoption certificate. Simply leave the sender and recipient name fields blank.

Annual gift

Every year, I give each of my 4 grandchildren an animal from the WWF collection. I’m very careful not to duplicate and to match the animal to each child. They all love it and we are happy that it’s for such a good cause.

This is a great gift for kids who care about the world around them.
