On this day we celebrate Whales!

To coincide with World Whale Day, we’d like to invite you to get to know more about this incredible species. We've got some simple and fun ways to show your support; from learning some fascinating whale facts, to colouring in an underwater scene.

Safe passage: Protecting pacific giants

Blue whales in the Eastern South Pacific are endangered. Every year, having bred in the warm waters off Central America, this distinct blue whale population migrates through the high seas to the shores of southern Chile to feed. WWF are working with partners within the Easter blue corridor, in support of the Chilean government to promote a Marine Protected Area in international waters.
