What do giant pandas, marine turtles, elephants, tigers, snow leopards, whales, polar bears, rhinos, gorillas, sharks, jaguars and monarch butterflies have in common?
All of them are facing threats of extinction.
I recently came across “WWF Together”, an App from the World Wildlife Fund. This interactive App teaches us about the different species through facts, pictures, interactive games and videos.

Threats
This section informs us about the threats each of the animals are currently facing.
Did you know climate change can lead to lower levels of available food and habitat for whales?
Facts
Population, habitat, weight, length and location can all be found on the facts screen.
The 3D globe shows you where the animals can be found in the world as you tap with your finger.
Videos
Although not every animal in the App has one, WWF Together features some interesting videos with commentaries.
Saving species by increasing awareness
The App does a great job in educating and informing people as well as increasing awareness about the threats the animals face. Kids and adults can enjoy this animal adventure while learning some interesting facts.
