How do salmon find their way home — without GPS?

Every year, Pacific salmon return to the exact stream where they were born, guided by Earth's magnetic field and an extraordinary sense of smell. No maps. No signals. Just instinct honed over millions of years.

It's one of nature's most jaw-dropping migrations — and it's under threat. On Wild Salmon Day, we're sharing the story behind this incredible journey.

They could have wished for anything — they wished for wildlife. 🎂🐼

Click through to meet three young supporters who turned their birthday celebrations into real impact for nature.

🎂 J fundraised after a school assembly on climate change left him wanting to act.
🎂 Hudson just completed his 10th birthday fundraiser, walking 45 km across southwestern Ontario.
🎂 Isla donated every birthday contribution straight to protecting endangered animals.

Thanks to supporters like them, we're able to protect and restore the ecosystems wildlife depend on.

Over a decade in the making — and the Nunavut Land Use Plan still isn't finalized.

"Every day that we continue without an approved plan, it becomes more and more difficult and more expensive to reverse or to stop some of the work that's undergoing currently with regard to [mineral] claiming, development and exploration." — Qajaaq Ellsworth, an Iqaluit resident and member of the Friends of Land Use Planning advocacy group

Without a land use plan, mineral exploration is continuing in areas that Inuit communities have identified should be off limits — including caribou calving grounds.

WWF-Canada is calling on all parties to work together to get this done. The longer the delay, the higher the cost — for the land and for the people who depend on it.

The Wolastoq (Saint John River) watershed is being restored — one tree, one water sample, one fish habitat at a time. 🌿

We're proud to support the incredible on-the-ground work of ACAP Saint John, whose efforts are making a real, measurable difference for this river and the communities that depend on it.

From habitat restoration to water quality monitoring, this is what meaningful environmental change looks like in action.

Long before pharmacies, there were forests. And they're still prescribing life.

Plants have been central to human health for millennia — and that's worth celebrating.
Nearly 60,000 plant species are used globally for medicinal and related purposes. They stabilise soil, filter water, produce oxygen and help keep us healthy. What can't they do? We love plants! 🌿

Slow and steady wins the race. Turns out that holds up scientifically.

Today is World Turtle Day and World Fish Migration Day — and both of these species have spent millions of years perfecting their routes. But those routes depend on something we can't take for granted: healthy rivers and healthy oceans.

WWF-Canada works to protect the habitats that make migrations like these possible, from the free-flowing stretches of the Yukon River to the open-ocean corridors leatherbacks depend on.
