🦏 Meet the Javan Rhino, one of the world's rarest mammal species!​

With fewer than 90 Javan rhinos remaining in the wild, these elusive mammals now call just one place home: Indonesia's Ujung Kulon National Park.​

The critically endangered Javan rhino is a key indicator of the health of Ujung Kulon's forests. Protecting this iconic species helps ensure the long-term resilience of the ecosystem it calls home.​

With its entire remaining population confined to a single landscape, challenges such as habitat degradation, invasive palm species, inbreeding, and poaching leave little room for population recovery. Every effort to protect and restore its habitat is critical to ensuring the Javan rhinos continue to thrive.​

🌿 Through the fifth edition of Eco Deals programme, WWF and Agoda are supporting critical conservation work on the ground, from strengthening ranger patrols and restoring habitats to advancing research and monitoring initiatives.​

As WWF-Singapore celebrates its 20th anniversary, we remain committed to protecting this iconic species and strengthening the long-term resillience of ecosystem it calls home.​

Happy World Orangutan Day! 🦧​

🌳 Fun fact: Orangutans don't just live in forests, they help grow them. As nature's seed dispersers, they play an important role in keeping rainforest ecosystems healthy for countless other species! ​

That's why protecting orangutans means protecting so much more.​

WWF-Singapore supports conservation efforts in Sumatra, Indonesia, the world's only habitat for the critically endangered Sumatran orangutan.​

Through forest protection patrols, habitat restoration, boundary management, and wildlife monitoring, we're helping to safeguard this vital habitat. And the habitat orangutans depend on is home to clouded leopards, tigers, sun bears, elephants and more.​

🧡 This World Orangutan Day, we're celebrating more than one species. By conserving orangutan habitats, countless other animals and plants will thrive too. Because when forests flourish, wildlife flourishes.​

🌏 Protecting wildlife doesn't stop in our forests and oceans. Increasingly, it extends to the digital world.

Illegal wildlife trade is a major driver of biodiversity loss, contributing to the decline of wildlife populations and putting vulnerable species at greater risk. Reports of illegally traded tortoises being offered for sale on online platforms in Singapore highlight how this challenge continues to evolve in digital spaces.

Recently, our fellow Panda, Nayli Raifana, trained a new group of more than 40 volunteers through WWF-Singapore's Cyber Spotter Programme, equipping them to recognise suspected illegal wildlife trade online and report listings for further action.

Working alongside local law enforcement authorities and platforms that are part of the Coalition to End Wildlife Trafficking Online, our volunteers play an important role in strengthening detection and reporting. To date, more than 750 volunteers have reported close to 36,000 listings.

As illegal wildlife trade evolves online, our response must evolve with it. Effective action takes a collective effort - from enforcement agencies and technology partners to informed communities.

Thank you to our Cyber Spotter Programme volunteers, supporters and partners for continuing to play their part in protecting nature.

Happy World Elephant Day! 🐘💚​

Elephants are nature's gardeners and play a vital role in keeping forests healthy. 🌱 ​

Protecting elephants, however, is more than safeguarding a species. It also means creating space for people and wildlife to live in harmony.​

Together with partners like WWF-Thailand, WWF-Singapore is supporting human-elephant coexistence across the Dawna Tenasserim Landscape (DTL). Through early warning systems, drone technology, and rapid response teams, communities are better empowered to respond quickly to elephant movements, helping to reduce conflict and protect both livelihoods and wildlife. ​

When people and wildlife thrive together, nature wins. 💚​

As WWF-Singapore celebrates 20 years of conservation impact in Singapore, initiatives like these are made possible through the support of our communities, partners, volunteers and supporters.​

This World Elephant Day, we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone helping to create a safer future for both people and elephants.​

Happy 61st National Day, Singapore! 🇸🇬​

This year’s National Day theme, “Majulah Singapura, Go Beyond!”, celebrates the collective spirit that has shaped our nation and the role we can all play in caring for our shared home and its natural heritage.​

Through WWF-Singapore’s education and outreach programmes, we bring people closer to nature – from school engagements and guided walks to volunteering and community initiatives. By deepening connections with Singapore’s biodiversity, we
aim to inspire greater appreciation and action to protect it.​

🌊 Time and tide wait for no one!

An early morning visit to Lazarus Island's intertidal shores revealed some incredible residents—from tiny critters tucked beneath the sand to fascinating sea creatures. Swipe through to meet a few of them! 🦀

These unique habitats are both fragile and essential to the health of our marine ecosystems. As tempting as it is to get a closer look, remember: look, don't touch! 😉✋

If you spot marine wildlife, admire them from a distance. Avoid touching, collecting, or stepping on them so these amazing creatures can continue to thrive in their natural home. 🌿

Planning your own intertidal adventure? Share this post as a friendly reminder to explore responsibly. 💙

🚨 If Planet Earth had an emergency contact, it would be rangers.​

Our planet faces growing pressures every day, from threats to wildlife and ecosystems to the impacts of climate change. Protecting nature requires constant care, courage, and action.​

That's where rangers come in.​

Rangers stand on the frontline of conservation, safeguarding wildlife, protecting ecosystems, and preserving the natural spaces that people and nature depend on.​

Behind every conservation success story are the people who make it possible. Yet many rangers continue their vital work despite facing challenges such as limited resources, funding, and recognition.​

💚 As celebrates its 20th year, we honour the dedicated rangers safeguarding wildlife, ecosystems, and our shared future.​

Join us in recognising the rangers who make conservation possible. Share this post to help amplify their stories and show your support!​

🐯 Can you hear it? The RAWRRR of recovery is getting louder! ​

This , we're revisiting some of the most inspiring camera trap moments from Malaysia, Nepal, and China. 📸​

Today, Nepal announced the results of its latest National Tiger and Prey Base Survey 2026, with an estimated 429 wild tigers across the country, up from 121 in 2010. This represents one of the most significant species recoveries globally.​

Every remarkable sighting is evidence that conservation efforts are making a difference. Each image represents years of collaboration, protection, and commitment to securing a future for wild tigers.​

As tiger populations recover, helping people and tigers coexist is more important than ever. That's why WWF has launched Coexisting with Tigers: Tools and Approaches for Managing Human-Tiger Interactions—a new resource for communities, practitioners and governments.​

📱 Scan the QR code to explore key insights from the report.​

🧡 Tiger recovery is a shared success story. As WWF marks 20 years in Singapore and 65 years globally, we would like to thank our partners, local communities, rangers, researchers, and supporters who have made this progress possible!​

Got 10 minutes? A reef needs you. 🌊​

Think you can spot the difference between a branching coral and a plating coral? Test yourself, then put that skill to real use. We are training everyday people to identify coral online, no dive gear, no experience, just your eyes and a spare 10 minutes.​

Every identification helps reef managers record and understand coral reefs better across the Sulu-Sulawesi Seascape in real time.​

Your next scroll could be the one that helps save a reef. Link in bio to start 🐠​​
