WWF holiday adoption gift guide: Introducing the polar researcher hero doll! WWF November 20, 2014 Share: Share This Page: Share with Facebook Share via Twitter Share via Linkedin Share in email This holiday season, WWF is introducing six new species, as well as three frontline hero dolls for you to adopt and take home. Frontline workers such as marine biologists, wildlife rangers and polar researchers are important in order to support WWF’s conservation efforts around the world. Let’s learn more about the work of a polar researcher. Polar Institute researcher in Svalbard, Norway.© Jon Aars / Norwegian Polar Institute / WWF-Canon A day in the life of a polar researcher could include: Tracking polar bears, narwhals and Greenland sharks. Predicting what will happen with shrinking sea ice and what it will mean to Arctic species that depend on ice for survival. Mapping possible oil spills to help decision makers determine whether or not to allow companies to drill for oil and gas. Working together with Inuit communities to help manage important ecosystems, like the Last Ice Area, the only Arctic region expected to keep its summer sea ice until 2050. Polar bear (Ursus maritimus); Russian Federation© www.JSGrove.com / WWF Polar Researchers are a key part of WWF efforts: Polar researchers help WWF work towards a healthy future for the Arctic and the amazing species that live in the far North. Climate change is happening faster in the Arctic than almost anywhere else on earth. As the climate warms, glaciers are melting and Arctic sea ice is disappearing. Polar researchers help WWF track and understand how climate change is affecting wildlife behaviour, migrations and food sources. Together, we are working towards an Arctic future that can sustain wildlife and people. How can you help these frontline heroes and their important work? By adopting a frontline hero plush doll you are symbolically helping Polar Researchers and their efforts with WWF in safeguarding species and their habitats. Each adoption kit includes a high quality frontline hero plush doll, spotlight card with information about the work your gift will help support, a personalized adoption certificate, and a reusable tote bag and an applicable tax receipt.
