WWF

World Wide Fund for Nature

The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is an international non-governmental organisation, founded in 1961, working for nature preservation and the reduction of humanity's footprint on the environment. It was formerly named the World Wildlife Fund, which remains its official name in Canada and the US just to make it confusing.

WWF has bases around the globe with different countries producing various branded items to fundraise including stamps and pin badges. Some of which are internationally distributed while others can only be purchased in the specific country.

WWF International - Vanishing Species Series

The vanishing species series seems to be a worldwide badge set, originating in the early 90's. Some are much more common than others such as the panda, macaw and tiger. The wolf and turtle are fairly hard to come by were as the rhino, gorilla and quetzal are very rare indeed. Colour and size variants exist with most designs.
