Worldwide
Fund for Nature (formerly World Wildlife Fund)
Nearly 88 nature clubs in schools and colleges associated
with WWF take part in their regular talks, films and slide
shows as well as field trips near Mumbai city. The Panda Bulletin
and the nature camps to various sanctuaries are part of the
benefits for members. Training camps help volunteers learn
the basics of conservation. During Mahashivratri, for example,
these volunteers organise the crowds that pour into the
Sanjay
Gandhi National
Park , and during Nagpanchami,
awareness is created about the ill-treatment of snakes. Annual
activities like tree planting and beach clean-ups are also
carried out.
