Hi John,

World Animal Day is the perfect day to show your love of wildlife and take action to protect the planet.

It's also the final day of our fall membership drive. But we only have a few hours left to reach our goal: finding 1,800 people who want to go above and beyond for wildlife.

Can we count on you to help get us there, John?

Today on World Animal Day, make a commitment to the planet and start your monthly membership. Giving monthly is such an easy, efficient, and effective way to protect wildlife and their habitats around the world.

From African elephants to tigers to rhinos, wildlife around the world face so many threats. Become a monthly member now to protect the diversity of life on our beautiful planet, every day of the year.

With your monthly gift, you'll become a WWF Hero and make a difference for conservation around the world. You'll protect biodiversity, save vulnerable habitats, and solve the world's greatest environmental problems—365 days a year!

Want to know about WWF Heroes, and what they care about? They love and respect nature, protect biodiversity, help stop wildlife trafficking, conserve the world's forests, save our seas and coral reefs, advocate for the Arctic and the Amazon, and build a future where people live in harmony with nature.

If that sounds like you, I urge you to join WWF and protect our planet now. Please make your secure gift and become a monthly member today.

I hope to see your name on our list of new WWF Heroes!
