save the fanciest animals on earth
the penguin isn't dressed for the job
The Chinese word for penguin is '企鹅', which translates to business goose.
But alas, here's the problem: the penguin isn't dressed for the job.
The Business Goose Foundation is a foundation that helps these endangered animals to keep on waddling.
why penguins?
While these adorable animals keep us smiling, they play very important roles in their ecosystems. For example, they serve as food for predators and help transport nutrients both in the ocean and on land, supporting the health of various ecosystems wherever they go.
Unlike many other birds, penguins lay only one or two eggs per year, which makes it more difficult for their populations to recover.
There are 18 different species of penguins, and sadly, 11 of them are currently listed as threatened with extinction by the IUCN.
how you can help
Penguins are going extinct for several reasons. One major factor is food scarcity. Overfishing by humans has significantly reduced the amount of fish available, leaving penguins with less to eat and causing many to die from starvation. Another serious threat is global warming. Penguins rely on sea ice to access their food, but as the ice continues to melt, their populations have been declining as well. If global temperatures keep rising, most penguin species will be at even greater risk of extinction.
To help support the penguins, we decided to give back to the people who donate. These animals deserve to be saved, so every time someone donates to this cause, we will send you a picture of a penguin wearing a top hat and bow tie.
All the proceeds will go to World Wildlife. To help the penguins and also help people figure out ways to stop global warming. And with that, you can see a penguin getting saved in style!
