Freedom to Roam
For nearly 150 years, national parks, wildlife refuges and management areas have been sanctuaries for wildlife. They are core habitats that provide important resting and nesting areas.

But these places were created without the linkages necessary for wildlife to roam so that they can find food, mates and adapt to landscape changes. Otherwise known as wildlife corridors, these connections are critical for wildlife’s future survival.

Learn more about how Freedom to Roam, a new World Wildlife Fund initiative, is working to raise awareness, appreciation and commitment to wildlife corridor conservation across the world.
