WWF protects endangered species and spaces through various actions. With the WWF Immersion 360 virtual reality web series, the organization invites us to share its daily life and discover the solutions it deploys to protect animals in danger
These episodes that we watch in virtual reality thanks to a mask - that we can buy on the WWF website if we don't have one, and it's for the good action?! - transports us to the heart of this wilderness, alongside the experts who study and provide solutions. And for those who don't have a headset, don't panic, the video can also be watched normally
"360° virtual reality reconnects you with nature by teleporting as close as possible to wildlife, discovering species and spaces to protect."
After the turtles in New Caledonia, the 3rd episode takes us to meet cetaceans from the Pelagos sanctuary. This 87,500 km² maritime area in the Mediterranean is home to about twenty species of whales threatened by the risk of collisions and pollution.
In this episode, we follow an expert from the Cetaceans Program, launched in 2000, whose objective is to improve the conservation of cetaceans in this area
Thanks to virtual reality, we get to the heart of the action, seeing him deploy Argos beacons on cetaceans to better understand how they behave near boats. Skin and fat samples are also taken. On the one hand, they make it possible to detect the presence of phthalates (plastic) but also to determine the sex of the mammal or their genetic structure.
