WWF (World Wildlife Fund) is a major wildlife conservation body. The US branch, WWF-US, was founded in 1961 by Russell Train,[1] who was the second US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administrator from 1973-77. Train was the president of WWF from 1978 to 1995.
In the same year that the US branch of WWF was founded, the organization was established in Europe with Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands as its international president and Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh as head of the UK branch.[2]
