My Story
One of my 2021 goals is to run a race as a family. Since my boys are animal lovers it was pretty easy to convince them to sign up for this race. Climate change has led to loss of habitat for polar bears and that affects us all. Did you know that polar bears can travel up to 2,000 km a month? This year's virtual challenge is to collectively run or walk 10,000 km (2,000 km for each of the Toronto Zoo's 5 resident polar bears) as a community and raise over $15,000 for the Toronto Zoo Wildlife Conservancy.
Description
All proceeds from Move Your Paws will support the Toronto Zoo's conservation, education and research activities with polar bears! The goal is to increase the population of this nationally threatened species as well as inspire people to live in ways that promote the well-being of the natural world.
