Histórico
The Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) is an international wildfowl wetland conservation charity in the United Kingdom.
The trust was founded in 1946 by the ornithologist and artist Sir Peter Scott as the Severn Wildlife Trust.
The first site at Slimbridge was a centre for research and conservation. In a move unusual at the time, he opened the site to the public so that everyone could enjoy access to nature.
This organisation later developed into the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, the only United Kingdom charity dedicated solely to promoting the protection of wetland birds and their habitats
