Egg Adopt NFT Collection

The mission of this NFT Collection is to bring awareness to animal conservation.

Which egg will you adopt?

Eggs symbolize new life and rebirth. They are magical enclosures containing life that offer hope to the world. Eggs require another life to provide warmth and attention for them to hatch, which to us means that all life is connected. These Eggs represent the new generation of life, which will live on forever and tell future generations what their owners wanted to convey about themselves. Each egg contains a brief description with character traits and an interesting fact about the animal. What will your egg represent? Twenty percent of all proceeds will be donated to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a nonprofit with more than 50 years of experience with "a mission to conserve nature and reduce the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth." The WWF is the world's leading conservation organization reaching 100 countries and is supported by almost 5 million members globally.
