Scary Stories

If you’re into scary stories, you don’t want to miss out on a wild tale that echoes the fear factor you’d find in a Hollywood horror flick! We’re talking about White-nose syndrome which is affecting three species of bats and spreading across North America, threatening entire populations of these creatures!

Help the Bats

Carve a Wild Pumpkin!

Choose from a boo-tiful bat, spooky spider, a howling wolf or our very own mascot.

  • Boo-tiful Bat
  • Sneaky Bat
  • Leathery Seaturtle
  • Wicked Widow Spider
  • Howling Wolf
  • Canadian Wildlife Federation Logo

It’s easy to use one of CWF’s templates to carve a cutting-edge Jack-o’-lantern, just follow these simple instructions.

  1. Click on your favorite template link above.
  2. Print the PDF that opens in your browser.
  3. Cut a hole in your pumpkin on the top, big enough to get your hand in there.
  4. Scoop out all the stuff in the pumpkin — this part is messy so have fun!
  5. Pin or tape your template/pattern to your pumpkin.
  6. Use an awl or pen to poke small holes along the black edge of the shape.
  7. Remove the paper and, using a knife, cut along the small holes you made.
  8. Drop a flashlight in your pumpkin and take a look in the dark!

After creating the spookiest, most unique Jack o’ Lantern on the street, why not create a snack the whole family can enjoy with this recipe for roasted pumpkin seeds.

Spooktacular E-cards!

The year’s most frightful night is rapidly approaching and CWF is offering you some spooky treats to help celebrate!
