Take a pause and float peacefully with us for Manatee Awareness Month.
Make some room in the jacuzzi please!
Did you know that Florida manatees cannot tolerate waters below 68° F for extended periods, as cold water can stun and even kill them? Whether natural or man-made, manatees depend on warm waters to survive the coldest days of winter.

If we let the extinction crisis go unchecked and wildlife go unprotected, we will lose more than just animals. We will lose our greatest teachers, our furry friends and neighbors, and our ties to the natural world – all in our lifetime.
But with the Endangered Species Act, we can keep them safe.

#DYK polar bears are only found in the Arctic?
In fact, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge’s coastal plain is the most important land habitat for denning polar bears in the U.S. Yet that’s exactly where disruptive seismic testing for oil and gas is set to take place.

#DYK: we’ve been fighting for wolves since 1947?
In the 60s, we called for reintroductions in Yellowstone. In the 80s, we conducted public education campaigns to garner support. In the 90s, we were there when Yellowstone reintroduced wolves and we established Wolf Awareness Week!

AWOOOOOO!!!
For some (likely rabbits, moles, and other small mammals) hearing that famous wolf howl will send shivers down their spine, but for us, it’s nothing short of magic.
Happy Wolf Awareness Week! 🐺
