We're keeping trees where they belong ?????? When trees like pinyon and juniper encroach into healthy sagebrush range, sage grouse, songbirds, and other wildlife suffer. We defend core sagebrush areas from encroachment and remove trees when opportunities present. Learn more about woodland expansion, a threat to the sagebrush sea, here: https://buff.ly/3M80xNk

Happy Shark and Ray Awareness Day! While seeing a shark dorsal fin might send swimmers to shore, sharks are usually more scared of us than we are of them! These incredible predators are often misunderstood. Sharks are crucial to their habitats, playing a key role in maintaining balance in aquatic ecosystems. The global populations of oceanic sharks and rays have decreased by 71% over the past 50 years, primarily due to overfishing. Shedd Aquarium and our partners, like The Shark Trust, are speaking up for their survival — and you can, too! Sign the Big Shark Pledge to add your voice to the ocean of advocates vowing to protect high-seas sharks and rays — https://lnkd.in/g2ww5VXv.

Did you know some plants are better suited for our swampy climate? According to the National Wildlife Federation, a plant is considered native if it has naturally occurred in a particular region, ecosystem, or habitat without human introduction. Let's take a look at some common native plants for Toledo: Black-Eyed Susan, Prairie Dropseed, and Common Ninebark. Notice how deep their roots grow? These deep roots help the plants stay sturdy during heavy rains and regulate stormwater runoff. Looking for safe species to plant in your yard?

Biodiversity loss is real

It's #ManateeAppreciationDay, although we hope folks appreciate manatees every day! Gentle and playful marine mammals, Florida manatees have come to represent the amazing biodiversity of Florida. With their large size, slow-moving nature, and fondness of seagrass, it's easy to see why they're nicknamed “sea cows” and "chubby mermaids." They’ve long been fascinating to humans, inspiring tales of mermaids among sailors of yore. But popularity can’t protect manatees from slipping toward extinction. These cubby lil mermaids clearly need more help and we're working to save them. More info on our work ?? https://biodiv.us/3TsSkHl
