We achieve more together. With #NatureServe tracking species data and the #ESA50 directing resources to save the most at risk, 71 species have been saved from extinction in 50 years. Click here to conserve more biodiversity: ow.ly/A68G50NOzTC #EarthDay

Ever been looking bold but feeling shy? Despite their bold, beautiful appearance, #threatened massasaugas tend to be shy & secretive. They do everything they can to avoid humans. ARC protects massasaugas & 100s of other species: ARCProtects.org/work 📷: E. Grimes, CC-BY #ESA50

You know who else is good friends? @NOAAFisheries and @USFWS! Together our two agencies share responsibility for implementing the Endangered Species Act. This historic law turns 50 years old this year and has helped to protect species like this! #ESA50 📷: Mark Sullivan/NOAA

Sage-grouse are important ambassadors for the #SagebrushSea, a western landscape that supports hundreds of species. Conserving #SageGrouse benefits many other wildlife in the area like elk & the pygmy rabbit. However, their habitat is threatened by land use & #ClimateChange.

Named after one of the nation’s great conservationists, Teddy Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota is a hidden gem. If you like to view unspoiled badlands scenery and watch prairie sunsets while bison graze on native grasses, then @TRooseveltNPS is for you! Photo by Yang Lu
