Please don't turn your lawn into plastic. Plastic grass reduces food & shelter for wildlife such as bees & butterflies; has a high carbon footprint; sheds micro-plastics which wash into our rivers and seas. Create a wildlife-friendly space instead. More bit.ly/3wE67P8 🐝

DYK: Over 95% of ESA-listed species are still with us today?

"More people, more consumption, more #climatechange; more people, more consumption, less #wildlife.”
In 2020, Chris Packham fronted the BBC documentary, "7.7 Billion People and Counting". 4 years on, our population stands at 8.1 billion.

We joined several conservation groups petitioning the AZ Game and Fish Commission to ban the use of dog packs to hunt wildlife. We need to reduce risk to endangered species like Mexican wolves, jaguars, and ocelots and to people and pets on public lands. ow.ly/LO7H50UgaaT

We're #ConnectingTheWild through a study of solar development's impact on wildlife movement in the Four Corners. 🦌 This year, we collared 60 pronghorn and set up 100 cameras to create modeling tools that guide solar siting. More in our 2024 Impact Report: buff.ly/3Bz8iuh

Spectacular vision! If you think you know how to think BIG, test that by watching the latest Ted Talk by @KrisTompkins_ This is the scale we should all be thinking about. It's time for a Hail Mary in rewilding the planet! ted.com/talks/kristine_mcdiv…

Lucky enough to have influence over a patch of land, big or small (through 'ownership' or otherwise)?
Rewild it, and you'll embark on a journey that will profoundly, positively, change your life.
(And make a real difference for nature, the climate, + future generations!) 🌍

A surreal & haunting photo of a jaguar killed in the Superstition Mountains east of Phoenix in 1901.
Just a few generations ago breeding populations of these magnificent cats thrived in Arizona. There are records of a female jaguar with cubs at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.

"Beaver dams hold back water & canals spread it out... The result: a verdant valley bottom that doesn’t burn."
Loved this @ColoradoSun feature on the firefighting skills of our semiaquatic saviors, feat. (who else?) @EmilyFairfax (+ an Eager shoutout).
