The Texas coast just got a major win for wildlife: over 3,300 acres of crucial habitat have been secured to protect the world’s last wild flock of whooping cranes. These towering, snowy-white birds were nearly wiped out in the 1940s, but thanks to decades of conservation, their numbers are slowly rebounding. The new sanctuary isn’t just for the cranes—it’ll help restore prairies, protect marshes, and support other rare species too. Locals and visitors alike will soon have more chances to spot these incredible birds and join in on conservation efforts. What do you think—can we keep this momentum going? #Science #TexasCoast #WhoopingCranes
