Michelle York+FollowGorilla Girls Get Wild—And Find Love!Four rescued gorillas just made conservation history! After years of rehab, Isangi, Lulingu, Mapendo, and Ndjingala were released into the wild—and instantly hit it off with a local silverback named Mwasa. Scientists expected a tough transition, but these ladies were ready to mingle, ditching their enclosure in under two months. Now, they're living their best lives in Virunga National Park, giving real hope for their endangered species. Who knew gorilla matchmaking could be this successful? #GorillaRescue #WildlifeWin #Conservation #Science1090Share
Michael Flores+FollowLeopards Caught on Camera—Finally!Trail cams in South Africa just snapped pics of not one, but TWO super-elusive leopards in De Hoop Nature Reserve! Conservationists are buzzing—these big cats are rarely seen and are considered "nature’s best-kept secrets." The project also caught baboons, honey badgers, and more. It’s a huge win for patient conservation work and proof that camera traps are total game-changers for wildlife. Makes you wonder what’s roaming your backyard at night, right? #WildlifeWin #LeopardSpotting #Conservation #Science200Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowJaguars & Pumas Caught on Camera!Wild discovery alert: Trail cams in Guatemala’s Sierra de las Minas finally snapped proof of jaguars and pumas living way higher up in the mountains than anyone thought! These big cats had been rumored to roam there, but no one had actual footage—until now. Not only is this a huge win for conservation, but it also shows how important these secretive predators are for the ecosystem. Who knew trail cams could spill such major tea on wildlife? #WildlifeWednesday #Conservation #TrailCamFinds #Science80Share
Robin Long+FollowManatee Comeback: Record-Breaking Gathering!Did you see this? Over 700 manatees just packed into Blue Spring State Park in Florida—the biggest group ever spotted there! These gentle giants used to be nearly wiped out, but thanks to conservation efforts and the park’s cozy 72°F waters, their numbers are booming. From just 14 manatees in 1970 to 736 adults and 80 calves this year, it’s a real wildlife win. Who else wants to see a manatee party IRL? #Manatees #WildlifeWin #Conservation #Spirituality1784Share
Matthew Kirk+FollowEndangered Turtles Make a Comeback!After 30 years of being MIA, red-crowned roofed turtles are back in India’s Ganga River! Scientists just released 20 of these massive, critically endangered turtles (think: 50 pounds each) into the wild, hoping to revive the river’s ecosystem. They’re even tracking them to see how they adapt. It’s a huge win for wildlife and a hopeful sign for restoring nature everywhere. Would you want to see these gentle giants in the wild? #WildlifeWin #Conservation #GangaRiver #Pets4675Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowThe Little Dodo Isn’t Gone Yet!Tooth-billed pigeons (aka the ‘little dodo’) were thought to be basically ghosts—no one’s seen one since 2013. But scientists just picked up their calls in the wild using some wild new AI tech! With fewer than 100 left, this could be a game-changer for finding and saving them. If this works, we might even see a comeback thanks to biobanking and maybe even cloning. Nature’s plot twists are wild! #Conservation #EndangeredSpecies #AIforGood #Science110Share
martinezlaura+FollowExtinct Grasshopper Makes Wild ComebackThought this bug was gone forever, but nope! Scientists just found the Monte Gordo grasshopper—aka a 'living fossil'—alive and kicking in Cape Verde after 40 years. This chunky-legged insect can’t fly and only lives on one island, making it super rare and vulnerable. Its exoskeleton is so tough, researchers needed major muscle to study it. Climate change and droughts are still a big threat, but conservation efforts might give it a fighting chance. Nature really does keep us on our toes! #WildlifeWin #LivingFossil #Conservation #Science22Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowWolverines Are Back in Finland!Wolverines, once wiped out from southern Finland, are making a wild comeback! Scientists tracked their return using satellite images and found these elusive predators are loving older, mixed forests. But their future’s still shaky—fragmented forests and small populations keep them endangered. It’s wild to think these fierce creatures are reclaiming old turf after being hunted out for decades. Nature really does find a way! #WolverineComeback #WildlifeWin #Conservation #Science842Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowTurtles Make a Comeback in Yosemite!Yosemite’s native turtles are finally making a comeback after scientists removed over 16,000 invasive bullfrogs from the park! For years, these giant frogs gobbled up anything they could fit in their mouths—including baby turtles. Now, with the bullfrogs gone, baby turtles and even rare frogs are popping up everywhere. The lakes are alive again, and it’s wild to see nature bounce back so fast! #Yosemite #WildlifeWin #Conservation #Science50Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowOysters Are Making a Comeback!Chesapeake Bay oysters are having a major glow-up after years of decline! Thanks to conservation efforts and better conditions, these little filter-feeders are thriving again, cleaning up the water and supporting tons of other sea life. Maryland and Virginia are both seeing record harvests, which is huge for local jobs and the seafood biz. Wild to think oysters can filter two gallons of water an hour—nature’s own Brita! Fingers crossed this rebound keeps going strong for a cleaner, healthier bay. #Oysters #ChesapeakeBay #Conservation #Science40Share
