Michael Flores+FollowRare Orcas Spotted Where?!Only 73 southern resident killer whales are left, so seeing a whole pod off the Oregon coast is wild! They usually stick to northern waters, but with Chinook salmon getting scarce, these orcas might be following the fish south—right after a huge dam removal opened up new salmon habitat. It’s proof that when we fix rivers, nature bounces back (and brings the whales with it). Fingers crossed for more sightings like this! #Orcas #ConservationWin #Wildlife #NatureIsHealing #OregonCoast #Science33611Share
Jacqueline Ray+FollowAnxiety Meds Make Fish Bolder?!Turns out, anti-anxiety meds like clobazam don’t just chill out humans—they’re making salmon braver too! Scientists found that salmon exposed to these drugs swam faster, took more risks, and even zipped through hydropower dams. But here’s the catch: being bolder means they’re also more likely to get eaten. All this because our leftover meds end up in rivers, creating a druggy soup for fish. Wild, right? Pollution is changing animal behavior in ways we never expected! #ScienceNews #PharmaceuticalPollution #Wildlife #EnvironmentalImpact #WatercoolerMoment #Health81Share
Al Bundy!+FollowThe Squirrels Of Washington Square ParkThis particular photo was taken near sundown. I had to climb a bench partially to get closer. To my amazement the squirrel stood still almost like it was posing for the photo. Hope you enjoy this as much as I have. 💯🙏🏽💯 #Squirrel #WildlifePhotography #Squirrels #NYCWildlife #NYCAnimals #NewYorkWildlfe #CentralParkSquirrels #WildlifePhotography #Washingtonsquarepark #Wildlife826Share

fisherchad+FollowNever Cut Your Line When Snagged 🚫PSA fellow anglers: When your line gets snagged, never just cut it and leave it in the water! That discarded line can wrap around wildlife causing harm or death. I always work to retrieve my line, even when stuck. It's not just good etiquette—it's about protecting the creatures we share the water with! #fishing #fishingethics #wildlife #Outdoors 3430Share
bushjill+FollowDoes shedding antlers actually hurt deer? 🦌Random thought - when deer shed their antlers, does it hurt them? Or is it like losing baby teeth? #hunting #deerfacts #antlers #shedding #wildlife2827Share
