Patrick Simmons+FollowTurtle Comeback: Nature’s Plot TwistThought extinct, the northern river terrapin is making a wild comeback in Bangladesh! From just 8 turtles found in 2008, conservationists have now hatched over 400 babies and released more than 100 into the wild. Locals are pumped, researchers are tracking them with satellites, and new nesting beaches are popping up. Proof that when people and science team up, even the rarest creatures can bounce back. Turtle power is real! #Science #WildlifeWin #Conservation00Share
James Brady+FollowRare Spotted Cat Makes a Wild Comeback!Trail cameras in Western Australia just snapped pics of a chuditch (aka western quoll) for the first time in years! This adorable, spotty marsupial was thought to be locally extinct, but thanks to major conservation efforts—like restoring habitats and keeping out predators—at least five have been spotted in 2025. Experts are buzzing, calling it a huge win for wildlife. Proof that when we protect nature, it bounces back! #Science #WildlifeWin #Conservation140Share
martinezlaura+FollowAmerican chestnut trees make a comebackSeeing American chestnut trees thriving again in Virginia’s Lesesne State Forest is a game-changer for anyone who cares about our forests. These trees once shaped entire ecosystems and local economies, but a devastating blight nearly wiped them out a century ago. Now, thanks to decades of conservation work, the largest and oldest orchard of American chestnuts in the U.S. is showing real signs of recovery. It’s a powerful reminder that restoring lost species can help rebuild healthy forests and fight climate change. What do you think—are we doing enough to protect our natural heritage? #Science #Conservation #Virginia403Share
Wesley Romero+FollowForest Elephants: Surprise Population Boost!Turns out there might be 10,000 more African forest elephants than we thought! New DNA-based counting methods show their numbers could be as high as 145,000. It’s a rare bit of good news for these super shy, critically endangered animals. But don’t get too comfy—poaching and habitat loss are still huge threats. Conservation is working, but these gentle giants need all the help they can get to bounce back! #Pets #elephants #conservation671Share
Jacob Morgan+FollowWolf Taylor’s wild journey across I-40Taylor, the Mexican gray wolf, just can’t be contained—he’s crossed I-40 for the third time, ignoring the boundaries set by wildlife officials. Each time, he’s been relocated back south, but he keeps heading north, likely searching for a mate and new territory. Conservationists argue that wolves like Taylor should be allowed to roam, as their natural instincts could help restore genetic diversity and strengthen the endangered population. Should we rethink these boundaries and let wolves like Taylor decide where they belong? What would you do if you spotted a wolf in your area? #Pets #Wildlife #Conservation100Share
megangibson+FollowRare Bird Makes Wild Comeback!Blue-billed Curassows were almost wiped out, but now these super-rare birds are making a comeback in Colombia! Conservationists are connecting forests with eco-corridors and planting native fruit trees to help them survive. Only 150-750 are left, but sightings are up and experts are shocked. Proof that saving wildlife really works! Would you want to spot one of these elusive birds in the wild? #Science #WildlifeWin #Conservation160Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowAustralia’s Wildlife Is Vanishing FastAustralia just lost another native mammal—the Christmas Island shrew—and it’s a wake-up call. The country leads the world in mammal extinctions, but the government’s conservation funding is way too low. Scientists say we need over $1 billion a year to save threatened species, but only a fraction is being spent. Meanwhile, there’s plenty of cash for submarines. If you care about koalas, kangaroos, and all our unique wildlife, it’s time to demand real action. Sign the petition for full conservation funding! #Science #Australia #Conservation01Share
