President Trum is an ignorant idiot. Bloomberg says Trump will sign an executive order tomorrow (2/11) ordering the Department to buy electricity from coal fired power plants.

Floyd, the Alcatraz, Coyote, will be relocated by the National Park Service. Ecologically, that is the right decision. Alcatraz is a designated seabird sanctuary, and Floyd would have been a serious threat to nesting colonies.

If Donald Trump ever gets control of Greenland, these Arctic scientists will feel even more uncomfortable.

I’m embarrassed by our President’s unhinged note to Norway’s PM. Hang in there, Europe.

From Defenders of Wildlife: The House of Representatives recently passed Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-CO) misleadingly named “Pets and Livestock Protection Act,” a bill that aims to eliminate all remaining federal wolf protections under the Endangered Species Act and prevent any future legal challenges.

Yesterday, at a Ford plant in Detroit, Trump became the first sitting U.S. president to have publicly responded to a heckler with both an explicit “F-bomb,” and a middle-finger obscene gesture. He probabiy considers that an important achievement.

Weaponizing Possums against Burmese pythons in south Florida is an interesting idea.

Paul and Ann Ehrlich wrote this article long before Colossal Biosciences began their de-extinction marketing campaign. I completely agree that de- extinction is a dumb idea.

"The current HHS Secretary is the most dangerous in U.S. history" @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social & @jimalwine.bsky.social are not mincing words progressive.org/latest/rfk-j...

Great news for a change!

Someone needs to explain this to the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum.

This is awful. We have to stop this guy. 2026 is our best chance.

Completely horrifying.👇 Anti-science monster. RFK Jr. Cancels mRNA Vaccine Research www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08... Reality: Vaccine... - saved millions of lives - < hospitalization - < long COVID - > pregnancy outcomes - < healthcare costs - promising platform for other diseases! - etc, etc!!!

Science denialists believe they are the true “skeptics” who are embracing science’s rigor. They claim they want evidence--but failure to accept well-supported conclusions in the light of overwhelming evidence isn’t skepticism. It’s denial. - @thinkingpowers.bsky.social

Lets see how the Administration “puts lipstick on this pig”. I know the MinicokaIdaho site. And it is sagebrush desert.Cold in winter, hot in summer and windy most of the time.

I feel sorry for the NPS employees who are required to remove politically censored signs. That would be painful.

This article brightened my morning. Many years ago, Lava Beds NM (northern California) had a similar problem with a coyote that ljked sleeping bags.

Are Trump's crippling cuts in NPS budget, along with mass firings, step 1 of a plan to privatize our national parks?

Southern elephant seal good news.

This Bill has just been referred to the House Natural Resourses Committee. If it becomes law, the Mexican Gray Wolf will almost certainly become extinct.

@altnps.bsky.social I have not been able to find any information on FY 26 NPS budget that was included in the reconciliation bill that Trump will sign tomorrow. If anyone knows where I can find it, I would welcome your help.

Really good news. An ESA success story.

This absolutely can’t be allowed to happen. We need to overwhelm our members of Congress with opposing views.

Our National Park,System is the best in the world, and most Americans have highly favorable views of the National Park Service (NPS). So I have a great idea. Lets eviscerate the the NPS to help pay for an income tax cut.

A little good news for a change.

The 5calls app is great and easy to use. Thanks for mentioning it. Too many people turn off because the constant stream of idiocy from this admin leaves them feeling powerless. It's time we all take our power back.

Just imagine what it must have been like to be uprooted from your home in coastal California and placed in a concentration camp in southern Idaho.There is no way to put a happy face on that story. The NPS placard is historically accurate. Interior Secretary Burglum’s comments make me feel ill.

The genome of the northern white rhino has been mapped.That’s good news. The research team obtained DNA from cells that had been frozen and stored in the “Frozen Zoo” at the San Diego Zoo.

Another attempt by the current Administration to control the message.

Last week, President Trump removed key protections from a marine protected area that's home to coral reefs, whales, sea turtles, and countless fish. My op-ed for @us.theconversation.com explains why that's bad and we should not do that. theconversation.com/trump-is-str... 🧪🦑🌎🐟

This is really bad news. It is one more step in Trump’s war on science.

” He added that “Leftist dopes” run the Ivy League college, and “because of that, Harvard can no longer be considered even a decent place of learning, and should not be considered on any list of the World’s Great Universities or Colleges “Harvard is a JOKE, teaches Hate and Stupidity”.

TRUMP Is an embarrassment to the United States.On Wednesday, April 16,he posted this unhinged rant on Truth Social. “Harvard has been hiring almost all woke, Radical Left, idiots and ‘birdbrains’ who are only capable of teaching FAILURE to students and so-called ‘future leaders’ “.

Five alarm fire for academic freedom in Texas, which now threatens to close programs that teach factual history.

60 university presidents and past presidents stand up in support of Harvard against Trump’s threats and thuggery. fortune.com/2025/04/15/h...

Congress could eviscerate the Endangered Species Act – speak up today! Congress is actively considering new legislation that would drastically weaken the ESA, rewriting vast parts of this law that is our strongest tool in preventing extinction. act.defenders.org/page/81476/a...

Let's be clear. The dire wolf has not been resurrected. No matter what Time Magazine claims. President Trump and Interior Secretary Burgum are only looking for excuses to cripple or kill the Endangered Species Act.

SCIENTIS SAY THEY HAVE Domestic animals have been cloned for many years, and an endangered black-footed ferret was cloned recently. But if the company’s claims are correct, the dire wolf is the first species recreated from fossilized tissue.

Interesting article. Measles can have a long lasting effect on immune systems. Including loss of immune memory. Should be required reading for RFK.

Eulachon smelt were listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act in 2010. Their abundance has since increased to a level that allows limited harvest.

Measles removed from Endangered Species list.

This just sucks.

National Park trails closed, chaos in Yosemite, unpaid utility bills at black-footed ferret recovery center and the list goes on. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are short on common sense and long on hubris.
