Welcome to the big wide world young Red Wolf! I was extremely lucky to spot this beautiful little Red Wolf puppy. This was such a rewarding moment, knowing this puppy may one day be a contributing Red Wolf to save its species. #redwolf #wolf #usa #wildlife #photography #nature #puppy #wow

One of the 18 of the most endangered wolves in the world, the Red Wolf. It took me 2 years to spot a red wolf, 5 years later I've been lucky to see and photograph most of the wild population. Keep searching and never give up. #wildlife #nature #wolf #redwolf #northcarolina #photo #photography #wow

The Administration is propsing a rule that would gut the ESA. They want to erase/redefine the regulatory definition of “harm.” The piece of the law that says destroying critical habitat—like a wetland, forest, sagebrush—is illegal if it leads to death or decline of an endangered species.

Good morning! Just a reminder that DOGE is not a real department. It’s fake

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

In scope and intensity, 2025 has become the most punishing year yet for transgender people in the U.S. truthout.org/articles/mor...

We must protect the endangered species act. Speak up whenever you can and to whoever you can, Red Wolves depend on it. With only 17 wild Red Wolves remaining, the ESA is vital to their survival. #wolf #endangered #esa #redwolf #america #protection #fight #wild #wildlife #northcarolina #beautiful

Today is Cesar Chavez Day, an even more significant day as Latinos face xenophobic and anti-immigrant sentiments. On this Cesar Chavez Day, remember the struggle of the Latino farmworker and that every meal you eat would not be possible without a Latino food industry worker. bit.ly/43AJr5m

This is what House Republicans voted for tonight. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Until yesterday, I hadn't touched my camera in about a month. Posting photos of wildlife just didn't feel right considering all of the injustice happening to my fellow civil servants and I. Thank you, little Eastern bluebird for lifting my spirits, it means a lot right now. #resist #america #nokings

Musk’s website, DOGE, leaked classified government information to the entire world. NOFURN [Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals] information on their website about the [intelligence community] headcount has prompted a scramble as people check whether their information has been accessed.

Trayvon Martin dreamed of flying airplanes. But he was killed in a racist murder in 2012. His death sparked a national conversation about racial profiling &, following the acquittal of his killer, the #BlackLivesMatter movement. Happy birthday, Trayvon. #TheMarchContinues
