Every year, about 90 million animals are funneled into the U.S. #PetTrade. About 1/3 of them are taken from the wild — and many are threatened with #extinction. You don't even need to browse the black market — it can be as easy as walking into a nearby pet store. Take action ➡️ bit.ly/47jHgnJ

“Horseshoe crabs have helped so many people and saved so many lives, but Trump officials seem to believe these incredible animals aren’t worth saving from extinction,” said Danny Waltz, a senior attorney at the Center.

Aafrak once ran a community kitchen in her home village of Nabatieh in Lebanon. When conflict forced her to flee north to Jbeil, she brought that same spirit with her. (1/2)

Today Aafrak cooks at a WCK kitchen, serving displaced families the same way she always has: through food. "This work is something we love very much," she told us. "Hopefully we will return to the south and continue it." #ChefsForMidEast (2/2)
