Yesterday morning, the Miami-Dade County Commissioners moved the vote over the fate of Miami-Dade's Pine Rocklands to Sept 19th after two hours of public comments! This gives us more time to rally together and amplify our voices in opposition to the proposed theme park that threatens to destroy this vital ecosystem and disrupt the lives of endangered wildlife.

Here are some urgent calls to action to help us protect and preserve the Pine Rocklands:

"Poaching: Welsh-trained dog saves rhino in South Africa

A dog trained in Wales helped to save an 18-month-old rhino from poachers in South Africa.

Dan, a one-year-old Belgian malinois, was bred and trained at Dogs 4 Wildlife in Carmarthenshire.

Last week Dan found Viola, a rhino calf that had been caught in a snare in KwaZulu-Natal province with her mother nearby. The pair were both saved."

‘Death by a thousand clearcuts’: Canada’s deep-snow caribou are vanishing | The Narwhal

The B.C. government spends millions on extreme measures — like wolf culls and maternity pens — to support these mountain-loving herds found nowhere else in the world. Yet such efforts fail to offset the habitat destruction at the root of their disappearance

This soft pastel polar bear portrait created in 2019 has gotten some positive reviews. These majestic arctic creatures are sadly endangered by loss of habitat and climate change. I hope that they will manage to survive so that we'll have more than just images to look at in the future.
