💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦈✈️ On August 16, 2026, #NewEngland #Aquarium scientists flying over the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument logged more than 2,000 #animals across 15 species southeast of #CapeCod.
The count included 11 #whale #sharks, some 1,800 #dolphins, an endangered #spermwhale, and a #humpback. Researchers called the #diversity a marker of #habitat value, noting recent #policy changes now allow commercial #fishing there.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐕🌍 Conservationists are moving African wild #dogs between reserves to build genetically diverse packs.
The story follows three sisters flown from #Mozambique to #SouthAfrica, held in a boma, then released and tracked. The program has added over 340 dogs since 1997, but #habitat loss and human conflict still leave every pack fragile.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐦🩹 A #whitethroat struck by a car was brought to the #Leicestershire #Wildlife Hospital with feet curled up and unable to grip from nerve or ligament damage.
Staff built tiny casts from cardboard, #cotton wool, and micropore tape to cushion and steady the feet while they heal. The #bird, an amber-listed species of #conservation concern in the #UK, is recovering well and expected to be released soon.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦞🎒 #US #Fish and #Wildlife biologists are testing tiny photo-IDs attached as "backpacks" to #endangered Big Sandy #crayfish in #Appalachia.
Because injecting a #chip would harm the 10 cm (4 in) #crustaceans, researchers superglue a batter-free PIT tag to each #shell and set it with baking soda water. The setup was first tested on a common surrogate species, and the tags letting go are actually a sign the crayfish survived long enough to molt.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦋📡 Scientists strapped #solar-powered #radio transmitters onto monarch #butterflies in #California to track their #winter habitat use.
They attached the tiny backpacks with eyelash glue after weighing each insect to confirm it could carry the gear. Chilly pre-dawn temperatures kept the cold-blooded butterflies still enough to handle safely.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 📸🐸 Joel Sartore has photographed more than 18,000 animal species for #NationalGeographic’s #Photo Ark, each posed against plain black to be seen face to face.
The #images span creatures large and small, many #endangered or thought #extinct. Sartore’s goal is documenting all roughly 25,000 species in human care before it’s too late.
