Wildlife News Curated Just for You
[[link removed]]John,

Together, we are witnessing and participating in unprecedented events across the
country and the globe. But one thing hasn’t changed: Our work for wildlife must
continue, no matter where we are.

We hope that you will find the stories and free tools below to be helpful during
these uncertain times. Since 1936, we've been fighting for wildlife and for the
conservation values that are woven into the fabric of our nation's collective
heritage—and we will continue to fight for science-based conservation in an
ever-changing world.

Thank you for your continued support. Stay safe.

PLEDGES FROM WORLD WILDLIFE DAY
[{EXTERNAL_URL~[link removed]}]
On World Wildlife Day, we asked our conservation army to tell us one simple
thing they would pledge to do in their everyday lives to help wildlife. Here’s
what some of your fellow friends of wildlife had to say!

Kimberley Y. “Continue to sign petitions.” Elaine C. “Plant a pine tree.” Michelle M. “Try to use less plastic.” Christine O. “Try to cut down on unnecessary waste.” Irene S. “Continue to keep our backyard as a wildlife habitat.” Merrylyn S. “I'll 'adopt' one of the animals that are stuffed to represent the animal
species I'll adopt.” Ty Y. “Picking up trash and plastic.” Denise L. “Buy products with less or eco-friendly packaging.” Sheri H. “Put up a bat box, plant bee friendly plants.”

Thanks so much for these as well as all of the other great answers we received!

[[link removed]]BLACK OFFICIALS STEWARD COMMUNITY SOLUTIONS TO ENVIRONMENTAL INJUSTICES
[{EXTERNAL_URL~[link removed]}]
For many South Carolinians, the conservation of wildlife and regional waterways
is intrinsically tied to the ongoing fight for clean drinking water and flood
mitigation. Extreme flooding threatens the health and safety of communities like
North Charleston, South Carolina and pollutes the state’s prized rivers and
coasts. As natural solutions to flooding promise both mitigation of
life-threatening floods and restoration of wildlife habitat, the urgency of
federal investment in these types of infrastructure is clear to many living in
Lowcountry.
