And in another example of the inextricable relationship between animals and humans, I give you the incredible island of Madagascar. #AnimalMatters

Most animals on this island nation are found nowhere else on Earth. And now they’re vanishing.
The only way to save them is to put people first.

October has me thinking about legacies—of visionaries like Jane Goodall, and of the stubborn spirits of petrochemicals past that linger long after we’ve left this planet. New on #AnimalMatters, your home for hope in the age of crisis: giamora.substack.com/p/ghosts-of-...

A family of #raccoons lives and plays (very loudly, I might add) in the LA River behind my apartment. But as pets? I'm not quite sold...

The nonnative fish released by states that depend on fishing licences for all outdoor conservation efforts are considered 'naturalized.' Translation: Whether or not we see certain species as invasive "often comes down to what we value." www.vox.com/climate/4831... #AnimalMatters #Interdependence
These animals can cause big trouble. Why are states unleashing them by the millions?
Introduced species can wreak havoc on native ecosystems. Many states are flooding their waterways with them.

Last week #California AB867 was introduced to expand a ban on declawing from exotic cats to ALL #cats. Breaking the law is, unfortunately, just a misdemeanor, but at least it's a paw in the right direction for #AnimalWelfare.

Huge props to my home state!

"Wildlife crossings are growing in popularity across the country, and in recent years, #Colorado has emerged as a leader. Since 2015, it has built 28 new large game crossing structures."

Call me nuts, but shooting 450k barred owls that can breed with spotted owls sounds like environmental disaster in waiting. There has to be a more humane approach to invasive species that humanity has brought into an ecosystem. #EnrapturedByRaptors #AnimalMatters

A plan to shoot 450,000 owls — to save a different owl — could be in jeopardy
Federal wildlife officials approved a plan to cull barred owls in order to protect northern spotted owls, but it could be upended by funding cuts and congressional opposition.
