Hello all!My name is Chelsea and I'm a 23 year old living in Texas with my Fiancé! Growing up I've always had an undeniable love for animals of all species and that's kind of why I'm here! To share my love and passion with many of you that truly care about animals as much as I do. I'm pursuing English Literature and aspiring to become a well-known Author! I do have other blogs but this one will be focused more on the Animal Kingdom and endangered species! I am fundraising for World Wildlife Fund because I want to protect the future of nature. I am trying to bring awareness to endangered tigers and fundraising to help put a stop to their endangerment and help them thrive once again! Here is my link: wwf.worldwildlife.org/goto/actiontosavetigersIf you have any questions, please message me!

Here are actual statistics and estimates of some of our Big Cats Population: • Tigers - Before the 20th Century there were about 100,000 in the wild and today there is an estimated 3,200-4,000. By 2022 they could be completely swiped from Mother Earth. • Lions - A century ago there were 200,000 lions in the wild. Today there are only about 20,000-30,000. • Cheetahs - In 1975 there were only an estimated 14,000 cheetahs. Today there are only an estimated 7,100 and it may decline 53% in the next 15 years. • Snow Leopards - There are only about 4,500-7,500 left in the wild. • Jaguars - An Estimated 15,000 wild Jaguars to this day. • Iberian Lynx - In 2002 there were only 100 left in the world but thanks to conservations efforts there are about 404 living in the Mediterranean forests of the Iberian Peninsula. Mind you this is just some of the Big Cats that are going extinct. Share to spread awareness! wwf.worldwildlife.org/goto/actiontosavetigers

Like other larger cats, snow leopards hiss, growl, moan, and yowl, but they do not roar. (video by Mike Wilson)

Silent extinction: There were an estimated 200,000 lions living in the wild in Africa a century ago. Today, there is an estimated of fewer than 30,000 lions living in the wild in Africa today. Even some believe that the estimates are actually much lower, putting the wild lion populations at as few as 20,000 left.

There are only an estimated 3,200-4,000 left in the wild. In just over a century we have lost 97% of our tiger population leaving us with only 3% wild tigers. We must be vigilant and protect these beautiful creatures before they become extinct. Extinction is forever. wwf.worldwildlife.org/actiontosavetigers

Endangered Baby Crocs Fly to Cuba from Sweden
Cuban crocodiles born at the zoo at Skansen, Stockholm, are being flown to Cuba, to help the country’s efforts to re-establish the species in the wild.
Skansen has bred Cuban crocodiles for three decades and more than a dozen babies are born at the zoo each year and transferred to other zoos around the world. Now officials in the creatures’ native land are hoping to reintroduce the rare animals back into their natural habitat.
Director of Skansen’s aquarium Jonas Wahlström is scheduled to fly from Sweden to the Cuban capital, Havana, in ten days’ time, accompanied by ten of the snappy reptiles, according to Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter. The animal is the world’s rarest species of crocodile and only exists in the wild in a small swampy area in southern Cuba…

The sun bear’s powerful claws are built for tearing into termite mounds and rotten wood in search of grubs and insects to eat. But this bear also has a sweet tooth; in Indonesian and Malay they’re also called “beruang madu”, literally meaning “honey bear”. Sun bears are known to love honey, and will fearlessly tear open bee hives to get it. They have an exceptionally long tongue, up to 25 centimetres in length, meant for lapping honey and grubs out of crevices and insect nests.

This is Una. She is currently staying at SeaWorld Orlando’s manatee rehabilitation center in one of our critical care pools. The white slatted floor is a hydraulic false bottom which can be raised in order to bring the animals up out of the water for medical treatment with minimal stress. Thanks to the tracking and observation efforts of the Manatee Rescue and Rehabilitation Partnership, we know quite a few details about her life.
This isn’t her first time at SeaWorld. She was rescued as an orphaned calf in 2003, weighing in at 170lbs. At a weight of 980lbs, she was released at Blue Springs State Park with a few other manatees in 2006. She has been seen with a calf of her own, which is very exciting. However, she also suffered from at least one boat strike. She recovered and was left with five propeller scars on her back. Around 90% of manatees have wounds from boat strikes. The scars are used by scientists to identify individuals. Eventually, Una shed her tracking device but was still spotted regularly and easily recognized by the “A5” ID marking on her tail. In late November of 2016, she was discovered to be severely entangled. Both of her pectoral flippers were tightly wrapped in monofilament fishing line which had cut deeply into the tissue almost to the bone. This is what happens when people toss tangled up fishing line overboard or just let wads of it blow away. Please recycle monofilament fishing line properly.
If you’d like to visit Una during her recovery, come see the Manatee Rehabilitation Area inside SeaWorld Orlando adjacent to the sea turtle habitat. The park is currently caring for 18 manatees. An adult manatee can eat around 200lbs of wet vegetation per day, and the little orphans are bottle fed specialized formula every two hours around the clock. Rescued patients need radiographs, ultrasounds, endoscopies, daily medications, tube feedings, wound care, and complicated surgical prodecures. SeaWorld of Orlando, Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo, Miami Seaquarium, and the Jacksonville Zoo are the only facilites permited by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service as designated manatee hospitals. Your visit funds the care of these sick and injured manatees and other rescued wildlife.
The Florida manatee was recently reclassified as “Threatened” (Previously “Endangered”), but the species is far from recovered. They still need all of the protection and support we can provide. “Not endangered” does not mean “not in danger”. If you are a Florida resident, please always vote for legislation that protects and benefits manatees.

This year, Wolf Haven was excited to see a litter of eight red wolf pups born to the parents who had a litter here in 2016 also. We are part of a captive-breeding program for critically endangered red wolves. There are fewer than 50 left in the wild (in Alligator River National Refuge in North Carolina).
