Did you know that puffins can carry around 10 small fish 🐟 in their bill at a time? Even though these small birds weigh in at just over 1lb, they need to eat around 40 small fish per day to stay healthy.
As true love birds, puffins are monogamous, and in most cases will stay with their mate for life.❤️

Did you know that the red wolf had nearly vanished from the wild in the 1970s, reduced to just 14 animals? Thanks to @ptdefiancezoo and other groups, this species has been brought back from the brink of extinction. ❤️

It`s reported that 100 million sharks are killed each year for their fins. That`s one shark every three seconds.
By donating (link in bio) to The Zoo Society`s Dr. Holly Reed Wildlife Conservation Fund, you are actively making a difference. This fund currently supports multiple shark conservation programs. One is the tagging and tracking of female scalloped hammerhead sharks to better understand their habitat and behavior, while the other is a collaborative effort with @maralliance to develop education strategies, curriculum and community engagement to foster stewardship for sharks and other marine animals.

FUN FACT FRIDAY!
Did you know walruses can sleep in the water? They come equipped with pharyngeal pouches - inflatable sacs on their throats 😯. These pouches can fill with up to 13 gallons of air which creates a pillow that hold the walruses vertically in the ocean, keeping their heads above water 🌊. Isn`t nature amazing?!
