Wake up, it’s Endangered Species Day!
The protected waters of the National Marine Sanctuary System provide safe haven for many endangered species, such as Hawaiian monk seals. By helping create safer habitats, the National Marine Sanctuary System gives endangered species the opportunities they need to regain a foothold.
Learn more about endangered species and this upcoming, monumental anniversary:

#TGIF Endangered Nubian /Rothschild Giraffe ❤️ 🦒 A tender moment after a Rothschild’s giraffe nursed her calf at sunset. The Nubian giraffe is rare and one of the most endangered subspecies of giraffes. The largest population found in Uganda, followed by Kenya. This lovely shot was taken at Lake Nakuru NP in Kenya by #wildographer @haojiang00629 #Wildography #wildographyandsafaris #giraffe #babyanimals #tender #love #wildlife #endangeredspecies #giraffes (at Lake Nakuru National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqMFSOUsD2v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Bee World: Challenges & Hope 🐝
Are bees endangered? Yes! 🚨 Bees face habitat loss, climate change, and pesticides. Honey bee decline affects our food supply. But there's hope: Stingless bees thrive. Learn bee conservation and join us to protect vital pollinators!

🦋Where does the Madeira brimstone (Gonepteryx maderensis) get its common name? Its fiery yellow hues match those of the element sulfur, once known as brimstone! ⛰️This butterfly lives in the steep mountains of the Madeira islands, where it spends much of its time high in the canopy of evergreen laurel forests, called laurisilva. Unfortunately, it’s endangered due in part to urban development that has led to habitat loss. The life cycle of Madeira brimstones naturally limits their population growth: adults can live for several months—a long time for a butterfly—and there is likely only one new generation each year. What’s more? Their caterpillars feed on just one type of tree. But there may be a bit of protection: Madeira has a vast nature preserve, and remaining laurisilva areas are now officially protected in a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 📸The Museum's upcoming special exhibition Extinct and Endangered: Insects in Peril, opens on June 22 and will feature uniquely powerful macrophotography by Levon Biss (@levonbiss) highlighting 40 incredible but imperiled species from specimens in the Museum's world-class research collection, including the Madeira brimstone, in large-format photographs, some as large as 4.5 by 8 feet. Link in bio for more details!

Polar bears aren't actually white - their fur is transparent. The hair of a polar bear looks white because the air spaces in each hair scatter light of all colors.

Thursday, May 18 at 12 pm Hawaiʻi / 3 pm Pacific / 6 pm Eastern
Hawaiian monk seals, ʻīlioholoikauaua, are the world's only tropical seal and one of the most endangered marine mammals. These unique seals are native to, and only live in the Hawaiian Archipelago. The biggest segment of their population resides in the remote islands and atolls of Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. NOAA’s Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program works throughout the populated main Hawaiian Islands and the Monument to understand the biology of monk seals, what they need to survive, what threatens their survival, and how to help. Join one of the program's ecologists, Dr. Stacie Robinson, as she shares the latest status updates and research.

In a remarkable turn of events, the Auckland Island Rail, once thought to be extinct, was rediscovered in the second half of the 20th century, marking a significant milestone for ornithology and conservation efforts. This elusive bird, known for its secretive nature, was first identified in the 19th century but disappeared from scientific records between 1893 and 1966.
