Deception Island (actually the rim of an underwater live volcano) was the site of a huge fur seal industry in 1819, but 1822 the seals were finished. In 1904 the whaling oil industry began and collapsed by the late 1920s due to over-supply on the market. Unfortunately, the industry also helped whale populations to collapse. Today, seals blithefully sleep near the abandoned seal and whale industry equipment. #Antarctica http://ow.ly/PaYr50Gs4Vc

Camas Lily (Camassia leichtlinii) These beauties are essential to pollinators, especially native bees. This flower was found at the Camas Prairie Centennial Marsh in Idaho. Along with gorgeous expanses of Camas lilies, the CPCM, which floods in the spring, is also an important resting and breeding ground for migrating waterbirds.

The elk was magnificent, big and strong. There were smaller elk in the herd - and females without deadly antlers. So, what did the wolves understand that a human witness could not see? http://ow.ly/ISOs50Gk8rL
In Yellowstoneโs Lamar Valley, a life-and-death drama plays out in front of Mark Seth Lenderโs eyes. Was the huge, stately elk caught unawares? How was one so perfect be caught? Will it survive? Are wolves killing for sport? Or did the wolves understand something the human eye could not perceive...

My reasoning is: that the baby was attracted to the silverback, and the silverback seemed to enjoy his presence. Having this opportunity to watch the baby and silverback is why I had to make this journey and experience one of the true wonders of nature.

A #wolf's life in the wild is not easy. For wolves in the Rocky Mountain regions, like this one in Yellowstone, harsh weather conditions, territorial competition from other wolves, and active hunting and trapping all conspire to keep their lifespan in the wild down to five years.

. Moose What are these moose doing?? They are โsmellingโ the air in the search of females ready to mate. They take air into their mouths where it connects with Jacobsonโs organ , an auxiliary olfactory sense. Lions, tigers, horses, zebra โ even your house cat โ all have this reflex. But the moose may be the most dramatic! From: The Definitive Guide to Getting Spectacular Photographs of Moose in the Grand Tetons by Jorn Vangoidtsenhoven Vango Photos

Look in the middle of the image and you will see a wave rushing in over the rocky beach caused by a chunk of ice that fell from a glacier into the sea. Photographer, Larry Blau, was saved from an unexpected cold bath when a waddle of penguins suddenly ran past him heading up the incline. Larry followed them to a safe height and snapped this image. http://ow.ly/mUQw50Gs4JR

Snowy Owl Flying: The wingspan of a snowy owl can stretch to 54 to 66 inches (137.2-168.6cm) The females are about 20% larger than the males. Except for their faces they are not pure white, but have a pattern of dark bars marking their feathers โ the females and young have the most patterning. The males are more white. Thanks to Gordon Ellmers for sharing is amazing photography of the Washington County, NY Grassland birds

๐๐ . Honoring the world's wildlife is not just about an animal or a species, it is a celebration of our world. Humans can exist because the interconnection of all species, from aardvarks to zoo plankton, create a green and blue world in which we can all thrive. We need every species.

Moose. When competing bull moose meet, they lower their heads and swing them back and forth, showing their antlers and hopefully, causing the weaker competitor to think twice before deciding to fight over the female. Those antlers can cause a serious wound โ and even death.

Antarctic seals and Snowy Sheathbill.
The Snowy Sheathbill is the only Antarctic seabird that lives on land โ and the only one without webbed feet. Six different species of seal call the Antarctic โhome.โ These may be Weddell seals, but there are also Antarctic fur, Crabeater, Leopard, Ross, and Southern Elephant seals living in Antarctica. Whoever these are, they seem to be luxuriating on the ice in the afternoon.
