Do you remember winters being snowier when you were a child? You're not wrong. Southern New England is losing snow cover faster than almost anywhere else. To protect the local landscapes we love against climate change, we must take immediate action. https://t.co/A1duwfU5UL

Trumpet just turned 38! 🎂

Trumpet is our second-oldest Atlantic #HarborSeal + is the mother of Chacoda and Cayenne. You can tell her apart from the other seals by the light grey spots on her belly! The other seals have dark spots or no spots at all.

#HappyBirthday, Trumpet!

When you think of pollinators, do bats come to mind? Some species of bats are important pollinators of plants like agave, from which tequila is made. Next time you have a margarita, toast our flying friends.
