Ticks can be as small as a poppy seed. There are five ticks in this photo. Can you spot them? Learn more about protecting yourself from ticks when enjoying your national forests and grasslands: https://t.co/k1W5HuH4MX.
🚩 Have you seen a captive animal in distress or showing repetitive behaviours?
Captivity is nothing like life in the wild. Limited space, unnatural social groups and constant human presence can cause suffering.

Absolutely horrendous!! Especially when she’s been offered a FREE transfer to a sanctuary among many other offers throughout the years. A beautiful and peaceful retirement she’s earned from the @CityofEdmonton ! SHAME ON YOU!!!
🚨City Council, what more do you need? Central Park goers are crying and hugging after seeing this traumatizing death for all involved.
Pass Ryder's Law NOW and ban horse carriages before another horse dies! We'll be outside City Hall tomorrow demanding an end to this!
Statement from Council Member @ChrisMarteNYC and Voters For Animal Rights President Julie Cappiello:
“This Thursday, Council Member Marte will introduce Ryder’s Law, legislation to transition New York City away from horse-drawn carriages and toward a safer, more humane future.
The death of a carriage horse in Central Park tonight is a heartbreaking reminder that this system no longer works — not for horses, and not for the workers whose livelihoods depend on an industry facing an uncertain future.
Horses are living beings who deserve dignity and compassion. They should not be forced to navigate the noise, traffic, and demands of New York City streets.
New York City can protect animal welfare while supporting the workers who depend on the horse carriage industry. As we push to end horse-drawn carriages, we are committed to ensuring workers have a fair transition, economic security, and access to new opportunities.
We look forward to working with TWU, the City Council, and all stakeholders to develop a workforce program that supports affected workers and their families.
Tonight’s tragedy was heartbreaking — but future tragedies are preventable.
It is time to pass Ryder’s Law.”
People from around the 🌍are calling for @YEGMayorOffice to finally end 🐘 #Lucys captivity for good, & to close the @CAZA_AZAC loophole that the zoo have exploited for decades, to keep a social Asian🐘alone.
#YegZoo is not about conservation it’s a business.
