Can’t believe today was our last #ees028 class. Thank you so much @LehighEcology !

It would cool bringing back these animals in Pleistocene parks but there could be problems with it. #iceage #ees028

Reintroducing populations to North America offer huge conservation and cultural benefits. #rewilding? #ees028

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

What if we were able to reintroduce large wild animals back into the landscape in North America? These large animals could be similar to wild horses, camels, lions, and even elephants! #rewilding? #ees028

One of the reasons for the everglades slightly losing its water is due to a road being built through the heart of the Everglades nearly 90 years ago. #everglades #ees028

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

The wetlands are drying out which is a major problem. However, with decades of efforts, restoration efforts are starting to work and are delivering more water to these everglades. #everglades #ees028

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

An example is St. Francis satyr. These butterflies thrive in these bases because of their explosions. These butterflies need disturbance for their populations to survive. #militaryecosystems #ees028

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

Military bases have the highest density of threatened and endangered plants and animals of any federal land, even more than national parts like Yellowstone. They're now home to more than 425 threatened and endangered species. #militaryecosystems #ees028

This seed vault is to make sure we are able to allow for diversity if we lose a plant species. #ees028 #seedvault

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

To think that there is a massive vault built to store hundreds of millions of seeds from all over the world. It is a global seed vault that was built just encase all the crops of the world were wiped out. #ees028 #seedvault

We lost the last male northern white rhino a year ago in 2018. Sudan the rhino suffered a leg infection which led to him being euthanized. He was unable to reproduce with the two other females. #ees028 #RIPSudanRhino

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

The Copenhagen Zoo did not want to castrate him because he would be taking up space for genetically more valuable animals. #ees028 #zoo

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

If you don't have the right genes, you may be put down. The Copenhagen Zoo put down a young male giraffe named Marius to avoid inbreeding. Its carcass was fed to lions after a public autopsy. #ees028 #zoo

Peanut butter pellets with vaccines are dropped by drones to help the dogs beat a plague that is destroying their populations. #ees028 #ferretdrones

[Tyler Nguyen @TylerNguyen22]

Usually we say its raining cats and dogs when its raining really hard. For prairie dogs, it can literally be raining peanut butter. #ees028 #ferretdrones
