Hi. I'm Kobuk, and I like oranges. 🍊
Fun fact: #bears are omnivores. The bears at AWCC love fresh fruits and vegetables like grapes, lettuce, avocado, and sweet potato!

We are heartbroken to share that the walrus calf patient passed away this morning. Though our teams worked tirelessly to provide critical care treatments, never leaving his side, the calf ultimately succumbed to his condition.

Nā ‘Āikane O Maui Cultural Center has burnt down. It was a gathering place for Cultural Groups & Kīpuka for our Lāhui - everyone was fed & no one was ever charged. Cultural artifacts, and a safe gathering and educational space for our people has been lost. #LahainaFire

❗Wildlife Response Patient Update❗

The fur seal patient is now weighing in at just over 9 kgs, eating well, and has lots of energy! Despite doing well, she is still abnormally small for her age.

It's #CephalopodWeek! 🥳🐙
Perfect time to introduce you to our newest octopus, Goji. Goji is a giant Pacific octopus, which is the largest species of octopus. She is only 10 pounds, but will likely grow to be over 50! Stop by to see her in our Northern Pacific Gallery.

We said goodbye to Hopper last night💔
Nothing helped her worsening pain. Her regular and 🇨🇦vets agreed we were beyond what Librela could fix. We had a great last night - paddled, swam, and Hopps ate a whole XL Hershey bar. She was the heart of the squad & we are lost without her

More than 28 species of salmon and steelhead are listed under the Endangered Species Act, including those supported by the Snake River. Any “solution” to restoring them to thriving status that doesn’t involve breaching the Lower Snake River Dams is no solution at all!
