💕Looking for post Valentine’s Day romantic advice?💕
Take some from the wreathed hornbill! Not only will they pair-bond for life, but they’ll even court each other by sharing meals. And once they have settled down together the pair will go to great feats to raise their offspring. Quite the amazing couples!

Help out a sea lion and buy sustainable seafood!
With changes in ocean temperatures food sources are moving further off shore making it more difficult for sea lions to find a meal. Download the @seafoodwatch app to do your part today!

Meerkats are known for their daring diet of venomous snakes and scorpions! Thankfully they have a built in immunity so the venom is less effective to their bodies.
