A tourist who drew widespread condemnation in Hawaii after a witness recorded him chucking a coconut-sized rock at “Lani,” a beloved, endangered Hawaiian monk seal off a Maui beach, was arrested Wednesday by federal agents. Igor Mykhaylovych Lytvynchuk, 38, of Covington, Washington, is charged with harassing a protected animal, the U.S. attorney's office in Honolulu said, adding that National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration special agents arrested him near Seattle.

There is no amount of money, oil, or gold that is worth more than having bees, trees, and clean water.

It’s #EndangeredSpeciesDay! These important animals are a stunning example of biodiversity – and essential to the ecosystems they are part of. As the protections they rely on face ongoing attacks from the U.S. government, let’s stand in their defense: oceana.ly/3QUMoJp

With a Strong El Niño imminent, concern grows for life on the Galapagos. El Niño is a natural cyclical phenomenon but it can be devastating to the #Galápagos Islands. In the 1982-83 event 77% of the penguin population did not survive. 97% of the shallow water coral perished. That’s because cold water upwelling and nutrients are shutdown, as warm water invades the eastern Equatorial islands. This animation explains how it works! #elnino #stem #science

"The truth is: the natural world is changing. And we are totally dependent on that world... It is the most precious thing we have, and we need to defend it." Happy 100th birthday to Sir David Attenborough, whose stories transformed how we view and understand our Earth. 🌍

He has reminded us of the beauty of the Earth and how fragile Earth really is from the insatiable demands of humans “Every breath of air we take, every mouthful of food that we take, comes from the natural world. And if we damage the natural world, we damage ourselves.” David Attenborough
