Say it with us: Earth Day is 👏 every👏 day! 👏
Sure Earth Day is tomorrow... but the work... happens every day!
Meet some of Earth’s (often ignored) ‘underfrogs,’ 💪 the lesser-known species that keep vital ecosystems running. ✨ Pick your species and share the love—link 🔗 in bio to join Re:wild!
🟢 At Re:wild, we work alongside Indigenous Peoples and local communities to protect and restore these species—and many others—and the places they call home. Teamwork makes the wild work!

🐺 It’s #EndangeredSpeciesDay, so naturally we’re honoring the five decades of care, science, policy, and persistence that made recovery possible under the U.S. Endangered Species Act.
From near-extinction to the path of recovery: every species in this carousel is still here because people like you care a whole lot. Restoring habitat, enforcing protections, and conservation is a long-term commitment, not a short-term promise.
Not every species featured here has fully recovered or has even been delisted, and many still depend on the Endangered Species Act today, proof that this work is far from over, but critical not only to these individual species but to the ecosystems that depend on them.
🌎 We stand with the scientists, land stewards, and frontline defenders who continue this work every day...often quietly and under immense pressure, but always with care for the living world.
For over a millennia, the Blackfoot People lived along side the American Bison until both were forcibly displaced over a century ago.
Bison were hunted to near extinction by the U.S. government as a method to starve and control Plains Tribes like the Blackfoot who were being forced off their lands and onto reservations.
Bring Them Home follows a small group of Blackfoot who are working to right these historic wrongs by returning wild American Bison to their lands – an act that would heal people, re-enliven traditional culture and bring economic opportunity to their community.
This film charts the course of this struggle from past to present – from the near-annihilation of American Bison and the Blackfoot People to the origins of the effort to restore wild American Bison and the present-day threats to Blackfoot culture.
It closely follows the Tribal members who have given their lives and hearts to this struggle for the betterment of their people and is an intimate look at the willpower and resilience it takes to survive and thrive in the face of near-continuous hostility.

🌊 Saving Chile’s vital kelp forests 🐙 Re:wild partner @rewildingchile , an offspring organization of @tompkins_conservation , is leading a megatransect survey in one of the largest intact kelp forests on the planet.
Across 6 expeditions, the Rewilding Chile team will travel over 700 miles (1,200 kilometers) to study and protect Patagonia’s kelp forests. This marine ecosystem is home to hundreds of species and is known to be one of the most efficient natural carbon sinks on Earth.
🌿The forests of Giant Kelp can reach up to 262 feet (80 meters).
🌿They are able to absorb up to 20x the amount of carbon as forests on land.
🌿They create biodiversity-rich environments and provide essential carbon to the entire food web.

This work is made possible with the support of The Ecological Restoration Fund and The Plum Foundation, alongside leading specialists from Chile and around the world.
🦬 “If there’s no environment, there’s no human race,” said Ted Turner, one of the planet’s boldest conservationists. His remarkable life and conservation legacy live on in the landscapes he helped restore and the species his work protected. 🌾
From helping protect millions of acres of grasslands across North America to restoring American Bison herds and championing environmental action on a global stage, his vision helped bring conservation into the mainstream and inspired generations to think bigger about what’s possible. 🌎
Today we reflect on Ted Turner’s philanthropy, storytelling, and relentless belief in bold action. He helped drive meaningful conservation progress that will benefit people, wildlife, and ecosystems for generations to come.
🐺 The wild is wilder because of Ted!
Good News: Last year, five lost birds were documented for the first time in over a decade!

🌿 Colombia has declared a new refuge: Estrella Hídrica de Caldas!
This new protected area safeguards nearly 60,000 acres (23,972 hectares) of cloud forests and alpine ecosystems. Home to over 880 plant and animal species, including Critically Endangered orchids, 🌸 Estrella Hídrica de Caldas also protects vital headwaters, providing clean water for more than 250,000 local people. 💧🌱
🟢 This exciting milestone was made possible through the collaboration of @andesamazonfund , Re:wild, @bezosearthfund , and local partners—including @naturecultureinternational , @corpocaldasoficial , @instituto_humboldt , and @mas_biomas_oficial — showing how collaboration can protect critical ecosystems around the globe! 🌎

They carry forests in their stomachs. 🌿 They move across borders that divide their habitat. They’ve been keeping ecosystems connected for millions of years.
Baird’s Tapirs are more than a species—they’re a force for regeneration.
This World Tapir Day, we’re celebrating the work of @BairdsTapir , a powerful network of partners across Mesoamerica working together to protect tapirs and the forests they sustain.
Re:wild is proud to support this collaboration.

Do you have an eye for the wild? Well, you’re in luck. The @flowtrip Photo Contest has been extended until Monday, 11:59:59 PM ET.
A portion of your submission fee will go to @rewild .
@rewild protects and restores the wild—from species on the brink to the ecosystems they call home. Rewilding is about more than recovery; it’s about rebuilding the relationships that allow nature to thrive. Re:wild works with Indigenous peoples, local communities, scientists, and partners to act at the scale and speed this moment demands. With an approach rooted in collaboration and driven by the idea that nature, when given the chance, can heal itself—and sustain all life. Because restoring the wild isn’t just about saving nature—it’s about securing a future where all life can flourish.

Have you ever heard of a lemur census?
In the forests of Madagascar, counting lemurs is a vital tool to help protect Critically Endangered species. Findings from local Malagasy partner, Association des Guides Andasibe, have confirmed that habitat quality determines lemur population health.
In a study supported by @ageofunion and @rewild , Malagasy researchers counted lemurs in the Mahatsara Forest, where 13 different lemur species are found—including Indri, Diademed Sifaka, and Black-and-white Ruffed Lemurs. This intact ecosystem currently sustains larger lemur populations and is an example of successful community-led conservation.
Association des Guides Andasibe works to restore degraded habitats, monitor lemurs, and educate local communities on the importance of healthy ecosystems.
Together, all three organizations are dedicated to ensuring that all lemurs are accounted for and protected!
