So Long Sonar!

This awesome picture of a Pacific Blue whale is courtesy of NOAA fisheries!   The United States Navy has made me a fan once again, with this latest move to save the lives of so many of our threatened and endangered Ocean wildlife. Over the past few years in this very Blog, I have written ad nauseam about […]

Lovely Leatherback~

Gone is Forever

A Green Sea Turtle Hatchling Photo credit: Manuel Heinrich Emha   As someone who has in the past,  been  fond of deep-fried shrimp, as of today, it is off of my menu, forever! I try very hard to be a vegetarian, but alas, shrimp was a guilty weakness, but now, no more. In my mail this morning was […]

Hope for a New Whale

A Bryde’s Whale Picture credit: Sophie Webb NOAA   Just found this awesome story this morning in my email that must be shared. Russell McLendon of Mother Nature Network has gathered and presented an extremely compelling work and you simply must read it in its entirety. Please see the link to it below. If the DNA checks out, […]

Saving Sharks~

A Nurse Shark Picture credit: Joseph Thomas   With every story written, I read your words, I feel your pain, it is my pain as well. Like me, you suffer through every terrible bit of news about who and what is being done daily, to  innocent animals all over the world, and as one of […]

Their World, Their Future~

ARKive – Images of Life on Earth Picture credit: Animal World   As  the world celebrates a New Year, my thoughts are as usual,  focused on animals. Recently there has been a lot of reflection and or controversy about the ESA, the Endangered Species Act turning 40 and whether or  not it is, gasp, still necessary. Merely writing these […]

Whales Rule!

                                The critically Endangered North Atlantic Right Whale Picture credits: NOAA   For entirely too many years,  the most Endangered Whale on our planet,   the North Atlantic Right Whale,  has had to endure endless red tape battles just to survive in their home waters of the Atlantic Ocean. They have […]

Crime Pays!

Is fining them really going to stop their illicit behavior or shut them down? This man in California has been dealing with Floridians, to sell poached […]

Injustice In Japan

        Dolphin picture credits, left to right:  public domain, truncates and NASA.   As I  sit here admiring my new ” Winter”  mouse pad and still feeling the warm glow from our visit over the weekend to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium,  my first email this morning has turned my stomach and filled me with outrage. Right now, I […]

Lagoon Lunacy?

A bottlenose dolphin in Florida waters Picture credit: NOAA   On our news this morning was a brief story about the suspected cause of all the recent bottlenose dolphin deaths along the Atlantic Coast, including our own Indian River Lagoon. The conclusion reached and reported, was that the dolphins had possibly contracted a virus. Although, […]

But, that beautiful image is in grave danger of becoming only […]

Plastic, You’re Outta Here!

Plastic trash on the Beach in Hawaii Picture credit: NOAA   I have been wanting to address this Issue for months and with this announcement today,  it is now time. The city of Los Angeles, my home for over 30 years, who is continually at the forefront and  frequently a leader in cutting edge everything,  has just […]

Three Months Later

Breanna and I take a walk with other cancer survivors   It is difficult to believe that it has only been three short months, since this adventure with all of you started here. And, what a journey it has been. When this Word Press Blog was begun, there was nothing to prepare me for what was […]
