We welcomed 18 new citizen scientists to our Dolphin Research Team! This dedicated group completed a 2-day training workshop to prepare them to volunteer at our Dolphin Research and Outreach Station at Seawolf Park in Galveston. They will collect dolphin observation data from land and engage with park visitors to educate them about the effects of fishing debris on wildlife. This initiative is a part of the Galveston Bay Dolphin Research Program - a partnership between Galvetson Bay Foundation and the University of Houston-Clear Lake-EIH. Thank you to the Galveston Island Park Board of Trustees and Gulf of Mexico Alliance for their support!

Check out the article below that features an excellent piece on ocelot recovery🐆 featuring the great Sharon Wilcox 🤠
Wildlife Conservationist | Cultural Geographer | Conservation Social Scientist | Wild Cat Specialist | Explorer's Club Fellow
“When people are made aware of the cats, they’re enthusiastic about their presence,” Wilcox says. “We owe them this fair fight for survival.” I am so honored to have been interviewed for this excellent piece on ocelot recovery in National Geographic alongside a terrific cast of characters fighting for these cats’ survival in South Texas. As a professional geographer, having our work featured in National Geographic is a particularly sweet moment. Nat Geo had such an impact on my own worldviews and interests as a child— I never dreamed I would have the opportunity to play a part in one of these stories. Now back to the fight to save a spot for the ocelots. 🐆

A recent potential wolf sighting in Nevada had wildlife enthusiasts buzzing, but the mystery has now been solved through good old-fashioned science! Here are the fascinating details: 📸 In March, a helicopter crew spotted 3 wolf-like animals roaming near Merritt Mountain, sparking an investigation by the Nevada Department of Wildlife. 🧫 Biologists collected hair, fecal, and urine samples believed to be from the creatures for DNA testing at two independent labs. 🚨 The results? It was 99.9% certain that the "wolves" were actually coyotes, common residents of Nevada! 🐺 While disappointing for wolf spotters, the case highlights the importance of accurate species identification to protect ecosystems. This saga reminds us that nature often holds surprises, and sometimes, first impressions can be deceiving. Kudos to the wildlife experts for their diligent investigative work! 👏 Have you ever mistaken one animal for another in the wild?
