I cannot believe the luck @katieannemc and I had hiking in Congaree Creek Heritage Preserve yesterday after work! I have looped this park many times searching for its elusive alligators but with no luck. Gosh, am I glad that I brought my camera along for yesterday’s mini adventure. We were lucky enough to spot two juvenile gators and one larger adult alligator all within 100 feet of each other.
This experience of searching for gators right in Columbia has successfully reminded me that patience is the most important commodity to pack when observing wildlife! #JourneyForWildlife

😬 What wildlife encounter would make your prett

😬 What wildlife encounter would make your pretty nervous?

🦇 Standing under millions of flying bats?
🦁 Having a lion pride walk right beside your jeep?
🦍 Hike to a gorilla troop in their forest home?
🐻 Watch brown bears catching salmon upriver?

Getting out and having a journey for wildlife has its risks, but every adventure if done responsibly can be full of wonder and discovery 🤩

Which wildlife encounter do you want to brave the most?

We have so much amazing wildlife to celebrate here in the United States, and some crazy comebacks too!

Once listed as an endangered species, American alligators were nearly wiped out due to hunting and habitat loss. With protection and the addition of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, their populations were able to rebound. By 1987 American alligators populations were stable enough to be removed from the endangered species list and continue to thrive today.

I’ve teamed up with Ranger @karli.m.s again! This time Karli is sharing her wealth of information on coexisting with native wildlife. From her experience working at @carowildlife 🦨 a rehabilitation clinic for native animals in Columbia, South Carolina. She has lots of tips to help you care for wildlife in need.

⚠️🐢 How did the turtle cross the road? Hopefully with YOUR help!

Springtime means egg laying time for female turtles! Sadly, human development has divided their land to make roadways faster for us. This leaves turtles to fend for themselves as they cross busy roadways to find a safe nesting place. Often crossings are only a one-way trip as so many turtles are struck by traffic.

See a turtle on or near the road? If it is safe for you, pull over, and help the turtle cross the road. Make sure to take the turtle in the direction they are headed. Do NOT relocate turtles or redirect them. Doing so does NOT help, turtles have very strong navigation skills, and this extra movement can put them in even more danger as they try to return to their original route.

Definitely Dutch daydreaming today with this beautiful spring weather. One of my favorite memories from the Netherlands was the window boxes in full bloom around every corner!
