Today we honor our colleagues who died in a helicopter crash on Saturday while conducting bighorn sheep aerial surveys in Brewster County. Dr. Robert Dittmar was the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department’s first-ever staff wildlife veterinarian.

Congratulations Peter on your newly published Frontiers article: journal.frontiersin.org/article/549570…

This is an incredible tragedy.

Sadly, these stories resonate with me and my career. Progress has been made, but there is still a long way to go. This includes the behavior of women with each other. Lets help each other and not act as if there can only be one woman on the mountain.

Absolutely! It is a must see film to understand what it takes to be a female scientist in academia, government, or the private sector.

I am so proud to have supervised Mr. Alex Troutman when he worked at Padre Island National Seashore. This impressive young man was a joy to work with and is already making a difference in this world, inspiring diversity in the fields of conservation and marine biology.

Good luck with you great work Dr. Catherine Hart! I cannot wait for the 2021 Kemp’s Ridley nesting season. #RidleysRule

Thank you to those who come through to help at critical times like these. So grateful for this generosity and partnership.

Thank you to the U.S. Senate for your confirmation vote today. As Secretary of US Department of the Interior, I look forward to collaborating with all of you. I am ready to serve. #BeFierce

Nesting season has begun! If you see a sea turtle on the beach call us immediately at 956-243-4361. #endangered #kempsridley #conservation

I highly recommend watching this movie on April 14. Understanding the painful and damaging overt and subtle forms of discrimination is the first step in improving behavior and creating a better work environment that enables all to contribute and succeed.

Congratulatuons Drs. Mansfield and Seney! So glad you got a little Ridley. No one loves to look at turtle gut and poop contents more than Erin and I!

On this day in 1973, the Endangered Species Act was signed into law. Over the past 48 years, it has helped preserve plants and wildlife for future generations. From the bald eagle to the American alligator, we are thankful for the species this law has helped recover and save.

My work has allowed me to connect with individuals from all over the world, facilitate conservation, and study of sea turtles now, & for future generations to come. Donna Shaver, DIR, Sea Turtle Science and Recovery Division Padre Island N.S. #WomensHistoryMonth #PeopleofInterior

Our public lands are vital to threatened and endangered species conservation and recovery. I pray that managers would all understand their responsibilities under ESA, agency policies, etc. and to preserve and protect for future generations.

Kempy sleeping soundly with his paws in the air, normal for him when sleeping soundly and all is right in the world for him. This time of year he gets tuckered out spending all day hunting unsuccessfully for gophers in our back yard.
