The vividly colored candy darter has been protected under the Endangered Species Act, with over 300 miles of streams in Virginia and West Virginia also proposed for protection. This federal decision follows a petition and litigation by the Center for Biological Diversity and its allies.

The darter has vanished from at least half its range, primarily due to pollution, competition, or hybridization. Although first identified as needing federal protection in 1982, action was delayed. The Center sued the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 2015 to secure a court-binding decision, ensuring this imperiled animal finally receives the help needed to avoid extinction.

After the Trump administration stripped federal protections from gray wolves, states now control their fate. While California and Colorado celebrate new wolf residents, Wisconsin, Idaho, and Montana are increasing wolf culling.

Our "Saving Life on Earth" webinar on July 8, 2021, featured our experts discussing ongoing efforts to regain wolf protections and how you can help. Learn more at saveourwolves.org.

The #KeepOceansFishy event recently highlighted the Gullah/Geechee Seafood Festival, held last month on Hunting Island, SC. This initiative draws attention to the remarkable history and heritage of the Gullah/Geechee people.

Residing on the Sea Islands of the Southeast coast, the Gullah/Geechee have sustained treasured West African traditions and a unique way of life since European colonization. Their profound cultural impact on our coast is undeniable.

Learn how to help protect Gullah/Geechee seafood traditions and ensure our oceans remain vibrant and fishy.

Amid global crises, we still have good news to share. This year, significant gains have been made for wild plants and animals. We've defeated pipelines, secured protections for endangered wildlife, and ended a decades-long battle over a disastrous water project in the West.

These victories are a testament to collective energy, creativity, and tenacity. Join us in celebrating these successes in the fight for a livable planet. Our Nevada director, Patrick Donnelly, and North Carolina attorney, Perrin de Jong, will share their strategies for success.

A crisis is unfolding off the U.S. West Coast as migrating whales become entangled in Dungeness crab fishing gear. Once entangled, whales drag heavy traps and lines for weeks or months, enduring severe wounds.

These entanglements cause deep cuts, infection, and disease, making it difficult for whales to swim, feed, and breathe. This often leads to their death. Join Oceana to help protect whales from these deadly entanglements off California, Oregon, and Washington.
