Orangutan in Malay means person of the forest. There are 3 species: Borneo, Tapanuli and this one, Sumatran. The indigenous Dayak people tell an old legend thatย it was originally human who pretended unable to speak and climbed up trees to escape having to work.

With the curtailing of commercial whaling, the Fin whale has been on the rebound. The IUCN Red List has reclassified the species from endangered to vulnerable. We love these wildlife success stories!

โ€œA magpie, seeing some light-colored object conspicuous on the empty slope, flew closer to look. but all that lay there was a splintered peg and a twisted length of wire.โ€

Have you heard of puddling?

Butterflies and other insects do this to suck up moisture and nutrients from the mud.

Meet the diamondback terrapin! In the spring, these turtles mate in our waters, then female terrapins come on land to lay their eggs in sandy areas. If you spot them, give them space so these eggs can safely hatch in late summer/early fall.

A moorhen chick explores our Wildlife Pond, closely followed by one of its parents!

Moorhens will often hatch two broods a year, and it's not uncommon for older chicks to help feed their younger siblings and protect them from predators.
