#Repost from our conservation friends at @oneprotest @download.ins --- Why The Lights Are Going Out For Fireflies Fireflies are in trouble. In 2019, the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation published a report on North American fireflies, warning that “populations appear to be in decline”. The three largest contributors to their decline are light pollution, habitat loss and pesticides. Believe it or not, fireflies have been around since the dinosaur era, dating back to over 100 million years! It is such a shame to know we could possibly be their demise if we do not change our actions, such as turning out your lights at night or switching to motion sensor lights and using less or no pesticides. . . . #StandUpForThoseWithoutAVoice #LightningBugs #FireFlies #FireFly #SaveOurWildlife #BeTheChange #MakeTheChange #OneProtest https://www.instagram.com/p/CAvjG0dhmED/?igshid=oh6lyyu82v6j

#Repost from our incredible conservation partners at @oneprotest @download.ins --- OneProtest is honored to have played a role in the recent rescue efforts that resulted in the seizure of 113 animals that were saved from nightmarish conditions at a backyard slaughter farm in Lee County, Florida. All of this was made possible through the incredible collaboration of Animal Legal Defense Fund and Farm Sanctuary. One Protest's Campaign Director Nicole Cordano and photographer Jim Abernethy @jim_abernethy of @Wildlifevoiceinc showed up to document and assist with the mission. A team of rescuers from five different Florida sanctuaries carried out heroic feats in the rescue and recovery of the 113 animals that were destined for slaughter. They are now in secure Sanctuary homes for the rest of their lives for the abused animals through the collaboration of @KindredSpiritsSanctuary, @CritterCreekFarmSanctuary, @Peacefield.Farm, @YesahcanSanctuary, and @ShelterFarmSanctuary.⁣ @vegan4fauna @animallegaldefensefund @jim_abernethy @Wildlifevoiceinc #StandUpForThoseWithoutAVoice #AnimalRescue #FarmAnimalRescue #FarmAnimals #EndFarmAnimalAbuse #SaveOurAnimals #Florida #AnimalAdvocacy #AnimalDefender #EndAnimalAbuse #JimAbernethy #OneProtest (at Lee County, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_seWPbhGE-/?igshid=p5r83axihsq3

Image by our founder @jim_abernethy Text by our wildlife conservation partner @oneprotest // Bears were once heavily hunted without regulation nearly killing entire populations, and it took years to get their numbers back up. Some States to this day still pride themselves on killing thousands of bears every year with an annual hunting season, aiming to kill more than the previous year. But that is not victory. That is nothing to be proud of. We must protect the creatures we almost lost once before, we must learn to coexist with them!

#Repost from our great friends and animal advocates @oneprotest @download.ins --- Spring Bear Hunting Has Already Begun In Some States When bear hunting in the Spring, hunters can inadvertently mistake nursing mother bears as males. If a mother is killed, cubs are left orphaned and stand little to no chance of making it on their own. Hunters also run the risk of miscalculating the size and weight of a bear, killing a cub instead of an adult. Many will argue that this does not happen, however these mistakes are commonly made.
