Today is World Turtle Day 🐢❤️ #worldturtled

Today is World Turtle Day 🐢❤️ #worldturtleday was created as an annual observance to help people celebrate and protect turtles and tortoises and their disappearing habitats around the world.

With 8 million tonnes of plastic dumped in our oceans every year, these amazing creatures are under threat. 🐢 six out of seven species of marine turtle are threatened with extinction.
🌊 8 million tonnes of plastic end up in the world’s oceans every year. Plastic pollution is a major threat to sea turtles. 😟 one sea turtle out of two has ingested plastic - often mistaking it for food such as jellyfish.

You can help our precious sea turtles by joining the fight against plastic pollution. Find out about Wildlife Queensland’s Single-use Plastic Free Queensland campaign and how you can help reduce single-use plastic waste 👉

TODAY IS WORLD BEE DAY! 🐝😃.
The main purpose of #worldbeeday is to spread awareness of the significance of bees and other pollinators for our survival.
In a special report on Australian native bees, Wildlife Australia Magazine - WAM Summer 2019 edition looked at how vital bees are to our natural future, as well as to future agriculture. .

Have you ever seen a glider glide? Check out this amazing video of a beautiful yellow-bellied glider gliding 🥰🥰 The yellow-bellied glider, also known as the fluffy glider in FNQ, is a nocturnal and arboreal gliding marsupial and the largest of the four Petaurus gliders that occur in Australia.
It is an extremely accomplished glider and can cover great distances rapidly. Glides of over 100 metres by adults have been recorded, but are usually between 40-90 metres.

Find out more fascinating facts about this glorious glider here 👉 https://wildlife.org.au/yellow-bellied-glider/ .

HOW TO BUILD A NEST BOX 🧰

Natural tree hollows are declining due to the pressures of urbanisation and land clearing. You can provide a supplementary hollow and help protect wildlife in your area by installing a nest box.
They’re fun and easy to build with our handy guide to Building and Installing a Nest Box. And just look at one of the many possible little visitors you could attract! 😍

Posted @withregram • @jonohooper92 Wallum Sedgefrog (Litoria olongburensis) - vulnerable.
The acid frogs on the Sunshine Coast have had a great breeding season thanks to consistent, large rainfall events. Many hundreds of recently metamorphosed frogs were counted along monitoring transects this week.
There are so many colour variants.
