What Is This Magic?

Via Seattle Aquarium - now, the aquarium didn’t want to just show you a cute picture, they wanted to tell you this:

If you’ve ever been to the Seattle Aquarium, you’ve seen the impact of policy that protects vulnerable species.

Sea otters (like Mishka here) were once on the brink of extinction with as little as 1,000–2,000 otters remaining in the U.S. population. Now, thanks to laws like the Endangered Species Act (ESA), sea otter populations are recovering—but that could change with recent threats to this vital legislation.

Currently, the ESA has saved 99% of species listed on it from extinction. Let's make sure it stays that way. Contact your federal legislators in both chambers of congress and urge them to protect and strengthen the ESA, not weaken it. We've made it easy with three simple steps and a template to follow when contacting your representatives.

I’ll contact my reps if you contact yours!
