Animal of the Week: The Zebra. Did you know there are 3 species of zebra? Grévy’s (narrow stripes), Plains (bold stripes) and Mountain (grid-patterned rump). One of these species is endangered. Can you guess which? 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #animaloftheweek

Marineland may divide its beluga pod, sending some to Nova Scotia and others to China. They should stay together in a sea pen within their native waters, not be exported into lifelong captivity. https://t.co/auMHvFaGBn 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #belugas #marineland

Our focus remains on the 30 Beluga Whales at Marineland, but today, on #WorldReptileAwarenessDay we also honour our cold-blooded friends. From sea to sand, every creature deserves to live wild and free. 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild

30 belugas stranded at Marineland, Canada urgently need assistance. We are working with a team of marine biologists and whale experts over the weekend to find a solution. More to come. https://t.co/zIA8TYjpwn 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #marineland #captivitykills

Marineland is collapsing & 30 beluga whales could pay the price. Canada must NOT bail out cruelty. The only right path is to move these whales to sanctuary and ban cetacean captivity for good. https://t.co/ye7xUni4bf 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #captivitykills #marineland

Animal of the week: The Beluga Whale! ~30 Belugas are trapped at Marineland in Canada. Without funding or relocation, the park is threatening euthanasia. Since 2019, 20 whales have died there. It's time for them to be free. 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #animaloftheweek

100s of caged animals in zoos, aquariums & private collections are having to be rescued from conflict zones in Ukraine, Israel & Gaza... or die from neglect. Please, help us get them out: https://t.co/fAQhjbkn1g 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #donations #fundraising

Marineland is asking Canada for money to care for its belugas and threatening euthanasia if it doesn’t get it! In our opinion, there should be no bailout. Only rescue and relocation 🐋 https://t.co/6b6FNAjZCx 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #marineland #freethebelugas #beluga

Sri Lanka sentences “Ali Roshan” to 15 years + Rs20.6m for illegal 🐘 trafficking. A powerful precedent but rescued 🐘s deserve more than sanctuary behind bars. FTW is ready to support policy reform & reserve creation! https://t.co/INyqtg87U0 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild

Animal of the Week: The Impala! Graceful, common & often overlooked. They are vital to Africa’s ecosystem because they are, unfortunately, the ultimate prey item... even large baboons, eagles & pythons will take them! 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #animaloftheweek

What are we not seeing in zoos? From elephants & great apes to captive lions & tigers, secrecy continues to mask neglect. Do zoos still have a place in today’s world? https://t.co/3ZbEaIqnJK FTW 🧡 #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #opinionpiece #transparency

From private menageries to zoos and circuses, for centuries, captive animal shows have shaped how we view wildlife. Times are changing, but far too many animals remain trapped in outdated tradition. https://t.co/OC4jj1d3QM 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #opinionpiece

Lions, and all animals kept behind bars, suffer more than words can describe. Their fate is intrinsically tied to the facilities and people that keep them. Please support our mission to end the suffering today: https://t.co/fAQhjbkn1g 🧡 FTW #ftw #ftwglobal #freethewild #donate
