Meet the adorable snailfish 🐌🐟, the deep sea's little explorer that uses the fins on its chin to feel for its meals in the deep ocean depths. The deep sea is one of the most unexplored areas on Earth. We can protect this underwater wonderland together!

Rosa was an incredible ambassador for sea otters and a fantastic surrogate mom for rescued pups who are back in the wild, having pups of their own. She brought joy, empathy, and conservation awareness to millions of people. We're forever grateful.

Plastic pollution threatens the health of the ocean and people everywhere. The team at @montereyaq.bsky.social#GlobalPlasticTreatywww.montereybayaquarium.org/stories/path...#BridgeToBusan#ActOnPlastic

A pile of plastic bottles and other trash sits in a pile on a beach covered with pale, round, white rocks. There is blue water, blue sky, rocky shoreline outcrops, and a rocky island in the distance.
