Help! The person on this film stole our Wildlife camera that was monitoring the Burrowing Owl family in Casa Grande.
If anybody knows who this is or why they would want to steal a camera that is protecting burrowing owls can you please let us know.
These cameras are funded out ...of my own pocket to protect the Burrowing Owls. It's very discouraging to think that somebody will just take them and stop that conservation effort without contacting anyone.
If you have any information, please let us know
If you would like to see some more burrowing owls conservation, our efforts are done so through public gifts
It's pretty sad that we have people in the community that I'll do such a thing. I hope we find whoever this person is and they have some reasonable explication.
If you would like to make a contribution towards getting a new camera in place and or helping with more conservation, a link will be in the comments along with the family that we were watching over that no longer has protection thanks to this wonderful person that took our camera away without asking
Thanks โค๏ธ๐ฆโค๏ธ
This is what teamwork looks like ๐ค
Farmers, owls, rehabโall of us showing up and figuring it out together.
Casa Grande Commodities found a whole owl family during a hay move, and instead of pulling them out, we worked together to keep them right where they belong.
...Thatโs the goal. Not just rescueโbetter outcomes. Keeping families together, keeping owls on the farm, and making the situation actually make sense for everyone.
Really grateful for CGC and for Wild at Heart Raptors for always being part of the bigger picture.
Happy Earth Week ๐

These situations move fast. Materials, travel, installsโit all adds up.

When you travel and see different foods.... we will then understand that we live in an industrial food system. Biodiversity in plants and food is as important as the biodiversity of animals. Life exists in biodiversity โฅ๏ธ๐ฆโฅ๏ธ
We try to keep as many babies with their parents as possible. We build nesting for them. We work with communities and teach poison free pest management. We sell owl habitats and help people create native pollinator gardens. Please stop using poison, stop hiring people to use poison. You're ...killing your owls and it's making rodent problems way worse. Thank you so much. Bonus points if anybody can spot where the Hershey kiss is in this picture? I can't make this stuff up. #Pestmanagement #greathornedowl #wildlifeconservation #hersheykisses

It rained for five minutes and we picked up two electrocuted birds the next day at two separate nesting locations and we didn't find the nests/babies at either location. As we expand on the power grid, it's important that we do so responsibly, and that means taking care of our old lines ...as well. In my experience, The lines only get fixed when the birds get reported... but it has to get reported properly. Wildlife, getting shocked on power poles causes expensive damage to electrical equipment, home electronics, and when animals are shocked... they can also start brushfires. Small plastic guards that insulate the equipment save a lot of time money and Wildlife. These are simple fixes that can be done through simple reporting tools that can be found on our website and LinkedIn our bio. This bird unfortunately did not survive. We may not be able to help the ones we pick up, but we can report incidences to protect future wildlife generations. Thanks friends! #wildlifeconservation #volunteer #lineman

Ok I'm putting my gardening skills out there. I don't use any bug spray. I very rarely use herbicide and I beat the crap out of my plants some days.... but that's the beauty of planing native vegetation... or just letting it do its a own thing like this volunteer brittlebush. I love ...her... and all the babies she produces. Follow me for more plant tips. #wildlifeconservation #sonorandesert #brittlebush
