Did you know that it's ? And if there’s one thing we’re always wild about, it’s… WILDLIFE! But why is it important? As complex as our ecosystem is, the overall idea is actually quite simple: humans and animals are co-inhibitors of earth and we need to be respectful of just how fragile that bond is. From the smallest of bees to the largest of elephants, each animal plays a pivotal role in keeping our world spinning forward. 🌎

Beyond the pink color, flamingos also possess another distinct feature – their long-curved beak. However, did you know that their beaks don’t start this way as babies? In fact, flamingos actually are born with short, straight beaks that will gradually curve downward over time. 🦩
Happy !
