Three eastern screech owls stolen from their nest as eggs are now serving a new purpose — teaching children why wild animals belong in the wild.

The Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center has welcomed a new eastern screech owlet, and is using the opportunity to remind Virginians not to cut down trees unless it is absolutely necessary!

In honor of National Love Your Pet Day, we decided to take a look back to when Virginia got its own state dog!

The Wildlife Center of Virginia announced on Monday that they have released seven of their black bear yearlings back into the wild over the course of April.

We love our pets, but sometimes, we don’t always understand what they want. They may not be able to speak, but we can get information based on their body language. Recognizing their signals is key to understanding their needs and emotions.

Watch these videos of a baby polar bear from the Detroit Zoo experiencing snow for the very first time. This little bear, who has a twin, was born at the Detroit Zoo in January to 8-year-old Suka and 16-year-old Nuka. Suka has give birth twice in the past few years, but unfortunately, those baby bears did not survive. This is the first time a polar bear has been born and raised in the Zoo in more than 15 years. The twin polar bears don’t have names yet, but they are doing just fine and adjusting to this new life.
