A beautiful, festive reminder that entanglement remains an issue for cetaceans all year long. Around 640,000 tonnes of fishing gear is lost or abandoned worldwide each year, accounting for around 10 percent of all marine litter. Supporting sustainable fisheries is a great way to help ensure this number decreases. ⠀ You can help reduce marine debris by celebrating a sustainable holiday season and appropriately disposing of our waste all year long. Whether it's composting, recycling, or simply putting something in the garbage these small actions can have an exponentially big impact on our oceans. ⠀ #whaletales #talesofsavingwhales #greenchristmas⠀ Posted @withregram • @akris.painting ENTANGLED IN COSTA RICA • In collaboration with @innoceana 🐋 • I’m honoured to be able to raise awareness about this issue with my art. Watch now the documentary on https://buff.ly/3IT5rvn 🎥 and donate to support their work!⠀ ⠀ 🔹Ghost gear is a current lethal threat to marine life. Up to one million tons of fishing gear are lost in the ocean every year. According to the International Whaling Commission #IWC more than 300.000 #cetaceans die annually due to #entanglement in fishing gear. And they are not the only ones: sea turtles, sharks, rays, birds… and the list goes on.⠀ ⠀ @entangledincostarica @mcecinnoceana⠀ ⠀ #akris #akrispainting #akrisworld #ghostnetart #ghostnets #redesfantasma #costarica #humpbackwhale #yubarta #entangled #artivism #whaleart #artforconservation #marinelife #marinelifeconservation #watercoloranimal #watercolorart https://www.instagram.com/p/CXjTsWvsNTY/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lions usually hunt and eat medium-sized to large hoofed animals like antelopes,impalas, zebras. Even though lionesses do most of the hunting while the males just sit and watch, once an animal has been caught it’s the males that are always first to feed. Lions are good at working together to catch their prey, but they are terrible at sharing and will fight over their food. Often smaller, weaker lions go hungry, while the others are first to have their fill. Depending on the size of the kill, they may not get anything at all. {LION , LIONESS & THEIR PREY, IMPALA} #workinprogressart #lionscupture #lionartwork #liondiorama🦁 #artforconservation (at Nairobi, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaFjbAHK6v1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hello wildlife artists and conservationists meet my niece Giannah, a young wildlife artist in love with @olpejeta wildlife especially Rhinos and Elephants.. Getting children involved in arts early will equip the next generations with tools of creative problem solving. There is no right answer in art, so you are able to come up with your own unique solutions, great for the newer generation that will be tasked with fixing our environmentally problematic legacy. Creating art allows us to look inward and express ourselves. We can develop our own ideas and express ourselves to the world, to speak for what we care about.

Sometimes the best way to engage communities in conservation action is through a technology that has existed for thousands of years: art. Conservation doesn’t always have to be flashy to successfully engage the community. Sometimes the tried and true— paintbrushes, pencils,paper or canvas—are the best way to reach out. With a little out of the box thinking, everyone can walk away having learned something important about preserving the environment they share. #artforconservation #artists #wildlifeconservationsociety #wildlifeconservationist (at Nairobi, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYv27OOqxUT/?utm_medium=tumblr
