The Center for Biological Diversity is suing SpaceX to prevent the acquisition of 715 acres within the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge. This vital public land in south Texas is home to endangered ocelots, rare migratory birds, and Kemp’s ridley sea turtles.

SpaceX rocket launches have already caused significant environmental damage, including falling debris and harm to wildlife. A 2024 study documented damage to every monitored shorebird nest after a single launch. This lawsuit aims to protect the refuge's wildlife from further suffering due to a harmful land giveaway to a trillionaire-owned corporation.

The Department of Homeland Security has waived environmental laws to fast-track border barriers and roads through Texas' Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. This construction threatens to damage roadless canyon country, block river access, fragment vital wildlife habitat for black bears and bighorns, and pollute Big Bend’s iconic night skies with artificial light.

Our organization is already in court to halt these plans and access public construction records. An advocate condemned the administration's "disgraceful" disregard for public lands, vowing to protect this "crown-jewel national park" and the Rio Grande.

Bruce, a kea parrot native to New Zealand, lost his upper beak at a young age. Despite this, he has become the dominant alpha male of his community, known as a "circus," exhibiting unique preening and fighting skills.

A study in *Current Biology* (Grabham et al., 2026) suggests Bruce achieved his alpha status by winning all 36 interactions. He also displayed low stress hormone levels, received priority access to food, and was uniquely assisted with preening. This research highlights his resilience and unique abilities.
