- Each summer, thousands of beluga whales find sanctuary in Hudson Bay's estuaries, where warm, shallow waters provide safety for nursing their calves. Photographer Martin Gregus Jr. (@mywildlive) encountered this pod beneath the tannin-stained waters and found that, despite the limited visibility, they could navigate with astonishing precision as the calves weaved in and out of one another.
- In a quiet act of deception, this orchid queen bee waits for the perfect moment to assert her reproductive dominance. #NatGeoQueens is now streaming on @disneyplus.
- In Etosha, Namibia, elephants depend heavily on scattered waterholes, which serve as gathering points during the dry season. Competition for these resources can be intense and influence how herds move across the savannah. This elephant enjoys a moment of pure relief as it sinks into the cool water.

- What has transparent hair, black skin, and built-in swimming goggles? That's right, it's a polar bear—and it has five facts to share with you. Find out more about polar bears at the 🔗 in bio.
- These worms (Tubifex tubifex) are found in the Sulfur Cave, located between Greece and Albania, alongside gigantic spider webs that are home to more than 110,000 spiders. They live in the sediment of the cave's sulfidic stream, feeding on the biofilm that consists of sulfur-oxidizing microorganisms. Where most caves are characterized by food scarcity, the microorganisms that these worms feed on contribute to the chemosynthesis process that allows the cave's complex ecosystem to thrive. Discover more about this cave's fascinating ecosystem and what researchers are learning about webs inside it at the 🔗 in bio.

- In the vast, sun-scorched Namib Desert, the Namaqua chameleon survives against the odds. It shifts its colors not just to blend into the sand and sparse vegetation, but also to regulate body temperature—darker in the morning to soak up heat, lighter in the midday sun to stay cool. With its sticky tongue and specialized feet, this tiny desert expert hunts insects and moves with deliberate precision, a master of survival in one of the harshest environments on Earth.

The researchers described it as “an extraordinary colonial spider community” that's part of a complex and thriving ecosystem involving the colony, midges and their aquatic larvae, and the biofilm that coats the sediment in the nearby stream. Discover more about what scientists are learning about these spider webs and others at the 🔗 in bio.

- What does it take to capture one of National Geographic's Pictures of the Year 2025? For Nat Geo photographer Fernando Faciole, it meant trudging through Brazil’s dense Atlantic Forest to set up his elaborate camera traps. He then returned every 45 days to check on the traps, all while contending with armies of ticks. In the end, his efforts were rewarded as he captured a stunning image of the region’s elusive jaguar.
