So, what's a hellbender?

Hellbenders were once found across fast-flowing streams in the Eastern United States but have disappeared from most of their range due to disease, pollution, and habitat loss from agriculture, mining, and logging operations.  

The Wilds and the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium have partnered with the Ohio Division of Wildlife for more than a decade to raise and release young hellbenders into stream habitats, where environmental conditions have improved enough to support them!
