Recherche loup et coexistence désespérément D’après des images exclusives, un des louveteaux du plateau de Millevaches a disparu, mort naturellement ou braconné. Sur place, la situation reste explosive.

Ma série sur les loups du plateau de Millevaches pour @lesjours.fr se termine avec des nouvelles de la meute, du déclassement de l'espèce et des espoirs de coexistence.

The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Merci Stéphane !

Qui veut la peau du grand méchant loup ? Face aux attaques de troupeaux sur le plateau de Millevaches, les appels à tuer le prédateur, légalement ou illégalement, fleurissent. Une vraie fausse solution.

Quand c’est flou, c’est qu’il y a deux loups Les peurs et les fantasmes, les preuves et les attaques… En un an, un couple de canidés a concentré sur lui toutes les tensions du plateau de Millevaches.

A guy out in the desert scrub who looks like Napoleon Dynamite uses a jeans-wrapped pole with a hiking boot on the bottom to "step" on a rattlesnake.

Hahaha, I love this photo of a snake nerd researcher from the Phoenix Herpetological Society using a fake leg to step on rattlesnakes & see how likely they are to bite. He "stepped" on 175 of them, and was bitten by only SIX. Snakes desperately want to just get away! 🐍🧪

EU court upholds ban on deep-sea fishing in Atlantic Experts say the ruling is likely to have a positive impact on other legal cases on bottom trawling happening across the EU.

Good ocean news that a legal effort to overturn a ban on bottom fishing gear in 87 areas of the Atlantic continental shelf has failed.

These areas are now closed to all bottom trawling and dredging as well as bottom set longlines, gill nets and pots.

En Corrèze, alerte aux louveteaux sur le plateau Quatre petits sont nés au printemps. Les naturalistes appellent à empêcher leur élimination, tandis que les éleveurs voient ressurgir des peurs ancestrales.

Return of wolves to Yellowstone has led to a surge in aspen trees unseen for 80 years Gray wolves were reintroduced in Yellowstone National Park in 1995 to help control the numbers of elk that were eating young trees, and it is finally paying off for quaking aspen.

Just came across a 2003 paper that stated that "all conservation needs could be readily met through only moderate reductions in military spending." We're further away from global conservation goals than ever now.

At right lies a large spiral galaxy that is nearly a ring, with bright golden core. To its lower left is a smaller spiral with a barred core. At top and bottom, two bright stars shine brightly with multi-colored diffraction spikes emanating out. In the background, hundreds of galaxies are just smudges of various colors.

This is figure 2, which shows Bogong moth navigation under natural night skies.

A paper in Nature suggests that the Australian Bogong moth may be the first invertebrate known to be able to use the stars to navigate. Experiments in flight simulators indicate that the insects use stellar cues to help them fly in the right direction. go.nature.com/3ZEaDgG 🧪

Exclusive: Inside the thriving wild-animal markets that could start the next pandemic Live-animal markets are a natural laboratory for viruses to evolve and spark deadly outbreaks, yet scientists lack support to study the risks they pose.

Wildlife trade acts as a vast global network of unregulated natural laboratories,with ample opportunities for viruses to circulate & evolve to become more dangerous

We can either turn a blind eye or try to understand & mitigate the risks

Latest satellite data shows a massive 22% drop in penguin numbers over the last 15 years in key regions.

This is more than double the rate of loss that experts had expected...

Proposed simplification of EU chemicals legislation masks deregulation Undermining vital legislation will harm people, the environment and the economy — not to mention citizens’ confidence in the bloc.

Europe’s competitiveness and citizens would benefit from stronger chemicals rules: close the info gap, phase out harmful substances, and ensure proper enforcement.
