Human actions have led to the deaths of more than 100,000 Bornean orangutans since 1999, mainly for crop protection, bushmeat or the illegal wildlife trade.

For the first time in 15 years, researchers surveyed residents of Kalimantan, the Indonesian section of Borneo, to find out why people kill the great apes and whether conservation projects help protect them.

A post I made on FB about my favorite animals led to a whole lot of people realizing that pink fairy armadillos are an actual thing, and it is delightful to watch 😆

I guess I'm now spreading the gospel of the pink fairy armadillo. They are real, y'all.

#armadillos #animals #nature #cute

Pink fairy armadillo. A small, tube-shaped creature with soft beige fur on the underside, and pink sectioned armor on its back. Small black beady eyes, tiny pink nose, large pink digging feet. The butt is flat, and serves as a plug when the armadillo burrows into a hole.


Decided to be more active here, so let me reintroduce myself! I'm a zooarchaeologist researching #Farming and #Food of the past. I study animal and plant remains 🐐🌾, apply biochemical analyses 🧪, and want to use this knowledge of the past to contribute to #Sustainability today 🚜

Shyama is excavating a goat's skull dating to the Medieval Period. The walls are covered in hieroglyphics.


I'm now on Mastodon so time for an #Introduction post. Hi! I'm an archaeologist and I research our relationship with animals through time. I examine animal remains 🦴, do biochemical analyses 🔬, and study iconography 🎨 I work(ed) on 🐄🐖🐪🦌🦦 and plan to study many more!

This is a 440-pound heart from a blue whale, the largest known animal to ever exist. The heart was so large that technicians had to douse it in 1,000 gallons of formaldehyde. Read more about it here: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/painstaking-process-preserving-blue-whales-heart-180964038/

The media frenzy about shark bites is always over the top, given the very low risk, but this is a new one: the headline simply says "shark spotted near swimmers at Florida beach." In other words, the shark was swimming at home, bothering exactly no one. https://news.sky.com/video/shark-spotted-near-swimmers-at-florida-beach-12916154 #sharks #fish #animals #animalwelfare #animalrights

"The UK’s membership of a Pacific trade agreement will result in more deforestation overseas, endanger animal welfare and “make a mockery” of the government’s environmental commitments, campaigners have said."

Unacceptable. Public pressure DOES help, I really believe, and the octopuses deserve that from us. "The farm in Spain's Canary Islands would raise about a million octopuses annually for food, according to confidential documents seen by the BBC." https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-64814781 #octopus #cephalopod #Spain #animalwelfare #animalrights #plantbased #animals


what a wonderful photo! Anybody who loves animals as much as he seems to, has my huge respect. Many #animals give unconditional love
