A win-win, animal crossings make roads safer for wildlife and people

Worldwide, roads act as both death traps and barriers for wildlife, fragmenting the landscapes animals need to survive. However, ecologists and engineers are working to “reconnect the wild” through the strategic construction of wildlife crossings.

Is #palmoil truly #vegan? 🥦🍆 While it is plant-based, its production often leads to #ecocide 🔥#deforestation and #wildlife #extinction 🦧🐘 which makes most vegans reject it. Instead help animals and #BoycottPalmOil 🌴⛔️#Boycott4Wildlife

Check out those whiskers! This little harbour seal was picked up by my team in October. Found on a beach with a life threatening condition (mouth rot), he was uplifted and taken to a sanctuary for rehabilitation.

He has a special place in my heart as this was my first rescue. 10/10 perfect gentleman, didn't fight/bite me!

He was recently released into the wild, and is out there somewhere living his best life 🦭

Threats to conservation from artificial-intelligence-generated wildlife images and videos

"Three distinctive characteristics of contemporary society can exacerbate this issue: the pervasive use of social media, anthropomorphizing of animal behavior, and disconnection from nature."

Are there any #beetle specialists in the #fediverse? Had this in the moth box this morning. At least 4cm long (measured at 4, possibly 4.2cm) App says King Diving Beetle but they're quite rare round here. More likely Great, but I see gold edge rather than yellow and seems too big. Grateful for any assistance

I'm an evolutionary ecologist with a PhD who studies birds & who writes about all sorts of #science topics (links to these pieces will pop up here).

I think it's my duty to write about politics, such as #HumanRights #progressivism and #ecocide, as well as philosophical topics, such as #AnimalRights & #veganism.

I 'm an avid reader who writes #BookReviews. I'm #multilingual.

I live with a flock of #parrots.
