16.01.2022 Up close and personal with a snow leopard Native to the mountain ranges of Central Asia, snow leopards (Panthera uncia) are notoriously shy and elusive. Thes...e cats are sure-footed climbers, using their long tails for balance and wide paws for traction in the snow. During summer months, they’ve even been spotted at altitudes of 6,000 meters! #EarthCapture by Philippe Matteini
15.01.2022 Consider the hedgehog. Tiny, rotund, bright-eyed and snuffling, they are shampooed for internet videos, fed saucers of milk by children, and have been immortalised by Beatrix Potter’s Mrs Tiggy Winkle. Of all the nocturnal mammals one may encounter poking through the backyard at night, they are surely the most beloved. But in New Zealand, these small, trundling, spiky creatures are killing machines. New Zealand is a hedgehog paradise. Whereas in Europe they are hunted by pine martens, foxes and badgers, New Zealand’s hedgehogs have few predators. Unchecked by the food chain, they meander blissfully through forests and gardens, hoovering up an astonishing number of native creatures.

11.01.2022 In 2011, when the global population hit 7 billion, economist David Lam and demographer Stan Becker made a bet. Lam predicted food would get cheaper over the next decade, despite continuing population growth. Becker predicted that food prices would go up, because of the damage humans were doing to the planet, which meant that population growth would outstrip food supply. Becker won and, following his wishes, Lam has just written out a cheque for $194 to the Vermont-based nonprofit Population Media Center, which promotes population stabilisation internationally.

09.01.2022 Exciting update! In partnership with NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, we've released a further 38 threatened Greater Stick-nest Rats or ‘Stickies’ to ...the feral predator-free fenced area at Mallee Cliffs National Park the largest safe haven of its kind on mainland Australia. The sociable Stickies have been observed working together to build tall elaborate nests out of sticks and stones. To date, 4 out of 11 regionally extinct species have been restored to Mallee Cliffs and the Pilliga State Conservation Area, as part of the NSW Government’s Reintroduction of Locally Extinct Mammals Project.

08.01.2022 Taiwan’s Sun Moon Lake is so low that parts of it have dried and turned to grass. Jetties that normally float are sprawled awkwardly on dry land, and tour boats are crowded at the tail ends of pontoons still in the water. Usually one of the island’s most famous tourist destinations, the lake has recently become a star of a different kind. Following the worst drought in 56 years, it is now famous for all the wrong reasons. These days, Instagram influencers photograph themselves posing in a dust-coloured, dinghy half-buried in a cracked and cratered lakebed.

07.01.2022 Each summer, at the new moon when the sky is at its darkest, eels along Victoria’s coastline start disappearing into the ocean. After living in fresh water for decades, they are returning to the place they were born. They can even travel short distances over land to reach a waterway that will carry them out to sea. This distant migration confused the eel-curious for centuries and led to some bizarre theories about where they come from Aristotle thought eels spontaneously generated.

03.01.2022 Fast-forward to a sobering parallel: I am in lockdown with my family over in Italy. Six of us are confined to our apartment; space to empty our bins into the communal ones outside is limited. I walk into the kitchen one morning to be confronted by our mountain of plastic refuse. Empty water bottles; food packaging. It is terrible. Also, this is just for one family. Our family. It prompted some deeper thinking from me about how we consume. And I couldn’t shake the thought; if ...everyone else in the world is doing a similar thing admittedly to varying degrees then we are all going to be in trouble. It was a Pandora’s box moment, but the thought-bees that came buzzing out were about excessive consumption, plastic landfill, mountains of disposable fashion. (And, to add to this newfound eco-anxiety, literal bees are themselves under threat in some parts of the world.) See more
