  1. 🦇🍼 A six year old Livingston fruit #bat recently gave birth while hanging from her thumbs with her pup hanging from just the umbilical cord.

    The 2024 event at the #Northumberland #Zoo marked the first time the birth of this #endangered #animal was caught on camera. With only 1,200 remaining in the wild, these are among the rarest #bats in the world.

  6. Small creeks are essential life feeders in forests. This small creek is a part of our local watershed. It is small, yet mighty with it's life-source; sustaining life for many cedar trees & the plants that grow on forest understory. Creeks need protection as much as big rivers do 💧🌲💧

  12. 🦅🐍 Researchers found that painting #wind turbine blades with patterns inspired by venomous #snakes significantly reduces #bird collisions.

    While standard white blades are often difficult for #birds to perceive, the biomimetic designs trigger a natural avoidance response. The simple visual modification offers a promising way to protect migratory species while expanding sustainable #energy.

  21. 🐏🐆 #WildlifeWednesday

    The current strategy to save endangered species in North America is to build back populations to a level that avoids extinction, then support stops.

    🐻 Three North American species: gray wolves, grizzly bears and bison are examples of how local restrictions after they reached minimal levels prevented the species to thrive.

    🪶 Restrictions also limit ability of indigenous people to maintain a cultural connection.

    📈 A better conservation strategy would be to measure success by creating a thriving population participating in its natural habitat. But this would require a new vision and policies.
