A new list of the 25 most threatened primates has been published by the International Primatological Society, which held its 30th congress in Madagascar in July.
More than 40% of primate species are classed as endangered or worse. Some species are absent from the latest list thanks to an improved outlook, but others have been displaced only because of the deteriorating situation for others.

Forest Guard by Bambang Wirawan
Sumatran tiger, Indonesia, 2021. The world’s tiger population has declined by 95% over the last hundred years, mainly as a result of deforestation, which is drastically reducing their territory, and poaching. In Indonesia, the sub-species on the islands of Java and Bali have become extinct, and only the Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) remains, with fewer than 400 individuals left in the wild.

The closest thing I have to a donkey for #asstodon is this photo of a Przewalski's horse I took in 2002 at the #Smithsonian's Conservation Research Center.
These endangered horses were never domesticated because their first impulse when someone climbs on their back is to stop, drop, and roll—immediately crushing whomever was hoping to oppress them.
I feel like there is a lesson here for us all in this time of #facism.

Hope for the Ninu by Jannico Kelk (Australia)
The winner of the impact award shows a ninu, with the wire grass and shrubs behind it providing a frame against the darkness.
The greater bilby has many Aboriginal names, including ninu. It was brought to near extinction through predation by introduced foxes and cats.

I wanted to post this for just good news. But life is only giving me lemons this year.
The good is we've seen the highest count of Devil's Hole Pupfish in a quarter of a century! And I have a pin! And you can also have this pin. I love fish and everyone should love them too.
I also am now buried in vet bills after - a place- took advantage of me. So shopping appreciated.
