Death trap: Killing Australian wildlife with everyday items
"Flying foxes make up two-thirds of all entanglement cases in NSW"
"But it’s not just flying foxes – entanglements affect hundreds of different species, mostly mammals and birds, including kangaroos, platypus, raptors and gliders....Hungry animals, especially flying foxes, birds and possums, are attracted to flowers and fruits, and get easily caught in “large-aperture” nets, where the mesh size is greater than 5mm. The rule of thumb is that if you can poke a finger through it, it’s not safe for wildlife."
"Aquatic debris makes up about 10% of entanglement cases, according to NSW wildlife rescue data. Fishing line is probably the most difficult type of litter for platypus to cope with, and causes horrendous injuries – it basically just cuts through the skin.” >>

* Barbed wire
is a severe threat to Australian wildlife. Tens to hundreds of thousands of native animals—including flying-foxes, gliders, koalas, and birds of prey—die or are severely injured each year after becoming entangled on the barbs.* "Wildlife-friendly fencing
plays a vital role in allowing safe movement of native animals across the landscape, helping to reduce injuries, fatalities, and habitat fragmentation. Encourage wildlife friendly fencing in your local area. Each year thousands of animals face a cruel death entangled on barbed wire fences."Make your fencing wildlife friendly
Avoid barbed wire
Reduce tangle hotspots
Increase visibility >>

This could happen anywhere in Australia:
Biodiversity conservation going to the dogsSomewhere in crowded suburbia is a small creek with a bit of bush left behind by accident. It is a refuge for swamp wallabies, blue wrens and many other species of the biodiversity kin.
‘User groups’, that is locals and their dogs demand that the last bit of green is for their ‘recreation’ and not Australian flora and fauna. Pet owners allow that their roaming dogs destroy the last small fragmented refuges where native wildlife can survive.
Recently a council voted to fence dogs out of the park "to manage the growing dog population in the municipality." There are “problems with dog behaviour…They (swamp wallabies) are threatened and chased and killed by dogs.”
Anger and vandalism followed. Local pet owners demand to "make the park off-leash for dogs.” The dispute requires 'conflict experts’ from outside to get involved.
In a place where everything is 'dog friendly’ and where half of Australian households own at least one dog, they implicitly ‘voted with their paws’ to be 'wildlife unfriendly'.

Proudhon said property is theft, but Claude tells me that property is violence.
Which one is correct? Why not both?

Heat-affected wildlife on a burning planet
"When our animals are heat-stressed, they are also severely compromised, so we see a spike in other issues as well, like vehicle collisions, entanglements and injuries."

Few animals scare full-grown African elephants. -- But bees are among them.
So it was to bees that
#Iain #Douglas-#Hamilton looked when he sought to draw a line between the pachyderms’ domain and humanity’s.The farmers of Samburu, the Kenyan county where his research was based,
bore elephants no ill will as long as the beasts kept out of their smallholdings.But the elephants did not know that.
#Bee #fences—hives established at regular intervals on a farm’s perimeter—not only deterred the interlopers, they also yielded a mellifluous profit.
