🐕 NEW: In mid-2025 three young male African wild #dogs left their pack in #Kafue National Park, #Zambia, and over nine months traveled 4,126 km, the longest recorded dispersal for the species.
#GPS collars tracked their route through unprotected land and back toward their sisters. who were killed in wire snares on private property. Half the tracked dispersing groups ended in snare deaths, and researchers call for protecting #wildlife corridors.

Mapping Flood Agents In The Northern Pantanal Wetland Using Multiple Spatio-Temporal GIS And Remote Sensing Techniques

“Combining MODIS data, TRMM, river discharge, a digital terrain model, and multinomial logistic regression, [the authors] identified three predominant classes of flood origin: local rainfall, bank overflow, and mixed areas. The model achieved a Nagelkerke Pseudo-R² of 0.63 and a classification accuracy of up to 81.2% (10-fold cross-validation). To the best of [their] knowledge, this is the first explicit approach to mapping flood agents for this wetland, a component that has historically remained unmapped despite its recognized influence on habitats and biodiversity…”

“The mapping of functional hydrologic units is crucial for enhancing our understanding of flooding and hydroecological processes in large wetlands. These units are typically defined by flooding frequency, duration, and magnitude, but another important hydrologic characteristic is the origin of flooding, known as the flood agent. This study presents an empirical framework utilizing remote sensing and GIS procedures for modeling flood agents in the northern Pantanal wetland. Eleven spatial data layers were derived from multi-year MODIS flood maps, daily rainfall estimates from the TRMM 3B42 grid, in situ discharge data, the BEST Digital Terrain Model, and a hydrographic network layer. These layers were tested for their predictive power in a multinomial logistic regression mapping model. Model performance metrics, along with qualitative validation of mapping outcomes using in situ flooding measurements, and vegetation and soil data from field test sites, support the plausibility of the proposed mapping scheme. However, they also highlight the challenges of flood agent mapping in large tropical wetlands…”

The #CowichanRiver #estuary is one of the largest & most important in #BritishColumbia. The #watershed drains 90,000 hectares & provides #CriticalHabitat to dozens of #fish species, including #steelhead, #Chinook, #chum, #coho & #PinkSalmon, as well as brown, #cutthroat & #RainbowTrout. But the #Cowichan’s troubles are by no means unique; they are a #CaseStudy for a much larger problem.
#TimberCompanies store #LogBooms all along the #BCcoast, says Jamieson Atkinson, a fish #biologist & program manager for the #Aquatic #Research & #Restoration Centre at #BritishColumbiaConservationFoundation. “It’s shocking.” While #estuaries make up less than 3% of British Columbia’s coast, they provide rich #habitat for 80% of the province’s coastal #wildlife. The #FraserRiver estuary, near #Vancouver on the mainland, supports more than 300 species of #birds & 80 species of fish & #shellfish for at least part of their life cycles.
