  1. @clacksee well good luck to you all up there. The beavers were reintroduced in NL a couple of years ago, and now they turned into a threat to our dams and dikes. The first ones have been shot recently. #NatureReserves

  2. Willington Wetlands: "home to the first beavers back in Derbyshire after 800 years. They enjoy access to the whole of the 40 hectares of wetland habitat. The wetlands are also teeming with bird life all year round and dragonflies and damselflies are plentiful here too. "

  3. Concern for noise-sensitive exotic animals near new airport's flight path
    By Danuta Kozaki

    An exotic wildlife carer is concerned aircraft noise from the soon to open Western Sydney International Airport could impact the wellbeing of her retired circus animals and nearby native species.

  4. #Greenwashing isn’t excluded from poorly designed #CarboOffset schemes in Australia and a lot more needs to be done to make them work as they are intended to. I know that. But some people are just dead set against leaving a planet that can be habitable to future generations, to satify their short term self-interests and political agenda.

    Opposition to a projct which involves native reforestation alongside reduced grazing land (and in this case other ‘agricultural’ production) on whatever grounds sure seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

    Government handouts to make #ClimateAction happen isn’t a zero sum game. In our current #NeoLIberal economic climate, that is what govt have to do to lower emmissions and save ecosystems for the greater good. It would be better if govt declared whole swathes of Country off limit to exploitation forever, but some nutters would bring up #cultural (whose culture?) and #historical (whose history?) loss as well as loss of productive agricultural land (whatever that means if clearfelling, pesticides, herbicides and fertilizer are all required to make it so). I won’t even talk about the economic and ecological folly of growing meat on the hoof at industrial scales.

  5. #Wales - #RSPB buys 'magical' 96-hectare landscape to reconnect #habitats

    by Oscar Edwards, July 11, 2026

    "A charity has bought a 96-hectare upland area of Gallt-y-bere in the hope of reconnecting two landscapes that are home to rare habitats and wildlife.
    RSPB announced the purchase of the
    'vital missing link' located by the banks of the #RiverTywi in #Carmarthenshire.

    "The area falls between two separated parts of the bird conservation charity's Gwenffrwd-Dinas nature reserve in the Elenydd, it said.

    "The move will allow conservationists to reconnect the fragmented landscape for the first time in 60 years, allowing #wildlife to move across the different areas and build stronger, more diverse and #sustainable #ecosystems."
