  1. Scavenger animals are the missing link in Australia’s bird flu response. Three experts explain

    "There are currently five confirmed or suspected cases of the H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b strain in Western Australia, alongside one in South Australia and one in New South Wales."

    "We want to protect our native scavengers, while limiting the harm introduced scavengers may do to our ecosystems. Our bird flu response must prioritise the health and management of scavenger animals. Only then can we protect our animals, ecosystems and communities from a wider H5N1 outbreak." >>

  9. Je me souviens avoir vu ce truc complètement weird il y a des années sans savoir c'était quoi. Ça m'avait complètement chamboulé, dégoûté, impressionné, émerveillé...

    J'y ai repensé de temps en temps, mais je ne savais pas le nom donc j'avais jamais tenté de le retrouver. Jusqu'à ce que ce soit mentionné brièvement par hasard dans une critique d'un jeu de société. Juste par la description floue, j'ai tout de suite reconnu la vibe. Je suis content de l'avoir enfin retrouvé!

  17. Turkey Vultures (Cathartes aura) have stomach acid so strong they can safely eat carcasses tainted with anthrax, rabies, or tuberculosis. By cleaning up carrion, they prevent disease spread and keep ecosystems healthy.

  20. @Natteheks That reminds me of one of my all-time favourite childrens' books when I was young, "Nature's Smallest Gravedigger". I still have it, so here are some photos from it.

    It is all about the life of the American burying beetle, *Nicrophorus americanus*, and, remarkably, it was one in a whole series by Golden Books called Nature's Sanitation Corps.

    The book was written by Victoria Cox and Stan Applebaum with illustrations by Dorothea Barlowe and it was published way back in 1974. My Nana gave it to me in 1977 (yes, I'm old).

    I still think it's a marvellous book. I like how all the illustrations are accurate depictions of the animals exactly as they are, not simplified down and sanitized for children.

  36. Scavenger (Ecology 🏞️)

    Scavengers are animals that consume dead organisms that have died from causes other than predation or have been killed by other predators. While scavenging generally refers to carnivores feeding on carrion, it is also a herbivorous feeding behavior. Scavengers play an important role in the ecosystem by consuming dead animal and plant material. Decomposers and detritivores complete this process, b...

  37. I really liked Scavengers Reign. Really beautiful, profound, heartfelt and I'm craving more. It's upsetting and bittersweet that it's on HBO given what they did to Infinity Train. I don't think they have the reverence to handle these properties, and the creators the way they should, and consumer-trust has been broken.
