Check out our @RGS_IBG#SandMining video - Lost Lands - highlighting the very significant issues accelerating mining is having on lives & livelihoods across the great deltas of the world. Thanks to @andybell_ for incredible cinematography 👏 really bringing home the impacts 😢
Likely causes are the extremely warm water temperatures in the Lake Tefé (up to 40 °C), but also lake sedimentation, the very low water levels and other potential factors still under investigation
Los delfines de río tienen alrededor de 4 millones de años y en tan solo unas décadas, las actividades humanas han causado daños graves a estas especies. El delfín rosado ya está en peligro de extinción🚨. Abrimos hilo⬇️

Por más de 20 años, científicos de Latinoamérica hemos trabajado para proteger a los delfines de la Amazonia. Ahora logramos tener los resultados de nuestras expediciones en un solo mapa interactivo. Vayan a https://t.co/pH6YJHqWNi y jueguen con los datos.
Esta actividad fue implementada en colaboración con WWF y la Fundación Van Tienhoven, y se desarrolló en el marco de SARDI (Iniciativa Sudamericana para los Delfines de Rio).
Act now or it will be too late for the #vaquita. After 30 yrs of warnings, @iwc_int Scientific Committee issues first ever #ExtinctionAlert, a new mechanism to voice extinction concerns more clearly and publicly https://t.co/2FLUUvqe4H
Did you know there was once a species of dolphin called baiji?
The baiji was the first dolphin species driven to extinction by humans. 😔
The baiji was the only member of the mammal family called Lipotidae. This is because the baiji had unique features which were not shared with any other whale or dolphin species.
The extinction of the baiji also marks the extinction of the entire ancient Lipotidae family the baiji represented. The Lipotidae separated from the other river dolphins during the evolutionary process about 20 million years ago.
