If you want to see beautiful wildlife, DON’T KILL IT! Devastating news today from @HorseySeals the action of visitors to Horsey & Winterton are killing seals! Actually killing them! What can be done here @RuralCrimeNfk @InspProvart @DefraGovUK as wildlife laws are being broken.

Here are some old pictures of a pip that came to me a couple years ago heavily pregnant. She was such a good mum!!! They were eventually both released back to their roost in an attic and the other bats came out to meet them 😭

Good morning . I’ve been sickened by smashed ‘hedgerows’ for years but I think this one may be the worse . . . how can anyone actually think that this an acceptable way to treat a valuable part of our countryside ? I’d like to flail their front room .

[Prof Ben Garrod @Ben_garrod]

It’s not a big, iconic or ‘sexy’ species and it won’t get much coverage in the media but this is important. The Bramble Cay melomys is now extinct ... the first mammal to be declared extinct due to human-caused climate change. Don’t let this go unnoticed.

Less than 1% of material used to produce clothing is recycled into new garments at the end of its life. What do you think of this idea for a 'penny on a garment' tax for clothing brands and retailers to fund more clothes recycling? #fastfashion https://t.co/cOrgPpnSSR

A decision has finally been made to upgrade the Spectacled Flying-fox to Endangered under the EPBC Act. Hopefully, this will help protect the species from future anthropogenic disturbances such as habitat clearing that exacerbate their decline.

Good news! China’s third largest city - Beijing - has developed an ivory policy stronger than that of national government by completely eliminating the cultural relics loophole left behind following China’s 2017 ivory trade ban. #NaturalResourcesDefenseCouncil Photo: Lucy Vigne

On this #DarwinDay, a reminder that everyone has days where they feel stupid and like they can’t do anything right. Remember, you’re still pretty great!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHARLES! Today is #DarwinDay ... go and look at an animal or plant today and spend a few moments pondering all the things which make it special and how those features have taken thousands or millions of years to emerge, evolve and fine tune ... #evolution
