how probiotics might save bat species from a killer fungus
Bat experts were shocked at how fast white-nose syndrome had spread to Canada’s northernmost colonies from the US.
Complex suicidal somersault behavior in male redback spiders may be explained by surprisingly simple genetics
The Australian redback spider (Latrodectus hasselti), a cousin of the North American black widow spider, is known to practice sexual cannibalism, which is somewhat common among spider species.
Severe weather now a key predictor of where bird species occur in North America
Scorching heat waves, severe cold snaps and other extreme weather events are limiting where species can exist—and affecting biodiversity estimates—for more than 500 North American bird species, according to a new, Yale–led study.
Q&A: Flesh-eating screwworms have returned. Which new technologies could stop them?
They may look like any ordinary species of flies buzzing around on any given day, but the New World screwworm is quite extraordinary.
Genomics used to find endangered fish populations most vulnerable to climate change
Scientists have shown that genomics can help identify which wild populations are most vulnerable to climate change—offering practical guidance for conserving threatened species before declines become irreversible.
Signs of a house sparrow comeback in the UK after decades of decline
Populations starting to stabilise but much still needs to be done to reverse loss of 30m that almost led to species vanishingHow do you lose 30 million house sparrows?. Destaque: 30 mi.
Rare piglet the size of 'a grapefruit with legs' born at zoo
Rana's arrival is described as a "lifeline for the species", which is in rapid decline in the wild.
More than a decade of observation in Seattle suburbs shows where sensitive bird species won't go
Nearly 30 years ago, a simple question sent University of Washington researchers into the Puget Sound lowlands to look for birds.
how a species feared extinct has come back to Kazakhstan
The wild capture and release of a female big cat into a nature reserve is the first step towards reintroducing a population that hasn’t been seen for 70 yearsOn 31 July, “Umit” – which means hope in Kazakh – was released into a nature reserve on the edge of Lake Balkhash after mo
New species discovered on Costa Rica's deep-sea seamounts
Scientists exploring seamounts off the coast of Costa Rica have discovered a new coral so genetically and morphologically distinct that it required the creation of an entirely new family for its classification.
Scientific advancement has never been more prolific—so why has trust in science plummeted?
From genome editing to quantum computing, scientific progress is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, yet public faith in science is collapsing. Our species has mapped the human genome, created powerful computers that sit in the palms of our hands and extended human life spans
