🌊🚫 Stop the Spread of Invasive Species! 🚫🌿 Join us during National Invasive Species Awareness Week, Feb 26 - Mar 1, as we spotlight the threat of freshwater aquatic invasive species! 💧 Invasive species seriously threaten our ecosystems, economy, and way of life. From zebra mussels to water hyacinth, these invaders disrupt native habitats, outcompete local species, and wreak havoc on our waterways. But together, we can take action to prevent their spread! 🛑 Here's how you can make a difference: 1️⃣ Clean, Drain, Dry: Always clean your gear and watercraft before moving to a new body of water. 2️⃣ Spread the Word: Educate your friends and family about the dangers of invasive species and how they can help prevent their spread. 3️⃣ Get Involved: Support local initiatives and organizations working to manage and eradicate invasive species in your area. Let's work together to protect our precious freshwater ecosystems for generations! 💙 #InvasiveSpecies #NISAW #ProtectOurWaters #CleanDrainDry

Wetlands are full of life. 🏞️ Did you know how flamingos depend on #wetlands? Wading around their wetland homes, flamingos depend on them to feed, breed and flourish. Without wetlands, there would be no flamingos. Like many other birds around the world, their habitats are becoming increasingly threatened. This World Migratory Bird Day, we look at how national ecosystem assessments in Vietnam and Ethiopia, supported by the NEA Initiative at UNEP-WCMC, bring up-to-date information on the status and drivers of loss of wetlands. Ecosystem assessments play a significant role in synthesising and communicating complex information about wetlands in these countries, meeting the information needs of policymakers and stakeholders of relevant sectors to protect wetlands now, and in the future. #WMBD2023 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eEur4XR8

1 in 5 bird species in Europe is threatened by extinction. Birds spread tree seeds and fight pests. That's why, for example, fewer birds mean more expensive grain. We must protect the #climate and create more nesting sites and habitats for our bird species. So that birds can continue to play an important role in our #ecosystem in the future. #speciesprotection #speciesdiversity Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung

Newly released Global Amphibian Assessment in Nature 🦎🐸 Although there is a grim message that we must face in reading the results (41% of global amphibian species are threatened with extinction), this study is crucial to the next steps in protecting what is left and restoring the rest. This global study, pioneered by Re:wild amongst others, have identified regions with the most threatened amphibian species, allowing us to prioritize their safeguarding. #Rewilding can restore balance to ecosystems that are facing decline in amphibians. Protecting both these wonderfully diverse amphibian species and the wildlife linked to them and these habitats too. They need healthy and diverse ecosystems. They need our help. Have a look at the ten things you can do to help! #SaveAmphibians #RewildingHope https://lnkd.in/eZZfV5PF
The recently published global amphibian assessment found that three out of every five salamander species are threatened with extinction primarily as the result of habitat destruction and climate change, making salamanders the world's most threatened group of amphibians! North America is home to the world's most biodiverse community of salamanders, including a group of lungless salamanders abundant in the Appalachian Mountains of the eastern United States. Conservationists are concerned about a deadly salamander fungus found in Asia and Europe, which could have devastating results for salamanders in the United States and Europe. Learn about how Re:wild is working to help #SaveAmphibians here: (https://lnkd.in/grmD4Tmp 📸 : Photo by Sandeep Das - The Galaxy Frog (Melanobatrachus indicus) is one of the rarest frogs in India. This star-studded frog is classified as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species because of ongoing habitat loss within its restricted range in the Western Ghats.

Happy #InternationalDayoftheSeal! 🌊 Did you know that the Baltic Sea is home to three different species of true seals? One of them, the grey seal (Halichoerus grypus), is found in the Baltic Sea and the north Atlantic. The Baltic Sea population, however, faces various challenges. The grey seal was hunted extensively until the 1970s, with wild numbers decreasing significantly. Since then, the population growth has been on an upward trend with an estimated 60,000 individuals found in the Baltic Sea today. While the species is listed as "least concern" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Global Protected Areas Programme, it remains vulnerable due to ongoing threats. The grey seal is protected under the EU Habitats Directive, but differing national protection measures across Baltic countries highlight the need for unified conservation efforts in the region. Today, human pressures, such as hazardous substances, continue to impact their reproductive cycle. And although the population shows signs of recovery, factors such as disease, ending up as by-catch, rising temperatures and loss of sea ice present imminent threats. A holistic and ecosystem-based approach is needed to protect them. #protectbaltic #protectseals

What does today's #30by30 report from Wildlife and Countryside Link tell us about the Government's progress on meeting its targets to protect 30% of land & sea by 2030? With just six years to go... 😠 only 3.11% of land 😠 less than 8% of sea ...in England is effectively protected for nature. 😡 Less than 1 in 5 of protected rivers are in favourable condition 😡 Nature within protected landscapes is often in worse condition than nature outside them Projects like Dorset Wildlife Trust's Wild Woodbury – part of our Rewilding Network – are showing how sites can and should be protected for nature, boosting biodiversity, flood management and the local community. Nature in England is in a perilous state, but the solutions are out there. Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/e99hP2eG 📢 Urge the Govt to go further and faster to deliver 30by30👇 https://bit.ly/nature_2030 #Nature2030

Happy World Wildlife Day!! To celebrate, here is a composite of some amazing Brasilian cavefishes. Why should you care about a fishes that lives in groundwater? Careful management of groundwater resources will benefit both wildlife and humans. For example, contamination and over-harvest of groundwater threaten both cavefishes and humans living on the surface. Around the globe, groundwater is often harvested faster than rainfall can replace it. Further, the health of groundwater wildlife populations will reflect the quality of the groundwater in which they live. Careful monitoring of groundwater wildlife populations can tell us much about subterranean waters and contaminants therein. Management of groundwater as a renewable resource is an important point considering most of the people living above bodies of groundwater rely directly on the resource for their freshwater needs. Let’s protect our groundwater resources... for our children and for the wildlife living there. #groundwater #subterranean #Stygobitic #CaveFish #Brazil #conservation #ResourceManagement #WeCanDoBetterThanThis #GroundwaterHarvest #GroundwaterContamination #DoItForOurKids #GroundwaterAdapted #LossOfPigment #NoEyes #Biodiversity
