Some of these ideas are good, others not so much. E.g. "Sprinkle wildflowers" – please don't. "Wildflower" seed mixes usually contain non-natives, some of which are invasive. 🧵🌎🪲🪳 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Very important - I’m working on a project gauging who feeds urban wildlife and why. Critical to have people on the team who, for example, know how to design robust questionnaires etc.

If you don't know who Louise Russell is, you owe it to yourself to learn about her. Between the fact that she was an entomological authority in 1953 to her final publication at age of 101, it's criminal she isn't more famous. www.entsoc.org/fellows/loui... #entomology

“They're missing the whole point in that we're seeing more fires, a longer fire season, more intense fires, more severe fires, because the climate is changing due to human activities,” said fire expert Mike Flannigan. “It's a serious omission, and that's being very polite.”

Here's my @inaturalist.bsky.social observation for this earwig. If anyone knows the species (auricularia?) please chime in. The crab spider (see it?) is a bit too blurry to be a good observation. I think the rose is likely either Rosa woodsii or R. acicularis. www.inaturalist.org/observations...

All Trails and the like are fine and dandy. But honestly, bring a paper map. A compass isn't a bad idea either. And know the declination for the area you're traveling. (Although you could figure that out at night if you have a clear view of the north star and know how to find it.)

Besides the sheer hubris of making decisions in this manner, there is no sustenance-based reason to hunt cougars (or wolverines, wolves, grizzlies) – it's all about trophies and bragging rights. Additionally, killing top predators has massive effects on ecosystems. 🌎 thenarwhal.ca/alberta-coug...

They are so traumatized they do not realize … they are connected to other people, other animals, trees, fungi, bacteria, the air & water & sun, the unimaginably complex biosphere, and the tiny and fragile planet that carries it all through the cosmos… Read more by @climatehuman.bsky.social here:

A Tenebrionid beetle, Araeoschizus sp., poss. A. duplicatus. They're tiny (smaller than a rice grain) and can be found trying to sneak into harvester ant nests at dusk, when the ants are closing their entrances for the night. Their texture reminds me of Cephalotes turtle ants! (Montana) 🐙🌿 #insects
