- Our new study, funded by @leverhulme.ac.uk, reviews 298 species used in UK herbal medicine: 68% lack IUCN assessments, so extinction risks are unknown. Major threats include biological resource use + agriculture nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #HerbalMedicine #Conservation #Biodiversity
- Female #kakapo Phoenix on her nest yesterday, with three eggs. We suspect they're infertile, but it's hard to tell yet as they're either very dirty or young. She's one of at least 24 female kākāpō on nests on Anchor Island, with 3 more nests found today! #kakapo2026 #conservation #parrots
- The latest #kakapo breeding update, from the Anchor "fridge". #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds #parrots
- Female #kakapo Atareta on her nest on Anchor two days ago. She has at least two eggs, which we'll "candle" to determine fertility in a few days' time, when the oldest is about 10 days old. The nest is huge, so it will be hard to access the eggs. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds #parrots
- Working with #kakapo, this is the best thing you'll ever see. When "candling" an egg you hold your breath, hoping to see this: beautiful embryo development in a fertile egg. This is Tiwhiri's second egg, about 8 days old. About half of eggs are infertile. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds
- Last week no living person had seen a #kakapo lay an egg. Now you can watch it on our webcam: Rakiura laid her second today (15:01 on 25/1/2025). She'll probably lay another in 3 days' time. #conservation #kakapo2026 #birds www.doc.govt.nz/our-work/kak...

- According to a new peer-reviewed study, nearly two-thirds of U.S. river miles have no meaningful protection at all. Nationwide, only 19% of rivers are protected at a level scientists consider viable. In the contiguous United States, that number drops to just 11%. #publiclands #conservation
