In the past, wildlife vigilantes have illegally moved Tasmanian devils off the island — an illegal practice known as “covert rewilding”. They may well might try again.
Sat-navs could one day warn motorists when they drive through high-risk areas.
Warm-blooded fish can swim 1.6 times faster than their cold-blooded relatives.
Given the scale of the problem, five years was never enough time to turn things around. Clearly, we must reflect honestly on our successes and failures so far.
Oil spills, cracked buildings and pollution. Just some of the environmental effects of Kenya’s massive railway project.
Determining the age of fish has been historically difficult, primarily involving lethal methods. A new DNA test solves this problem.
A bewildering array of laws and regulations cover species and ecosystems in Canada, making their protection inadequate.
Studying how elephants move can give clues into how they can be better managed to conserve their populations.
Research suggests our names for birds reflect our changing relationship with the natural world: here’s why that matters
Tassie devils are notorious scavengers, eating everything from echidnas to stranded whales. Understanding how their teeth wear down can help us feed and protect captive populations.
The bacteria which causes the infection in yellow-eyed penguins is closely related to a human pathogen.
Ancient climate change doomed the monk seals that lived in Australian waters millions of years ago.
In Lough Hyne’s shallows, animals and plants thrive that would otherwise be found in the ocean’s depths.

When a big old tree dies or is cut down, even if we plant a new one we might have to wait hundreds of years before it provides a good possum house.
There are too many little-understood species for scientists to study them all. A new approach helps decide which ones to tackle first.
For temperature-sensitive animals, the dense, leafy canopy of willow trees may make them the lesser of two evils in a warming climate.
In the design of marine protected areas, new research suggests that it might be better to start small in order to gain local trust and support that leads to larger long-term benefits.
