#JaneGoodall, who passed away October 1, 2025, was #pioneer in #primatology and in the fight to preserve our #naturalhabitats and not only successfully campaigned for the #protection of #chimpanzees, but also made very significant contributions to their #biologicalunderstanding.

50 Times Birds Were So Funny, People Just Had To Snapchat Them

People love transforming their faces into cute dogs or cats with snapchat - but you know what's better than a human with an animal filter - a bird with no filter. Bored Panda has compiled a list of hilarious snapchats of birds caught on camera just chilling and doing their thing, sometimes in some very odd places.

Wildlife encounters from Norway are one of the main reasons we went on an adventure in to the Arctic Circle and one of the main reasons I love trail and mountain running, the natural world!!

They have more than a third of their entire landmass devoted to native woodlands and almost three quarters of Norway are made up of natural habitats.

So great to see such species, natural habitats and biodiversity with very little in the way of animal farming, refreshing comparing it to Wales and the rest of the UK which is having huge environmental and biodiversity issues and is a bio desert in comparison, ranking one of the worst in the world for their biodiversity.

You can see all these wildlife encounters in the video on Youtube.

Transformation of natural habitats in South-East Sheffield now in full swing

Natural habitats in the South-East of Sheffield, around the Shire Brook Valley Nature Reserve, are being transformed to help important wildlife species to thrive, thanks to funding.

"In a study published on Nov. 16 in the journal Nature, researchers at Cornell University found that creating more wildlife habitats could help prevent the spread of deadly diseases. More specifically, it would limit pathogen spillover, which occurs when a disease that originates in one animal species and jumps to another."
