Sicilianews24.it: Due marsupiali ritenuti estinti da 6.000 anni ritrovati vivi in Papua Indoesiana.

Scoperta di marsupiali ritenuti estinti da 6.000 anni
Due specie di marsupiali che si pensava fossero estinte da oltre 6.000 anni sono state ritrovate vive sull’isola di Nuova Guinea. Questi due “Lazarus” sono stati recentemente identificati nelle foreste pluviali della Penisola del Bird’s Head, che si trova nella parte indonesiana dell’isola, mentre la parte orientale appartiene a Papua Nuova Guinea.
Fino a poco fa, gli scienziati conoscevano solo il marsupiale a lungo dito pigmeo (Dactylonax kambuayai) e il volatore dalla coda ad anello (Tous ayamaruensis) attraverso reperti fossili. La scoperta di queste specie mai osservate prima ha aperto nuove prospettive per la ricerca sulla biodiversità delle foreste pluviali di New Guinea.

Two marsupials considered extinct for 6,000 years found alive in Papua Indonesia.

The discovery of marsupials considered extinct for 6,000 years
Two species of marsupials thought to be extinct for over 6,000 years have been found alive on the island of New Guinea. These two “Lazaruses” were recently identified in the rainforests of the Bird’s Head Peninsula, which is located in the Indonesian part of the island, while the eastern part belongs to Papua New Guinea.
Until recently, scientists only knew about the long-fingered pygmy marsupial (Dactylonax kambuayai) and the ring-tailed glider (Tous ayamaruensis) through fossil remains. The discovery of these previously unobserved species has opened new perspectives for research on the biodiversity of the New Guinea rainforests.

Sicilianews24.it: Tradizione di pesca antica in Indonesia: verso una pesca più sostenibile.

Tradizione e Sostenibilità in Indonesia
Negli angoli remoti delle coste dell’Indonesia orientale, una tradizione secolare sta offrendo un modello contemporaneo per lo sviluppo sostenibile. Questa pratica, conosciuta come Sasi Laut, prevede la chiusura temporanea della pesca per un periodo che varia da sei a dodici mesi, permettendo così la rigenerazione di specie marine stanziali come cetrioli di mare e molluschi.
Un nuovo studio pubblicato sulla rivista Marine Policy sottolinea come questi sistemi tradizionali di gestione marina, situati intorno alle isole di Maluku e Papua, siano in linea con la Roadmap dell’Economia Blu dell’Indonesia 2023, un piano nazionale volto a potenziare il contributo del settore marittimo al PIL, mantenendo al contempo oceani sani.

Ancient fishing tradition in Indonesia: towards more sustainable fishing.

Tradition and Sustainability in Indonesia

In the remote coastal areas of Eastern Indonesia, a centuries-old tradition is offering a contemporary model for sustainable development. This practice, known as Sasi Laut, involves temporarily closing fishing for a period ranging from six to twelve months, allowing for the regeneration of stationary marine species such as sea cucumbers and mollusks.

A new study published in the Marine Policy journal highlights how these traditional marine management systems, located around the islands of Maluku and Papua, align with the Indonesia Blue Economy Roadmap 2023, a national plan aimed at enhancing the contribution of the maritime sector to GDP while maintaining healthy oceans.

Today in Labor History March 7, 1996: A crowd of 3,000 workers destroyed the Freeport copper mine facilities in Tamika, Irian Jaya (West Papua). They took this action after a company security guard ran over a member of the Dani clan. Protesters kept operations shut down and demanded an end to human rights violations, eco-terrorism and cultural genocide by the company. Overnight, the international price of copper jumped from $15 per ton to $2580 per ton.

Indigenous people in #Papua, #Indonesia, have helped scientists track down two species that were thought to have gone extinct thousands of years ago: a relative of Australia’s greater glider and a palm-sized possum with a bizarre, elongated finger, both #marsupials.

Fantastic news from western #Papua (Irian Jaya) in #indonesia
There have been two new #species discovered which were only known from fossils. So called Lazarus-species. Look at them! Aren't they really cute little critters? 🙂
