This is what happens when you design a truck straight out of Back to the Future. Something so hideous that only a 7 year-old boy could love.

Go read Cole's great description thread of what this means for caribou and wolves and wolf culls.
📷🦌Cover article! Congrats to @wildco.bsky.social PhD candidate Taz for leading this nuanced paper showing that the effects of wolf reduction on caribou calf survival depend on landscape context. Compensation by other predators may limit benefits for caribou. #openaccess doi.org/10.1002/jwmg....

Just devastating to read how Sean and Nicole's beloved dog Moon was killed in a Conibear trap last week. It's time for change to our archaic trapping laws. Follow the link for more info and please help get the word out (particularly for BC residents).

de Gabriel Hernando: negative public reactions to B-bears in Greece mostly where bear population is expanding and 'new'. Compensation claims suggest coexistence measures are effective. People get upset when large carnivores first show up. 🧪 zslpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

🚨 Action alert! 🚨

The BC government is seeking input on a proposed August black bear hunt in Region 2. This risks public safety and can orphan cubs. Non-lethal solutions are more effective. Submit feedback urging the government not to implement the proposed black bear hunt: buff.ly/UkA9RS1 #BCpoli

Viewing polar bears using busses on monster truck tires is a multi-million dollar industry, seemingly endlessly caught in politics, with focus on dollars and much less on actual conservation. There is a LOT more going on that this story doesn't dig into. #CONTEXT

@brentbutt.bsky.social so is the @bboncanucks.bsky.social dormant right now because we (the Canucks) suck or because you've found something useful to do with your time instead? Missing the game updates here on bsky!

Gervais walks the talk when it comes to kindness. Thomas Jefferson said that a society is judged by how it treats its weakest members. Abandoned animals should be considered a part of that group.

So DFO was right in predicting a recovery when the moratorium was finally brought in in 1997. Except it took 3 decades instead of 2 years. A huge loss to the economy, culture and ecology, directly caused by poor management and ignoring scientific advice.
So everyone knows that northern cod collapsed completely in the 1980s and never recovered. Well... it's actually kind of recovering now. Spawning biomass is at pretty good levels, while catches remain at a tiny fraction of the heyday levels.
