Roads Threaten Tiger Habitat

A recently developed global roads database has been used to calculate the impact of existing and planned road networks on habitat crucial for tiger survival. Scientists conclude that both tigers and their prey will be seriously affected.

Marine Species on the Move

Rising temperatures caused by climate change have resulted in a shift in population sizes of marine species - in general, populations are growing at the poles and declining at the equator.

Disappearing Snakes

Thanks to long-term data sets, scientists have been able to document the fact that a snake community plummeted following the wipe out of frogs in Panama due to an invasive fungal pathogen.

Two new studies have set out the ideal conditions for giraffes to be translocated to new areas for conservation purposes. Groups should contain at least 30 females and at least 3 males to ensure long-term survival, and on-going monitoring and management is vital.
