Assessment of #wildlife populations for 2025/26 is dramatic.
Main drivers: #habitat destruction, overexploitation, #poaching, #pollution,, #climatecrisis. Absent from many reports is another factor – recreational hunting.
Recreational hunting exacerbates the pressure on already weakened #ecosystem s by eliminating predators, disturbing sensitive species during critical periods, and introducing new sources of pollution into the #environment through lead and shot.

💁🏻♀️ ICYMI: 🌳🐦 Woodpeckers are the forest's primary cavity builders, but they aren't the only ones using those spaces. Nearly 20% of bird species worldwide rely on these tree cavities for nesting and staying warm.

Pumas returning to Patagonia have begun hunting mainland penguins that evolved without land predators. Scientists estimate that more than 7,000 adult penguins were killed in just four years, many of them left uneaten. While the losses are dramatic, models show that pumas alone are unlikely to wipe out the colony. Greater dangers come from poor breeding and low survival among young penguins.

Climate change is bringing dangerous interlopers to Venice’s lagoon.
The city of Venice and its surrounding lagoon are irreversibly at the mercy of climate change.
New research has highlighted how warming seas are bringing invasive species that threaten the lagoon ecosystem and the livelihoods of local fishing communities.

#Speciesconservation is practiced selectively.Silent victims count for less than loud ones.Hunting is not consistently aligned with ecological limits,but rather with traditions,lobby interests,and political expediency.
As long as hunting is treated as a fundamental cultural right and not as a potentially harmful intervention in complex #ecosystem s,these patterns will repeat themselves,whether on remote islands in the North Atlantic or in the fields of Southern Europe

The scientists argue that the protection of endangered species is a success of modern conservation policy that must not be undermined by hunting interests. These species fulfill functional roles in #ecosystem s: wolves promote tree regeneration, beavers contribute to maintaining open wetlands, and rooks are an indicator of successful #habitat restoration.Protecting them leads to functioning, resilient landscapes, not to ineffective hunting practices
