Seven Mexican wolf puppies were born at Brookfield Zoo in Chicago on 27 April 2023, but only one of the males will emerge from their den as the other six puppies have gone on a remarkable journey back into the wild. On 6 May the other pups —four males and two females—were flown to Arizona and placed in wild Mexican wolf dens as part of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services' Mexican Wolf Recovery Program. At just nine days old, the six puppies, accompanied by veterinary and animal care staff from the Zoo, went on their plane trip. From there, the Mexican Wolf Interagency Field Team placed three of the puppies in a wild pack in southeast Arizona and three into a wild pack in southwest New Mexico. This process of cross-fostering puppies with different packs, then the ones they were born into, is done to help enhance the genetic diversity of the overall Mexican wolf population. The objective of the breeding and rewilding programme is to re-establish the Mexican wolf population in its…

Delilah, an Oregon Zoo chimpanzee who helped launch a decades-long friendship with renowned primatologist Jane Goodall, turned 50 on 25 May 2023. At 50, Delilah is one of the oldest animals at the zoo — but still not the oldest chimp. Jackson, 51, and Chloe, 54, are both older. All three have far surpassed the typical life expectancy for chimpanzees. Wild chimps typically live around 33 years, and the median life expectancy in zoos is 41.7 years for female chimps. Delilah was born May 25, 1973, at the Oregon Zoo, then known as the Portland Zoological Gardens. Around that time, the zoo's pioneering work with chimpanzees drew the attention of renowned conservationist Jane Goodall, who visited regularly, getting to know Delilah and the others. Dr. Goodall's work led to a new era of care for chimpanzees and other primates and inspired the design of the zoo's new primate area, which opened in 2020 and is home to eight chimps. Delilah has even gave care staff a chimp's-eye look at th…

A recent study published in Current Biology reveals that fungi play a significant role in mitigating climate change. The study found that fungi consume more than a third of the world's annual fossil fuel emissions. This makes them a vital but often overlooked component of carbon modeling and conservation efforts. Fungi, including the mushrooms we see above ground, form vast underground networks that interact with plant roots. These networks, known as mycorrhizal fungi, provide plants with nutrients in exchange for carbon dioxide from photosynthesis. As a result, fungi act as a subterranean "carbon bank". However, human activities such as agriculture, mining, and industry disrupt these fungal networks. These pose risks to the stability of carbon storage. Globally, the world's plants pump an estimated 13 gigaton of carbon dioxide into underground fungi each year, per the study.

Mysterious sightings of an extremely rare butterfly have sparked excitement among enthusiasts. The black-veined white butterfly, a species that was last listed in Britain in 1925 has been extinct for 100 years. But recently it has been observed in small numbers in fields and hedgerows on the outskirts of London. These butterflies, with their distinctive black vein markings on white wings, have appeared in southeast London. Experts believe that the butterflies were likely released intentionally, although the motives and individuals responsible remain unknown. According to the charity Butterfly Conservation, their reappearance does not signify a recovery of an extinct species.
