From seahorses to sharks, more than 3,000 fish species have been caught in bottom trawls, including many at risk of extinction, according to a new global inventory. 

A recent study shows that heat causes a sharp hormonal spike in isolated honey bees, but social interactions and a key pheromone help prevent this stress response, revealing how bees stay resilient in a warming world.

Researchers have found there is a bacterial protein “key” that allows the Hawaiian bobtail squid to develop a healthy body and its bioluminescent “glow.”

Discovering how the bird flu virus degrades in the air around livestock and how engineering solutions can effect that degradation quickly and efficiently are core aims of a new University of Michigan Engineering-led project funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

As climate change reshapes Arctic food webs, ringed seals will swim into risky polar bear territory if the menu is varied enough.

A new study from the University of British Columbia has found that artificial turf fields across Metro Vancouver leach 6PPD-quinone, a chemical known to kill coho salmon, into municipal stormwater systems—and the contamination persists long after the fields are installed.

Researchers from the University of Bristol Veterinary School, in collaboration with Bristol Zoological Society and partners in Equatorial Guinea, have uncovered alarming evidence that hunting pressure is dramatically reducing the safe habitat available to mandrills inside Monte Alén National Park, one of Central Africa’s most important rainforest strongholds.

Up to half of the insects in the Amazon region could be exposed to life-threatening heat levels due to progressive, anthropogenic global warming.

University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa researchers identified 10 new species and seven new groups (genera) of Hawaiian leaf-roller moths.

Up to 30% of bird diversity hotspots, places where large numbers of different bird species occur, in the western United States face threats from high-severity wildfires in the future that could eliminate critical forest habitats, according to new research published in the journal Nature Communications.
