New study finds square feces may deliver information.

Seasonal seabird nesting in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands triggers shark turf wars and habitat shifts among different shark species, according to a new study led by scientists from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) Shark Lab. 

Bowhead whales likely reproduce beneath the sea ice northwest of Spitsbergen, while using the open water in the eastern Fram Strait as a migration corridor.

Pollinator and fruit diversity on the globe’s smallholder farms – which account for up to 80% of all farms – remains strong, despite ecological fragmentation. 

New research reveals a link between rising temperatures and changes in polar bear DNA, which may be helping them adapt and survive in increasingly challenging environments. 

Researchers have shown that a 2022-2023 mass mortality event has driven previously abundant populations of Diadema africanum sea urchins throughout the Canary Islands to near-extinction. 

A new count of Vermont’s bee species has identified nine species not previously reported in the Green Mountain State, bringing the total number of species in Vermont to 352, more than any northern New England state.

A new study has revealed that two top ocean predators—northern resident killer whales and Pacific white-sided dolphins—join forces to find and feast on salmon off B.C., with the first video of its kind showing the two species hunting for food and suggesting they have forged a co-operative relationship that may provide mutual benefits.  

Norway is the world’s largest producer of farmed Atlantic salmon and a top exporter of seafood, while the United States remains the largest importer of these products, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization.

Almost 8,000 animal species could be pushed closer to extinction by the end of this century as the interacting effects of climate change-driven extreme heat and human land-use change create increasingly unsuitable conditions across their habitats, according to new research from a international research team led by Dr Reut Vardi of the School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford.
