According to scientists, to reduce the likelihood of antibiotic-resistant E. coli entering the body, it is necessary to switch to a different diet and subject meat to heat treatment.
In addition, it is necessary to choose for natural feeding the meat of animals raised on farms without the use of antibiotics.
In addition, experts believe that it is necessary to implement stricter rules in the industry.
According to author Ioana-Radu Motoarcae, although the idea seems ridiculous at first, what is really meant is the possibility for people to advocate on behalf of animals and to vote as representatives of fauna. In fact, it would be an extension of a practice that already exists: in the United States, for example, federal lawsuits with animal plaintiffs can be found. The author also reminds us that humans often represent the rights of children and incapacitated citizens.
Brown algae form entire “thickets” in the oceans. They are important because they provide shelter and food for marine life and help protect shorelines from erosion.
For a century, the population density of calanas has been a major predictor of changes in algal prevalence. In regions where calanas are present, there has been an increase in algal forest. In particular, this trend has been documented in the Pacific Ocean from Alaska and Canada southward to the waters of Baja California in Mexico.
A man was sent to jail because of an incident that happened in 2022. Anglers who were fishing on the bank of the Columbia River told police officers about poachers catching sturgeon from a boat and not releasing them back, which is a violation of local regulations.
Law enforcement officers followed the offenders for a couple days and then inspected the boat. A large white sturgeon was found there, 4 more live fish were in the water on fishing lines tied to the sides. As it turned out, among them was a 2-meter sturgeon aged 80 years.
Specialists from the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance have determined where the endangered Rhynchopsitta pachyrhyncha species, known as the fat-billed ara, whose primary nesting habitat is pine forests in northwestern Mexico, go to winter. According to a publication in Global Ecology and Conservation, these animals make the migration to the southern part of the Western Sierra Madre range every October. There, according to the researchers, these birds spend a little less than half a year.
The researchers pointed out that only 8.5% of the territories where the thick-billed ara is overwintering are currently protected. As noted by experts, the rest of this territory is threatened by logging for timber harvesting and agricultural development. In total, according to scientists, only 20% of the entire habitat of this endangered species is protected.
