After a long absence, the large marsh grasshopper has been reintroduced to Norfolk's Broads region. The successful conservation effort involved raising grasshoppers and releasing them into restored wetland areas. Following 86 years of population decline, the grasshoppers have hatched for the first time since 1939. The project received significant funding and support from various conservation partners and volunteers.from Science News: Fresh Discoveries, Research & Breakthroughs https://ift.tt/1EC2pKe
Green Anacondas in Peru's Amazon rainforest were challenging to locate due to their hidden behavior. Researchers recorded observations across various habitats, mostly in floodplain forests. The snakes were often concealed among logs, submerged vegetation, and other natural cover. Basking conditions were primarily found in rivers and vegetation mats of oxbow lakes. The findings highlight the difficulty in assessing the presence and population trends of these snakes.
