Raccoon dogs threaten ground-nesting birds in Finland. The raccoon dog, an invasive species indigenous to mainland East Asia and now abundant in Finland, is a more common duck nest predator than any indigenous mammalian species. Racoon dogs depredated nests on shorelines as well as in forests, rural landscapes and urban area; hence duck species are faring poorly, with more than half listed as threatened to a varying degree.

In August 2021, rain was observed at the highest point on the Greenland Ice Sheet, aka Greenland Summit, for several hours, and air temperatures remained above freezing for about nine hours. It is the first recorded rainfall at this location, which is 10,551 feet in elevation. A flow pattern associated with a low-pressure center over Baffin Island and high-pressure to the southeast of Greenland brought warm, moist air from the South. NASA experts worry about the longer-term implications. Read more in our Dispatch 👉🏼 https://bit.ly/2YmZJPI#ConservationFirst #Wildlife #Greenland ... See MoreSee Less

Grizzly bears and Indigenous people of coastal British Columbia have lived side-by-side for millennia.

Researchers believe it could be based on survival needs such as salmon runs. Read more in our Dispatch 👉🏼 https://bit.ly/2YmZJPI#ConservationFirst #Wildlife #GrizzlyBear ... See MoreSee Less
