92% of Palestinian kids in Gaza were ‘not accepting of reality’ and 49% wished to die. Almost half of those martyred by genocidal israel in Gaza are children. theguardian.com/world/2024/d…

Happy Tasmanian Devil Average Birthday!! 🥳🥳🥳 Tasmanian devils have a pretty well defined mating season, which means that most devils are born within a period of a couple of weeks in autumn. Meaning that every devils birthday is, on average, 1st April!

THE CUTEST ANIMAL!!! 🥹😍 Here on my finger is an adult Western PYGMY Possum! 🤯 Yes you read that right! These adorable mini marsupials only weigh 15 grams when fully grown and spend their nights bouncing around the desert looking for any banksias or other flowers! 🌸😋 Whilst helping out on biodiversity surveys with Snowline Ecology this week in the Victorian mallee we found many of these incredible animals! 🏜️ Being warmed up in our hands first thing in the morning, we put them back in any dense vegetation so they can rest up during the day for their big nights! 🌙

Female #kakapo Kuihi during a transmitter change and health check on Whenua Hou today. We currently change transmitters every 1 - 1.5 years, but a new design in final stages of testing will last much longer and be easier to fit. #conservation #parrots #fieldwork.
