Our work highlights the need for:
– More IUCN assessments
– Use of sustainability schemes (e.g., FairWild)
– Better monitoring of trade chains
– Stronger protections for at‑risk species

This national effort will involve top experts from BSI, ZSI, & WII, creating a unified framework to guide conservation & protect species on the brink. 🤝👩🔬👨🔬 #ProtectOurPlanet #ExtinctionRisk
Tiger Gecko
#LIBresearch: New study by Dennis Rödder & colleagues models #ClimateChange impacts on the tiger gecko (Goniurosaurus luii). Results show a “narrow door” effect, where only species with certain traits can persist. 🦎

🚨 New in Nature Food: how much does your food choice affect #ExtinctionRisk?
A study co-authored by SEI York’s Jonathan Green shows impacts can differ by orders of magnitude – with animal products and tropical production driving the greatest risks.

“Hundreds of scientists warn AI may pose extinction-level risks, comparable to pandemics or nuclear war.”

Exciting to see the Tenerife speckled lizard (Gallotia intermedia), a Critically endangered species.
The lizards are literally hanging on the cliff of extinction due to predation by feral cats, pushing them to sub-optimal, more vertical, habitats #biodivesity #extinctionrisk #canaries #tenerife
Looking into the future, we find that the Asian lineage is at higher risk of #RangeContraction, increased #MigrationDistance, #ClimateMaladaptation, and consequently greater #ExtinctionRisk than the European lineage

Sharks are in trouble:
🦈 Global populations halved since 1970
🦈 71% decline in oceanic sharks
🦈 Over 1/3 of chondrichthyans threatened
🦈 Yet demand for meat and fins keeps rising.

By modeling future genetic decline after bottlenecks, we show that harmful mutations can build up even when diversity looks fine leading to increased #ExtinctionRisk
Overheating is a growing threat. 🐸🔥 Over 100 amphibian species already face dangerous heat stress. At +4°C warming 7.5% could exceed their survival limits. Shaded refuges help but won’t be enough. Urgent action is needed to protect them.
