Shelling may have led to the killing of 7,000 noctule bats in the city of Kharkiv alone

A newborn bison calf in Yellowstone National Park had to be euthanized after a visitor handled it in May 2023 – a recent example of how trying to help wild animals often harms them.

Here’s what determines if a problematic wild animal is saveable or cullable.

Urban coyotes prey on rodents and spread plant seeds. It’s OK to observe them from a distance, but then you should chase them off.

A new study shows that when free-ranging cats are more than a few blocks from forested areas in cities, such as parks, they’re more likely to prey on rats than on native wildlife.

Bats roost under bridges and culverts across North America, so highway departments have to check for them before repairing bridges. A new AI tool makes those inspections faster and more accurate.

Plague-wary Londoners tolerated mischievous red kites and ravens for their services to the city's sanitation.

Your local ducks (and other wild birds) will thank you.

For every kilometre of road in Europe, you're likely to find one dead hedgehog.

Urban green spaces can be a rich habitat for diverse pollinators, if they're managed properly.
