New research argues that most animals enjoy positive experiences throughout their lives, and that can help their conservation.

New research shows when human actions started to fragment elephant habitat in Asia and how that could help conservation efforts.

Regions that have been lucky so far may be less well prepared for an unprecedented heatwaves in the future.

As new technologies supercharge the field of bioacoustics, researchers can better listen to environmental changes — and use the information to guide conservation efforts.

To preserve habitat for fish and benefits for humans, some scientists suggest we need to explore the need for assisted migration.

Researchers warn we risk losing a sustainable future if we don’t take action to conserve insects and address climate change. They also offer solutions.

We rely on freshwater plants and animals for clean water, food, recreation and other needs. And yet they’re often overlooked in conservation.

New research finds that at least 254 bat species face pressure from hunters, and that could push some of them into extinction.

“Climate change is real and it is here, and it’s not going away. We need your help,” writes Joëlle Gergis in the new book Humanity’s Moment.

Researchers have found PFAS in the bodies of wild animals everywhere they’ve looked. Now they’re beginning to understand the health effects.
