A network of wildlife crossings in Colorado has reduced collisions along Interstate 25 by approximately 85 percent. This system includes fencing, underpasses, and an overpass which opened in December 2025. Recent studies show a significant decline in wildlife-related crashes since the introduction of these measures. Various species, including elk and pronghorn, have begun using these crossings effectively.

The successful eradication of invasive rodents in 2005 has greatly influenced seabird populations on Surprise Island. Researchers closely monitored seven seabird species to document their recovery post-eradication. While some species thrived quickly, others needed more extended observation to show signs of improvement. Notably, noddies saw a significant increase in breeding pairs, whereas red-footed boobies showed a more gradual recovery.

Almost ten years post the controversial Roe 8 highway initiative, Western Australia is witnessing a promising wave of ecological recovery. Recent studies have reported a remarkable resurgence of local wildlife and native plant life. Rehabilitation efforts, which have culminated in planting over 280,000 seedlings, are welcoming back species such as Carnaby’s black cockatoos.

According to a recent report, the Amazon has lost 97 million hectares of primary forest by 2025. Most forest loss is attributed to human activity, particularly land clearing and fires. The disruptions to moisture pathways during dry seasons raise critical concerns for the ecosystem. A strong El Niño expected in late 2026 could exacerbate these issues and increase fire risks.
