Large variation in wildlife responses to COVID-19 shutdowns in US National Parks. We also include some conceptual graphics on how to think about sensitive vs. habituated animals some of which benefit from being around people and others do not. doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

Greater gliders have made a spectacular recovery after Blue Mountains bushfires. Photo shows a cute Greater Glider snout poking out of a hole. Part of the SCB Oceania "30 days of #ConservationOptimism" initiative.
