Harmittomasta kiusasta pelottavaksi viholliseksi – näin suhtautuminen punkkeihin on muuttunut historian saatossa
Humanistinen ympäristötutkimus on tarkastellut punkkeja kulttuurisesta ja historiantutkimuksen näkökulmasta.
Tutkijamme @ottolatva.bsky.social on selvittänyt, miten suomalaiset ovat suhtautuneet punkkeihin ennen ja nykyään.
Punkkeihin liitettiin 1800-luvulla erilaisia uskomuksia, joista yhden mukaan puuvilla kasvaa sille korkeudelle, jolle punkki on puraissut nuorta neitoa.

8 Coming to terms with fish farming and fish consciousness
8 Coming to terms with fish farming and fish consciousness was published in Animal Industries on page 153.
The ethical problems of fish farming have already been widely discussed outside Finland. In my article published in the spring of 2024 (www.degruyter.com/document/doi...), I wondered when the issue would emerge in the Finnish public discussion. Well, now this has happened #fishfarming #animalhistory
