In Alaska, #reindeer are much more real than the fantasy animals that pull Santa’s sleigh. Listen to the latest episode of #TheOngoingTransformation to find out how they ended up in Alaska as an important source of food security and economic opportunity:

The animal kingdom places man at the top of the hierarchy, with all other animals below categorized as wild or domesticated. Surprisingly, there is a growing trend among the wealthy to domesticate wild animals. In my view, the sole reason animals turn wild is the hunt for food. Interestingly, by providing food and love, even the wildest animals can be tamed and kept at home. When treated well, they reciprocate with gratitude and friendliness, even towards their former prey. Drawing a parallel with humans, the fundamental drive for both species is the constant pursuit of food. Deprived of food, humans too can exhibit wild behavior. In times of severe crises, such as natural disasters, people have been driven to desperation when food becomes scarce. I recall a significant storm and flood event where people, cut off from essential supplies, resorted to chaotic and uncontrollable actions. It's a poignant reminder that ensuring access to food is vital for maintaining peace and order in society. Let's adopt a mindset of eating to live, rather than living to eat. #AnimalBehavior #Digitalbusiness #Mohun #Mohan #tryst247dotcom #HumanSurvival #FoodSecurity Like Comment Repost Send

Why do animals eat their own poop—and other animals’ too? It's not just your dog that does it, but fish, moose, and many other creatures! And, it can have surprising benefits for them! Learn more in a recent National Geographic article highlighting my work and that of other scientists:

Good to see these positive changes. The work stream-keepers, guardians, and fisheries staff from Communities, government, and Indigenous Nations do is critical to understanding the status and pathways to restoration and recovery. https://lnkd.in/gk8rT_Sa

This conclusion is from a pan-European study, in which the researchers monitored 5,798 apiaries in 17 European countries. And the colony losses over two years. I've been saying this for many years already: Beekeepers are the largest and most important environmental influence for managed honey bee colonies. And as most honey bee colonies are managed, beekeepers have to put their animal first and look at their needs. The good thing: You can always learn and make things better. I had already shared this study: https://lnkd.in/evp4tugM #beehealth #BeeSafe #beeknowledge

Life is a service. Serve Humans. Serve Animals. Serve Plants and Trees. Serve waters, our rivers. Serve land. Serve Birds. Not much just may be little. May be just little, which one can afford is enough. Make Life a Service to that Almighty, which is immanent in all.

❔ What do you know about #BlueWhiting❔ You may not have heard of it, but this little #fish has a big impact. 🐟 It is related to cod 🐟 It migrates long distances, from the west of Ireland for spawning, up to the Arctic Circle for feeding 🐟 It is mainly caught to make fishmeal and fish oil, which are vital to feed farmed animals like salmon 🐟 In 2023, 1.6 million tonnes were caught ❌ Catches have been too high since 2014 – on average, 32% above scientific advice – and this is not sustainable in the long term ❌ Despite an agreed management strategy that promises to stay within scientifically advised limits, countries cannot agree on how to share the catch 💡 NAPA wants to see commitments from all countries to share the blue whiting quota in line with scientific advice and end overfishing.

Following my recent post, I received numerous complaints and angry messages, and some people started to unfollow the work due to the perceived brutality of the video showing the Grinch feeding on a reindeer. While I understand it can be difficult to watch, it's important to recognize that this is a natural, balanced, and fair aspect of the wild. We have become so disconnected from nature that we often expect the world to be full of rainbows and lollipops, failing to acknowledge the harsh realities of survival in the animal kingdom. Animals must endure challenging circumstances to survive, and humans have largely detached themselves from this natural cycle. It's crucial to understand nature in its entirety, including its more brutal aspects, to fully appreciate the changes occurring within it. Moreover, our society often overlooks the significant harm we inflict on the natural world through our daily habits and the way we have structured our lives. We have decimated much of the planet's wildlife, and every year, over 81 billion animals are bred, slaughtered, and consumed under appalling conditions. Astonishingly, more than a third of all food produced is lost or wasted annually. We live in hypocrisy. In contrast, here the Grinch made a cosy bed to rest in after her meal, illustrating a raw and unfiltered look at nature's way of life. #Nature #Brutal #PolarBear #surviving #wildlife #Human #Cute #Svalbard #Arctic #Grinch

The Australian authorities are still holding Molly the magpie captive. The premier and the environment minister, Leanne Linard, say that they do not have the power to order the animal returned. Wow...so they can lockdown a city, close the borders, order mandates, restrictions but to return a magpie to it's home, they cannot do.🙄 Completely heartless and despite a petition demanding the return of Molly amassing over 138k signatures and international news, somehow the Australian politicians are completely powerless. 🤷♀ Let's remember this the next time, they exercise their "powers". If you haven't heard about Molly the magpie, see https://lnkd.in/gy57yPGk for more information Molly is currently in a cage supposedly too domesticated to be released back into the wild, where the bird actually was, except that it visited the family regularly. In the opinion of some wildlife carers, "the magpie “shouldn’t be returned” to the home despite a huge online push for the reunion. “If DES (the Queensland Department of Environment, Science and Innovation) let people get away with this once, then what’s to stop everyone else,” the woman said. This reminds me of the scene in The Bugs Life... "You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one and if they ever figure that out there goes our way of life! It's not about food, it's about keeping those ants in line." Australians are learning that even standing up for a magpie is off limits. Please stand up for each other in all things because this is far bigger than a magpie. 🧡 Email list sign up if you want to be notified when published on my website 👉 https://lnkd.in/gDMu9iEn Source https://lnkd.in/gyt2DhHx https://lnkd.in/gkGeN-5R https://lnkd.in/g52JSKCs

Happy World Jellyfish Day! Gelatinous ocean animals play a crucial role in the marine food web, so much so that it’s sometimes referred to as the “jelly web.” By feeding on carbon-rich phytoplankton, and being eaten by larger animals like turtles, jellyfish and other soft-bodied animals help move CO2 from the atmosphere to the deep ocean, where it’s locked away for centuries. Want to know more? Dive into the fascinating world of jellies with an episode of #OceanEncounters: https://lnkd.in/e-NvFK76
