Some very big news recently - in March, scientists filmed a live colossal squid in the wild in the South Sandwich Islands for the first time since it was discovered 100 years ago. It was not, however, a full-sized one - it was instead an infant, only thirty centimetres long.

Yesterday Pairi Daiza welcomed three Qinling golden snub-nosed monkeys from China. It's the first time ever this subspecies is leaving China (the golden snub nosed monkeys in Beauval belong to a different subspecies).

Mediterranean Monk Seal once again spotted in Montenegro:
This and last year we have occasional sightings, which is better than none, since we drove it to extinction in our country. I hope they settle here for long time, some time in the future, if we can find a way to protect them. Until them I enjoy these part-time visits.

This is Dr Saurier, hes a bald Ibis and the first Bald Ibis to return from spain to Lake Constanze in the Alps on his own.
This makes him the first bald Ibis to fly this Migration route on its own since the 17. Century when the bald Ibis population in the alps was erradicated, effectivly reviving this long dead migration route and diversifying the potential migration routes for them, as until his return only the route to northern italy has been reestablished.
So Overall quite the Victory for conservation, as this enanbles genetic exchange between the iberian and central europe population

Might've already mentioned this, but it's good news nonetheless. Pumas we're practically eradicated along the East Coast (apart from Florida's "panthers")
However, up in East Texas, recently some pumas have been spotted (1 was killed near a highway, which is a mixed blessing. Sad that it died, but good news in the long run). It seems that the pumas have started to return East, just like the black bears are (black bears were also eradicated from the area, but they came back several years ago)
So, yeah, I'm quite happy about that

Well, congrats to Dr Saurier!! In a few years this will become a normal bird migration, I'm confident
Are those new eastern pumas from the tiny Florida population, or have they crossed half the US from the western population?
I'm assuming the western population is moving back east
Yea the Florida population is isolated by urbanization so they can’t really move aroundWell, congrats to Dr Saurier!! In a few years this will become a normal bird migration, I'm confident
