Declines in insect abundance and biomass might not imply loss of ecosystem functions if the dominant species are the ones most affected. Nice experimental study with ant communities. 🧪🌏

I will forever be haunted by this footage. Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity. What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives. 🌎🦑🧪
