Here's a preview of the cover and contents of 'Global Environment' 19.1 (2026), a special issue on 'Global Fat Resources' edited by Elena Kochetkova, Matthias Heymann and Ines Prodöhl; #openaccess thanks to the KOALA Consortium and all our subscribers! @globalenvironment.bsky.social #envhist #fat

Whenever I hear stories of "Canadian" animals spotted in the UK, I first wonder if they're the descendants of donated Canadian national park ones that escaped. It's happened. Here are beaver heading to London, Eng, 1946. 2 died in the traps, another in transit. heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm....

Another day, another illicit species release: I suspect there are a few people who know exactly where this one came from (Bavaria, originally, I bet - it seems all Europe's illicit beavers can be traced back there), and quite a few more who have strong suspicions. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
