Today's Top Good News Story The second-largest in the U.S., a San Francisco-sized piece of land has just been preserved, protecting critical wildlife habitat On 27,512 acres in San Louis Obispo County, California rests Camatta Ranch, a cattle ranch that just completed the second biggest land conservation easement in the country. The land, equivalent to the size of San Francisco, is "filled with rolling hills, green grass, oak woodlands and really important wildlife habitat." While the land is privately owned and open for nature tours, it will also now be protected against any future development. Owned for six generations by the Morrison family, it was important to them to ensure it stayed protected for the hundreds of animals that call it home: golden eagles, bald eagles, mountain lions, red-tailed hawks, and even bison. What's even better: The land is also home to black bears, which were once threatened but have been bouncing back due to conservation efforts like these and were taken off the endangered species list in 2016. → Read more |

Good Progress To Celebrate A study found that restoring coastal habitat boosts wildlife numbers by 61% Pollution, coastal development, climate change, and many other human impacts have degraded or destroyed swathes of mangrove forests, saltmarshes, seagrass meadows, macroalgae (seaweed) forests, and coral and shellfish reefs. Healthy coastal habitats are the gift that keeps on giving. We need them back, so there's a lot of enthusiasm for restoring these habitats. But we want to recover more than just the habitats — we want the animals they support too. In a new analysis of restoration projects, compared to degraded sites, restored habitats have much larger and more diverse animal populations. And that's in line with other, similar research on the subject!) Overall, researchers found animal populations in restored coastal habitats were 61% larger and 35% more diverse than in unrestored, degraded sites. For example, after oyster reefs were restored in Pumicestone Passage, Queensland, fish numbers increased by more than ten times and the number of fish species increased almost fourfold. → Read more |
