The insect is a violet carpenter bee (Xylocopa violacea), one of the largest bees in Europe. These bees make their nests by drilling holes in dead wood. Although they are large in size, they are harmless. Today, I spotted this bee in my courtyard as a visiting guest. #Bee

Convention on Migratory Species (CMS)
Vultures are widely misunderstood and play an irreplaceable role as nature’s cleanup crew. They prevent diseases, recycle nutrients, and even help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Yet they are disappearing at an alarming rate. 🦅 To mark International Vulture Awareness Day, André Botha, Chair of the Technical Advisory Group to the CMS Raptors MoU, joins host Munir Virani on the Talons of Hope podcast. He shares solutions that are turning the tide and explains why these birds are the silent guardians of our ecosystems and our health. 🎧 Listen now: buzzsprout.com/2502210/episod… #VultureDay

Sending Lolly from its homeland to Russia is not rescue—it’s exploitation. Pakistan’s wildlife is not for export. Let this endangered cub grow up where it belongs... @ClimateChangePK @ForeignOfficePk
WWF-Pakistan@WWFPak

Conservation begins at home. Our #wildlife is part of our identity. It should be protected, not exported. Two rescued #SnowLeopards in Gilgit-Baltistan are at risk of being sent abroad — not for survival, not for science, and with no compelling conservation reason. WWF-Pakistan strongly opposes this move. Instead of exporting our iconic #wildlife, let’s invest in local #conservation, and reaffirm our responsibility to protect these majestic species — right here at home. 🔗 Read our full statement: wwfasia.awsassets.panda.org/downloads/wwf-… #WWFPakistan #ConservationMatters #ProtectOurWildlife #pakistanzindabad
