For more than a decade, governments in countries across the world have made significant progress to expand their protected areas network to conserve the planet s biodiversity. According to a new study published in the journal
Global Change Biology, the locations of these protected areas do not take into account the potential long-term effects of climate change in these protected areas.
Creating and managing protected areas, such as national parks, is key for biodiversity conservation. As the climate changes, however, species will disperse in order to maintain their specific habitat needs. Species that were in protected areas 10 years ago may move to an area outside the protected zone that matches ....

Deadly White-Nose Syndrome Changed Genes in Surviving Bats

Scientists have found genetic differences between bats killed by white-nose syndrome and bats that survived, suggesting that survivors rapidly evolve to resist the fungal disease, according to a Rutgers-led study with big implications for deciding how to safeguard bat populations.
White-nose syndrome has killed millions of bats in North America since 2006, following its introduction from Europe. The syndrome, caused by the fungal pathogen Pseudogymnoascus destructans, is arguably the most catastrophic wildlife disease in history. It has led to unprecedented declines in many North American bat species, including the little brown bat (
Myotis lucifugus).
Our finding that little brown bat populations have evolved, which could be why they survived, has large implications for management of bat populations going forward, said lead author Sarah Gignoux-Wolfsohn, a former postdoctoral associate at Rutgers University-New Brunswick now at the ....

6% of Earth's protected land is used to grow crops, study finds


6% of Earth’s protected land is used to grow crops, study finds
by Morgan Erickson-Davis on 23 January 2021
Protected areas are intended safeguard the planet’s vulnerable inhabitants – including 83% of its endangered species.
A new study reveals that cropland takes up 13.6% of the planet’s ice-free surface area and overlaps with 6% of its protected areas.
While some species are at home in agricultural fields, many are not – particularly the endangered species many protected areas were created to safeguard.
The study’s authors call for national and international sustainability goals to implement a more holistic, data-driven approach when it comes to improving food security and preserving habitat. ....

Protected areas are critical to mitigating extinction of species; however, they may also be in
conflict with efforts to feed the growing human population. A new study shows that 6% of all
global terrestrial protected areas are already made up of cropland, a heavily modified habitat
that is often not suitable for supporting wildlife. Worse, 22% of this cropland occurs in areas ....
