An adult jaguar has traveled more than 2,000 kilometers across the southern Amazon, setting a new record for its species and surprising scientists with its unusual route. This discovery changes our understanding of what big cats are capable of and highlights the importance of natural corridors for their survival.
Archaeologists have described a new species of spider that disguises itself as a victim infected by a parasitic fungus in order to avoid predators. This discovery broadens our understanding of mimicry in the animal kingdom.
A new study has shown that tropical insects have a limited ability to adapt to rising temperatures caused by climate change. This could threaten up to half of the species in regions such as the Amazon and impact entire ecosystems.
A new study has shown that climate change affects tree diversity in the tropical forests of the Amazon and Andes in different ways: in some regions, species are disappearing, while in others, new ones are emerging. Scientists emphasize the importance of a regional approach to forest conservation and highlight the Northern Andes as a potential refuge for vulnerable species.
