What is the evidence on indirect drivers of biodiversity loss worldwide? A systematic map protocol An estimated 1 million species of animals and plants are threatened with extinction. While much research has concentrated on direct drivers (e.g., land use change) of biodiversity loss, understanding ...

New records and co-occurrence in the Amazon Region of Colombia of Short-eared Dog, Atelocynus microtis (Sclater, 1883), and Crab-eating Fox, Cerdocyon thous (Linnaeus, 1766) (Mammalia, Canidae) Atelocynus microtis (Sclater, 1883) is a rare canid whose distribution spans the entire Amazon Basin. It is the least known canid in Colombia, where sightings have been reported from six localities. I...

LESSONS FROM CROCODILE

🐊 In crocodiles, sex is influenced by incubation temperature — a process known as Temperature-Dependent Sex Determination (TSD). Environmental changes can shape population structure over time.

The bottom line is global biodiversity loss isn’t driven by one dominant threat. It’s the combined, cumulative pressure of multiple drivers. To halt vertebrate declines, conservation must tackle them together. 🌍

Best behavior and environment studies of 2025 Here are five of the most-read lessons from Rare’s Behavior Beat newsletter in 2025 that we can use to spur more action.

Behavioural science isn't nice-to-have, it's essential infrastructure for conservation and climate action.

Understanding what drives decisions helps us design interventions that last.
