Endangered species
The document summarizes endangered species in the Silesian Province of Poland, including the Rybnik area. It discusses five key species: the white-tailed eagle, bats of various species, beavers, European bison, and the eagle owl. These species face threats from habitat loss, accidents, and in some cases poaching or hunting. Conservation efforts are helping some species recover, but protection of habitats and education efforts are still needed. The Rybnik area in particular contains forests, meadows, and lakes supporting over 65 protected plant species and 200 protected animal species.
Astola island
The largest offshore island in Pakistan. This island is a part of Pasni sub-district in Gawadar, Balochistan. It is Pakistan's first marine protected area. Due to isolation there are many endemic species in Astola island. It is also known as 'Jazira Haft Talar' which means island of seven hills. The endangered green turtle can be found here.
Extinct animals
The cave bear was a large bear species that lived in Europe and Asia during the Pleistocene era, weighing up to 1 ton for males and 225-250kg for females, and became extinct due to the Last Glacial Maximum cooling period. The duck marine was a rare duck species found only on three Pacific islands that disappeared due to habitat loss from draining marshlands for agriculture and damage during World War II, with the last pair observed in the wild. Extinct animals mentioned in the document include the cave bear and duck marine, which disappeared due to climate changes or human activities like warfare and conversion of wetlands to farmland.
Polar bear report - Sean
Polar bears rely on sea ice to hunt seals. As Arctic temperatures rise, sea ice declines and melts earlier each year. This reduces polar bears' time to hunt, causing them to lose weight and reproductive ability. Some polar bear populations have declined by 20% already. If warming continues, scientists project 2/3 of polar bears could be gone by 2050. The melting Arctic sea ice also threatens polar bears' habitat and forces interactions with grizzly bears invading from the south.

Isle royale national_park
Isle Royale National Park is a remote island located in Lake Superior. It was established as a national park in 1940 to preserve the island's 132,018 acres of wilderness. The island is 45 miles long and 9 miles wide, with over 200 smaller surrounding islands. It has diverse wildlife such as moose, wolves, foxes, and many bird species, as well as dense forests and beautiful wildflower fields. As Michigan's only national park, Isle Royale offers visitors a unique opportunity to enjoy its unspoiled natural beauty.
Forest
The document summarizes information about forests, including the plants, animals, weather, soil, and problems forests face. It describes how forests provide oxygen and are home to many trees, animals like tigers, squirrels, and toucans, as well as flowers. The forests need trees to survive and provide nutrients and shelter. However, people cutting down too many trees threatens forests and the oxygen they provide.
Forests
The document describes various aspects of forests including:
- Trees, plants, vines and animals like snakes, tigers, koalas, and chimpanzees live in forests.
- Forests provide oxygen, food, shelter and nutrients. Animals like toucans eat fruit and berries while red squirrels eat nuts.
- Cutting down trees is a problem as it reduces the forests and oxygen. Forests are found on all continents and are an important environment.

Matthew Ayers (Crabstock Founder & Chef) - “Marketing the wonderful shellfish...Shellfish Association
Matthew Ayers organized the first Crabstock festival in April 2012 at The Lamb Inn in Rissington to promote British shellfish. The festival included cooking demonstrations, live crab picking, and shellfish sales. It was well attended and generated increased sales of crab, lobster, and mussels. Following the success of Crabstock, Matthew plans to organize a Cotswold Shellfish Week and spread the Crabstock festival concept throughout the UK to further educate people about British shellfish and support the industry.Oroxon asmat prt. 1 per.1
The Asmat are an indigenous hunter-gatherer people living in West Papua, Indonesia, on the western half of the island north of Australia; they are one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer cultures in the world, with traditions including nose piercing and body painting for ceremonies and war, though their traditional way of life is threatened by deforestation, colonization and assimilation that are bringing an end to their culture.
Christmas Island Crab Migration
Christmas Island is home to the famous Christmas Island Red Crab migration. The red crabs play an important role in the island's ecosystem by eating vegetation and recycling nutrients. Their annual migration involves over 100 million crabs moving to the ocean to breed, lasting up to 18 days. To prevent road deaths during this time, wildlife crossings have been constructed under roads for the crabs to safely pass. Conservation efforts like road closures help further protect the unique red crab migration.

The Asmat are an indigenous hunter-gatherer culture living in West Papua, Indonesia, who are among the last of such cultures worldwide. They are known for traditions like nose piercing and face/body painting for ceremonies and war. However, deforestation, colonization, and assimilation are seriously impacting their traditional way of life, signaling the end of one of Earth's last hunter-gatherer societies as the modern world influences the Asmat culture.
Pallid sturgeon
The pallid sturgeon lives near the bottom of strong river currents consisting of sand and gravel. It is endangered due to commercial fishing and habitat modification from dams and navigation channels, which has caused their numbers to decrease sharply in the Arkansas River. Pallid sturgeons feed on insect larvae, shrimp, and small clams, and are protected by laws prohibiting fishing and restricting man-made channels to help conserve their population.
Angler fish 2
The anglerfish has sharp teeth to tear fish meat as a carnivore, a streamlined body to cut through water with ease, and fins to help it swim around hunting for prey with its glowing lure.

The Baltic Sea is a brackish sea located between Scandinavia, Northern and Eastern Europe. It is connected to the North Sea and Atlantic Ocean via Danish straits. Nine countries border the Baltic Sea, including Poland which has several coastal cities and national parks along its coastline. The Baltic Sea supports a variety of marine life but faces pollution challenges. Amber washed ashore on Baltic beaches is an iconic symbol of the Polish coast.
Christmas traditions in Poland
Polish Christmas traditions include decorating the home with a Christmas tree, wreaths, and a nativity scene. On Christmas Eve (Wigilia), families have a special meal of 12 dishes without meat, including fish, dumplings, and borscht. They look for the first star before eating and go to a midnight church service. Children receive presents on Christmas day if they were good, or sticks if they were naughty. Schools celebrate with Christmas meals and nativity plays.

The spectacled bear is becoming extinct due to habitat loss and hunting. Habitat loss is occurring due to road construction, destruction of forests for illegal crops like coca and opium, and grazing land for cattle. Around 200 bears are hunted per year for subsistence, protection of livestock/crops, and cultural fear of the animal. The spectacled bear's diet consists mainly of fruits, berries, roots, and fungi, and it inhabits Andean regions between 800-3800 meters in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. Conservation groups are working to protect the species, which could become extinct by 2050 if destruction of its habitat and poaching continues.

Biodiversity - About Walrus (Odobenus Rosmarus) 海象老大
The walrus is a large flippered marine mammal found in Arctic coastal waters. It has thick blubber and skin, small eyes and ears, and long whiskers. Males have long tusks used for defense, breaking ice, and hauling out of water. Walruses live in herds and feed on bottom-dwelling invertebrates. Their population was severely reduced by overhunting but has rebounded in some areas. Continued threats include loss of sea ice from climate change and human disturbance of habitat. Conservation efforts include bans on commercial hunting.

Ursus maritimus
The polar bear is a large carnivorous mammal that inhabits Arctic regions. It has white fur, a stocky body, and can weigh up to 1500 pounds. Polar bears live in areas with sea ice along Canada, Denmark, Norway, and Russia. Their habitat and populations are threatened by climate change as warming temperatures melt sea ice. Loss of sea ice strands polar bears on land and impacts their ability to hunt. Overhunting also contributes to declining polar bear numbers. While efforts aim to better regulate hunting and reduce environmental threats, polar bears remain endangered with their long-term prospects uncertain as the climate crisis worsens Arctic conditions.

Air pollution
Air pollution is caused primarily by human activities like burning fossil fuels for energy and transportation. Major pollutants released into the atmosphere include carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter, and ground-level ozone. Globally, air pollution is estimated to cause 200,000 to 570,000 deaths per year. Reducing the use of fossil fuels and modifying human activities that produce air pollutants can help control air pollution.

Iberian wolf 2
The Iberian wolf is a subspecies of gray wolf found in northern Portugal and northwestern Spain. In the 1950s and 1960s, Portugal initiated an extermination campaign that nearly wiped out wolves in the country. Today, about 45% of wolf deaths in Portugal are still due to human activities like illegal hunting, despite bans. The Iberian wolf lives in hierarchical packs of 3-10 individuals and preys mainly on wild boar, deer, sheep, and goats. Conservation efforts in both Portugal and Spain have helped increase the population of this endangered subspecies.
Bonelli eagle
The Bonelli Eagle, or Hieraaetus fasciatus, is an endangered raptor found across Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It has a length of 65-72 cm and wingspan of 150-180 cm. Its diet consists mainly of rabbits and partridges, but it also preys on other small birds and lizards. The Bonelli Eagle inhabits open and semi-open areas in Mediterranean regions. Though adults are sedentary, juveniles may migrate to avoid competition for food with territorial adults. Several protected natural areas in Portugal help support the rare and declining populations of this eagle.
Green House Effect
The greenhouse effect is when the temperature rises due to increased concentrations of carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere that trap infrared radiation. It is caused by factors like the development of industry, burning of fossil fuels and forests, methane and CFC emissions, and automotive pollution. The greenhouse effect leads to unpredictable consequences such as flooding from melting glaciers that can displace people and damage infrastructure, shifting climate zones, disruption of ecosystems, more extreme weather, and reduced access to drinking water resources.
