The COVID-19 pandemic has had an enormous impact on vulnerable animals in Hawaiian animal shelters. Months of lockdowns, economic downturn, and limited hours have led to overcrowding and an inability to accept more animals in need of care. But according to CNN, committed animal lovers weren't willing to let the situation deteriorate any further. In the largest animal rescue flight in history, more than 600 adoptable cats and dogs were airlifted from Hawaii to Seattle, Washington. Dubbed 'Paws Across the Pacific,' the chartered Hercules C-130 plane collected dogs and cats from overcrowded shelters on Kauai, Oahu, and Maui.
New research published in PLOS One shows the koala bear population is in decline--and it's because of humans. According to CNN, a number of human-driven stressors are depressing koalas' immune systems, making them more susceptible to disease. Human encroachment, or farming land previously occupied by koalas, is a major factor. So is climate change, which is robbing the landscape of water and trees. CNN reports climate change is also contributing to the intensity of widespread bushfires in Australia, as seen in the record-breaking blazes of 2019 and 2020. World Wide Fund for Nature - Australia is trying to double koala numbers-- in part by planting seeds to grow more trees that grow koala food.
