10 Reasons For Bringing Back Lynx “Across mainland Europe, the Eurasian lynx is staging a comeback. This enigmatic cat has been successfully reintroduced into several countries and is now expanding its range.Scotland remains just one of a handful of European countries with no apex predators. The Lynx to Scotland partnership believes that lynx could thrive in #Scotland, benefit Scotland and should be returned to Scotland.” #wildlife https://issuu.com/scotlandbigpicture/docs/10-reasons-lts-v4

Spent some time with Gimli, out walkies in nature yesterday, as he tried to sample the local produce. He’s such a wee character. Look at them eyes! 🥰 #dogsofmastodon

“In mythos & fairy tales, deities & other great spirits test the hearts of humans by showing up in various forms that disguise their divinity. They show up in robes, rags, silver sashes, or w/ muddy feet. They show up w/ skin dark as old wood, or in scales made of rose petal, as a frail child, as a lime-yellow old woman, as a man who cannot speak, or as an animal who can. The great powers are testing to see if humans have yet learned to recognise the greatness of soul in all its varying forms.”

#3goodthings today…- Unfortunately, I didn’t get the job I applied for earlier in the week. So what’s good about that? I tried. Gotta be in it to win it, and there’s always tomorrow.- I enjoyed a beautiful walk today at The Hermitage in Pitlochry. You should visit. https://www.nts.org.uk/visit/places/the-hermitage- I took my new best friend Gimli with me, as his best friend was working. He did have a look of ‘you’re sure we’re allowed out?’ about him, but he enjoyed sniffing lots of new places. So.. #dogsofmastodon

“The humanitarian crisis in Congo has shocked the world, as 6.9 million people experience displacement due to violence from armed groups. What is not often talked about is that the suffering of Congolese communities is part of the sinister underbelly of emerging “green technology.” The mineral mining in eastern Congo, used in solar panels and electric cars, is behind much of the region’s violence…” #minerals #environment #greenenergy #humanrights https://truthout.org/articles/humanitarian-crisis-in-congo-is-the-sinister-underbelly-of-green-tech/

“Scotland is a place full of magic and mystery with legends around every corner. While there are unique creatures of folklore to find here like Brownies or Kelpies, we also have one you’ll be much more familiar with. There are so many stories of Scottish Fairies to explore, with lots featuring in the Scotland’s Stories book, that narrowing down the list is no easy task!So just exactly what are Scottish Fairies and where can you find them?” #scotland #stories #folklore https://scotlands-stories.com/stories-of-scottish-fairies/

“Discussion of #climatechange usually focuses on the danger to people, but #wildlife is equally affected, if not more so. The crisis is contributing to the risk of extinction of 12,260 threatened species, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) recently calculated.Here are three women who dedicate their lives to saving one of those species - the mountain gorilla, the Chinese pangolin and the leatherback turtle.” #conservation #nature #climate https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-67308974

“If you want evidence that the world is a terrible place, watch the news and surf the web. But if you want to remember how incredible this planet is, go out into nature. Unlike social media and the news, nature has no incentive to keep us agitated, angry, and anxious.”

“#Humanrights and #nature’s rights are the enemies of profit. As long as profit and growth are the focus of all investment, there will never be, and there has never been, any “good” #capitalism.”
