Tanya Jackson+FollowPlastic Waste Is Killing Wildlife—SeriouslyWildlife sanctuaries are supposed to be safe havens, but at Balukhand-Konark in India, plastic trash is turning deadly. Tourists keep sneaking in with picnics and leaving behind plastic bags, and now blackbucks and other animals are dying after eating the waste.

martinezlaura+FollowWild Himalayan Creature Faces ExtinctionImagine a goat-antelope hybrid so rare, most people have never seen one. That’s the Mishmi takin, and researchers just found out its Himalayan home is disappearing fast—think roads, tourists, and climate change.
