Is there a mammal, or even a marsupial, as alien to us hominids as a marsupial mole? Totally jealous of you for finding this amazing animal, congratulations!
If anyone ever asks me why conservation is difficult then I am going to suggest they listen to the latest episode of the mammalwatching podcast. Charles Foley and I talk to Dr Barbara Taylor (USA) and Dr Lorenzo Rojas-Bracho (Mexico), who together lead the global efforts to save the Vaquita from extinction. Vaquitas, a tiny and beautiful porpoise, are found only at the top of the Gulf of California and hold the unfortunate distinction of being the world's rarest marine mammal (possibly the rarest of any mammal species). There may be as few as 6 animals left alive.
The story of the Vaquita's precipitous decline over the past 60 years is a tragedy worthy of Shakespeare with a cast of actors that include Chinese Mafia, Mexican Drug Cartels, an illegal fishing industry and corrupt officials. But despite so much stacked against them the little porpoises are still clinging on. Look for "mammalwatching" on Spotify and other podcast platforms, or stream it here www.mammalwatching.com/podcast/s3-e4-the-vaquita-with-barbara-taylor-lorenzo-rojas-brachos3-e4/

Polar Bears (Ursus maritimus), Svalbard, 2024
We had a fabulous encounter with this mother and subadult bear last month, presumably her offspring. They were feeding on a White-beaked Dolphin, one of three cetaceans they had stashed on the beach in various stages of decomposition. Does anyone have any idea why there might be three dead dolphins in the same spot: they must have died at different times so didn’t get trapped in the ice together.

Exciting!We are excited to announce that the giant pangolin has been rediscovered in Senegal after a 24 year absence!
Collaborating with Panthera Senegal and their camera-trapping program in Niokolo-Koba National Park, lead authors Mouhamadou Mody Ndiaye and Marine Drouilly, PSG steering committee leader Daniel Ingram, and PSG co-chair Matthew Shirley were part of the team who recently captured this photo of a giant pangolin (Smutsia gigantea). This significant finding also documented 45 other mammal species, reaffirming the biodiversity of this West African region.
Congratulations to Panthera, who partnered with Senegal Department of National Parks to co-manage Niokolo-Koba, and to everyone involved in this discovery! To read more about the giant pangolins in Senegal, please click on the following link: bit.ly/3QXhcGB

Awesome! Wonderful news!
Fantastic!
In our latest podcast, Charles Foley and I talk to conservationist Bill Robichaud, best known for his work to protect what many would argue is the world’s most enigmatic mammal: the Saola. The species, which was first discovered by scientists in 1992 in the mountains of Vietnam, is one of the most stunning zoological discoveries of the past 100 years. Extremely rare and highly elusive, it has yet to be seen by any biologist in the wild. Bill talks about how the species was discovered, and what measures are being taken to track down the last remaining individuals.

Does anyone have any idea why there might be three dead dolphins in the same spot? They must have died at different times so didn’t get trapped in the ice together. CORRECTION: I’m told these are both adult bears and the dolphins did all die at the same time- a pod trapped in the ice. Presumably the bears ate them one at a time.

Tehuantepec Jackrabbit (Lepus flavigularis), Oaxaca, Mexico, 2024
Fewer than a thousand of these beautiful jackrabbits remain in one tiny area of Oaxaca. Possibly the world’s most endangered rabbit, they are clinging to survival around the shores of a single salt water lagoon in a remote area of Oaxaca. They face a tragedy of threats including habitat loss, fire, feral dogs and poaching. Seeing several last week was a major highlight of my trip to Mexico, as was meeting some of the local community - who were as welcoming as these rabbits are rare - working to protect them.

Johnston’s Genet (Genetta johnstoni), Ivory Coast, 2024
According to wikipedia this beautiful small carnivore is “considered one of West Africa’s least known carnivores, and until the turn of the century was known only from museum collections. In January 2000, a dead individual was found near the Taï National Park in Côte d’Ivoire. In July of the same year, the first live individual known to science was trapped.”
Yet they seemed quite common in Tai Forest earlier this month. We saw 5 in as many days.
