Der er brug for mere åbenhed og inddragelse af civilsamfundet i arbejdet med FN's kommende biodiversitetsplan. Det har vi sammen med @WrldFed4Animals skrevet om i et åbent brev til @UNBiodiversity og delegerede. #GlobalBiodiversityFramework https://twitter.com/WrldFed4Animals/status/1574399857359572992

On behalf of over 40 #AnimalProtection NGOs & @BornFreeFDN we are concerned about the negotiations for the new global #Biodiversity framework lacking transparency & inclusiveness. We shared this with @UNBiodiversity & participants in this week's meeting.

A growing number of behavioral studies—combined with anecdotal observations in the wild—are revealing that many species have much more in common with humans than previously thought https://on.natgeo.com/3RUtKNA

When we think about #animals at play, we tend to think of cats and dogs—the two most popular companion animals.

But a recent study in @Nature suggests #chickens enjoy play too, @DNairSM reports. 3/12
