We've told you about the satellite tagging study of 70 whale sharks in Indonesia that revealed previously unknown migration routes, feeding grounds, and a nursery — the data are now being used to establish the country's first whale shark-specific marine protected area in Saleh Bay, Sumbawa, as it's a permanent home, not a seasonal stop.

Un estudio de una década con seguimiento satelital de 70 tiburones ballena en Indonesia reveló rutas migratorias, zonas de alimentación y una nursería hasta ahora desconocidas. Los datos se usan para crear la primera área marina protegida específica para tiburones ballena en la bahía de Saleh, Sumbawa.

More children's hospitals across the US are adding full-time facility dogs — specially trained working dogs embedded in care teams. Research shows they lower pain, blood pressure, and cortisol levels in young patients. One nonprofit, Canine Assistants in Georgia, has placed over 80 dogs nationally, and the annual Facility Dog Summit nearly doubled in attendance from 2024 to 2025.

Researchers have developed a one-step process that converts existing plastics into a new material that degrades significantly faster. The method replaces oxygen atoms with sulfur in the plastic's structure, weakening its molecular bonds. Published in Chem Circularity, the process is described as easily scalable to industrial quantities.
