ZSL Libraryさんのイラストまとめ

Some of the sadly now #extinct animals mentioned by Carl Jones #ZSLTalks - dodo, passenger #pigeon, thylacine & Carolina parakeet. It is too late for these but he said that we can save #Species & restore #ecosystems but it does take time. #ConservationOptimism #BackfromtheBrink

You may see moorhens nesting at around this time of year, so be sure to look out for them if you're near any bodies of water this week. This lithograph can be found inside John Gould's 'Birds of Great Britain', Vol. 4, 1873. #LondonRiversWeek

You'll often see just a flash of blue as these colourful birds fly past, but if you're very lucky you may see them perched and ready to dive for fish! These kingfishers are from John Gould's 'Birds of Great Britain', Vol. 2, 1873. #LondonRiversWeek

"It hadn't really clicked with man that an #animal could just cease to exist.... if we kill something, it simply won't be there any more. Ever. As a result of the #extinction of the dodo we are sadder & wiser" from #DouglasAdams & Mark Carwardine's 'Last Chance to See' #TowelDay
