American black bear (Ursus americanus) foraging. Seasonal shifts in plant availability drive energy accumulation before denning. This species contributes to ecosystem functioning through seed dispersal and nutrient redistribution.

In boreal regions, moose use water bodies to cool down and avoid insects during summer. A simple scene that reflects core principles of behavioral ecology: thermoregulation, habitat selection, and adaptive energy trade-offs.

En primavera, el oso pardo cantábrico (Ursus arctos) entra en celo. Los machos cortejan siguiendo rastros y esperando con paciencia. No siempre gana el más fuerte, sino el más persistente.

New paper!! We reported the first record of a specimen of Taeniurops grabatus in Galician waters (north-west Spain), suggesting northern shifts of fish species due to climate changes.

Hoy, gracias a @wildwatching.bsky.social hemos fotografiado
Águila real, golden eagle, (Aquila chrysaetos) en el parque regional de Riaño y Mampodre (España). Hemos observado a esta especie desde un hide.
