Der BUND Sachsen untersucht systematisch die Vorkommen von Feuersalamandern in sächsischen Mittelgebirgen. Die Untersuchungsergebnisse aus den Jahren 2021 - 2024 sind auch in die Studie der Forschungsgruppe der Uni Bielefeld eingeflossen.

#Feuersalamander #NatureResearch #SpeciesDiversity
Nahaufnahme eines Feuersalamanders mit auffälligem gelb-schwarzem Muster auf grünem Gras. Der Text informiert über eine Studie der Universität Bielefeld, die zeigt, dass männliche Tiere mehr Gelbanteil als weibliche haben. Zwei Feuersalamander mit Geschlechtersymbolen (♂ und ♀) vor dunklem Hintergrund. Der männliche Salamander zeigt deutlich mehr Gelbfärbung, besonders am Kopf. Der Text erklärt die Warnfunktion der Farbe und die geschlechtsspezifischen Unterschiede. Feuersalamander mit gelb-schwarzem Muster auf einem Holzstück, vor unscharfem Naturhintergrund. Der Text stellt Fragen zur Bedeutung der Farbgebung für Partnerwahl, Tarnung und Fressfeinde und betont den Forschungsbedarf.

8/ Farmers also economically benefit from ‘reduced seasonality’🍂 and higher profitability of game than cattle 💸(Chaminuka, 2013). Impacts from ‘drought, disease and pests’ are also less severe, as increased #speciesdiversity means there is lower risk of these dangers☠️ impacting every species at once
