In a conservation haven free from invasive predators but containing chuditch, we were unable to detect any loss of anti-predator traits from the resident woylies! Could this be another tool for conservation managers? Read more here: doi.org/10.1002/ece3.11668

The Buzludzha Monument in Bulgaria is one of the world's strangest buildings.
It's a sort of concrete UFO in the mountains which has been totally abandoned since 1989.
And it also represents one of the strangest architectural movements in history...
