A single marbled crayfish can start a population alone. 🦞
In the Netherlands, we're using eDNA to protect ponds from this rapid invader. At this stage, control is still possible!

La #ministra de #Sanidad dice que ya ha eliminado las #guardias de #24h
No ha mentido.
Simplemente NO HA DICHO LA VERDAD.
Muchos #médicos después de salir de una jornada laboral de 8 horas, deben entrar a una guardia de 17h.
Efectivamente, no son de 24, pero el resultado es el mismo o peor.🩺🩻
#Biodiversity doesn’t follow borders — but #conservation policy still does. A new policy brief, inspired by Haubrock et al. (2026), calls for cross-border coordination, open ecological data, and stronger early warning to tackle #InvasiveSpecies. Supported by #GuardIAS
