New reporting by the Guardian shed fresh light on the impacts of Google’s deforestation. After the 1,300 acres of pristine boreal forests were reduced to tracts of mud and stumps, fauna which once called the woods home has been forced to vacate.
In the felling-site near the Finnish village of Otanmäki, the ensuing loss of prey has forced packs of wolves to search for food elsewhere: nearby villages.
“We had wolves coming into the village because all the wild animals moved out of the forest,” 53-year-old Otanmäki resident Anni Ranta told the Guardian. “They fled.”
Though Ranta’s family has called the area home for generations, the tumult has her considering whether to move out of Otanmäki for good. | |

This is not to discredit the existence of some underlying tactical or strategic calculations, and it is absolutely not extending credit to the shockingly vile creatures doing it, but when you see a reactionary candidate being disgusting, it is safe to assume that they are doing it because they really believe in it. | |

It’s a crime scene with no victim, no suspect, and no witnesses. All you have is a single severed tail embedded in sticky tree resin. And your only piece of evidence is 99 million years old.
That is the investigation Leonidas-Romanos Davranoglou, a zoologist at Tel Aviv University’s Steinhardt Museum of Natural History, and his team faced when they inspected the semitransparent sliver of fossilized resin, or amber. They had bought the amber from an online seller, thinking the 8-millimeter-long thing inside it was a twig or a piece of insect.
Then, Ph.D. student Dolev Fabrikant inspected the fossil. “Oh, it has scales! This is a lizard tail,” he told Davranoglou.
“I literally almost jumped off my chair,” Davranoglou recalls. “What has been sitting for … a few years now in a drawer actually resolves a very big enigma.”
As the team reports this month in Palaeontologia Electronica, it is likely a lizard purposefully let go of the tail—creating the oldest known direct fossil evidence of this dramatic defensive tactic. | |
