CONSERVATION

Saimaa ringed seal conservation
In eastern Finland lives an endemic seal subspecies that's very rare. Only about 500 of them survive, a number that's growing, but slowly. An EU-funded program aims at preserving their future with innovative methods.

​Published in The Guardian in 2024, in Terre Sauvage in 2025.
Sea trout of Helsinki
Conservationists are encouraging and monitoring the return of sea trout (Brown trout, Salmo trutta) to the urban brooks of Helsinki by restoring their habitat, tearing dams down and counting the baby fish.
Wildlife sanctuaries in New Zealand
Introduced mammals have wrecked havoc on the native wildlife of New Zealand. Predator-free islands and fenced sanctuaries are providing a safe place for them to thrive until the invaders have been eradicated from the whole country.
