Lawyer argues review of CPA action in blues case is critical
Blue iguana (photo by Luke Harding) (CNS): The lawyer representing the National Conservation Council, Chris Buttler KC, argued that the court needs to review the actions of the Central Planning Authority in the wake of unlawful land clearing of pristine habitat in blue iguana territory in East End. Buttler said the case is far more than an academic legal exercise. Until it is made clear that the…

For the first five years of Franca Delfina Oliveira's life, she grew up in Salvadar, Bahia, Brazil with her parents, Rafael and Bruna Oliveira, and her older sister, Beatriz. Both of her parents were massive animal and nature lovers and held careers in helping the planet. The couple had always wanted to start up their own conservation organization after working with a wide variety of them in their home of Salvador. And so, after moving to the States when their daughters were young, they began to work towards making their life-long dream come true.
ᴀꜰᴛᴇʀ ᴄᴏᴍɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ʙʟᴜᴇ ʜᴀʀʙᴏʀ, ɪʟʟɪɴᴏɪꜱ…
The Bahia Wildlife Sanctuary has been opened since 2004, and Franca's whole world had been the sanctuary and the Oliveira family farm. Growing up and knowing what she wanted to do, she eventually earned her Wildlife Conservation degree through Unity Environmental University distant learning, spending those years traveling around the globe and volunteering for a wide variety of organizations, especially those for wildlife and conservation efforts. After earning her degree, she moved to Denver full-time and spent twenty-four months getting her vet tech degree from Bel Rea Vet Tech school. She got a job as a vet tech at the Denver Aquarium, working there for a year until, at the age of twenty-four, her mother died from a heart attack. Resulting in her returning back to Blue Harbor and spending the past two years working as a vet tech at the sanctuary and even getting a second, part-time job at Earthwave for an extra income. In fall of 2024, she officially started part-time schooling at Blue Harbor University so that she could earn her masters in Zoology.

🦥ꜱᴏᴍᴇ Qᴜɪᴄᴋ ꜰᴀᴄᴛꜱ & ᴛɪᴅʙɪᴛꜱ
🦜While Franca had been living in Denver, the aquarium saved a truck full of animals from a poaching ring. One of those animals ended up being a Scarlet macaw. The bird had lost half of its left wing from the time it'd been taken from Costa Rica to Denver, and Franca had been in charge of taking care of her. The two became bonded and now, Iria the Macaw is under Franca's care. The two are rarely apart from each other.
🦜She had a reputation throughout her schoolyears as being the "Animal Lover Girl", always ready to talk about anyone and everyone about animals and better ways to help the planet. She even started up an Earth Club in high school. Not many people joined it, however.
🦜While her family has always been comfortable money-wise, they're not rich. All of their money has been put into the sanctuary and farm, ensuring that the animals and plants had the best care possible. They live in a fairly reasonable sized log cabin that they worked on themselves, and through the help of friends and extended family members whenever they visited from Brazil.
🦜With that being said, the Oliveiras made sure to visit their home country at least three times a year: Carnaval season, the middle of summer, and around Christmas. Staying connected to their family and culture is highly important to them, though they've been struggling to do so since Franca's mother passed.
🦜The farm is home to four horses, ten cows, a herd of sheep, three goats, five chickens and a rooster, two cats, two dogs, and a pond full of freshwater fish and frogs. They live next to the river and are about a ten minute walk, three minute drive, from the sanctuary.
🦜Along with Iria, Franca is the happy animal mama of Dulce the iguana, Bruna the guinea pig, and Philip the grandpa dark calico cat. And yes, she understands how rare Philip is. But no, she refuses to sell him. She either rescued or adopted all of her babies and loves them all greatly.
🦜Franca is primarily a vegan, but will sometimes adjust to a pescatarian diet every now and then.
🦜She is a certified adventure guide, having earned her certificate through Pure Explorations after partaking in their Nepal Adventure Guide Program.
🦜Summer after she graduated from high school and before she went off to Nepal (as mentioned above), she'd been able to go to Alaska for awhile to participate in Girls On Ice (now known as Inspiring Girls Expeditions): a mountaineering expedition with an alpine ecosystems focus.
🦜As mentioned in her bio, she participated in both SEAmester and Semester at Sea. She spent her fall semester with the first study abroad program, sailing from the Mediterranean, across the Atlantic, before making her way to the Caribbean. For Semester at Sea, she journeyed to Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, India), Africa (Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Morocco), and Europe (Spain and Germany). I have a wc in mind for an ex-lover that she had been on both voyages with that became her biggest "what if", if anyone's interested!
🦜The best way to describe Franca's style is "hippie, granola girl with Brazilian and global touches". She loves brands like Wondery, Inkkas, FARM Rio, Sandcloud, Fahlo bracelets, Live Your Legend bracelets, Pura Vida bracelets, and others that's all about the great outdoors that has conservation efforts and that are connected to her culture and other cultures that she's able to appreciate. This will be further touched on in other posts.

Interactive experiences, such as feeding animals or visiting conservation centers, are often included, making the experience fun and engaging for young explorers.
Solo Adventurer Tours
For solo travelers, wildlife holiday packages provide a sense of adventure and freedom. Solo travelers can choose flexible itineraries that allow them to explore at their own pace. Whether it’s a private safari or a group adventure, solo travelers will find that wildlife tours offer plenty of opportunities to meet new people and share experiences.
Group and Luxury Wildlife Packages
Group wildlife tours are perfect for social travelers who enjoy shared experiences. These packages often include group activities like guided treks, safaris, and evening campfires. For those seeking a more luxurious experience, many wildlife package holidays offer premium accommodations in eco-lodges, private safaris, and exclusive access to wildlife reserves.
Essential Gear and Preparation for Wildlife Tours
Preparation is key to ensuring a successful wildlife tour. Whether it’s a multi-day safari or a birdwatching expedition, having the right gear can make all the difference.
Photography Gear for Capturing Wildlife
Photography is a major part of any wildlife adventure. Travelers should bring appropriate cameras and lenses to capture close-up shots of animals. Long-range zoom lenses are particularly useful for safaris, where animals may be observed from a distance. Many wildlife holiday packages also offer guided photography tours, where experts help travelers find the best spots for wildlife photography.
Outdoor Clothing and Safety Gear
Comfortable clothing is essential for outdoor adventures. Lightweight, breathable fabrics are ideal for hot climates, while waterproof jackets and boots are recommended for rainforest tours. Safety gear, such as sun protection and insect repellent, should also be included in your packing list. Guides often provide safety briefings before tours to ensure travelers know how to interact with wildlife safely.
The Importance of Ethical Wildlife Tourism
Ethical wildlife tourism is vital to preserving ecosystems and protecting endangered species. Many wildlife tour packages emphasize sustainable practices that ensure minimal impact on the environment. These tours often work closely with conservation organizations to support wildlife protection and habitat restoration efforts.
Ethical Wildlife Tourism Practices
Travelers are encouraged to choose wildlife holiday packages that prioritize ethical tourism. This includes staying in eco-friendly lodges, supporting local conservation projects, and respecting wildlife by maintaining a safe distance. Responsible tourism helps protect ecosystems and ensures that future generations can enjoy the beauty of the wild.

[ad_1] Rugged, windswept, and ripe for adventures, the best remote islands for wildlife spotting are a far cry from your typical all-inclusive Caribbean getaways. And while I’m all for some rest and relaxation on a sun-bleached beach, there’s something truly special about seeking serenity on one of our planet’s wild isles. Whether I was whale-watching against the verdant backdrop of Dominica, encountering penguins on the Falklands, or being left in awe by Indonesia’s Komodo dragons, all of these remote islands share one common thread: they were home to some of my most unforgettable travel memories. Of course, deciding on the best islands to visit will vary depending on your interest, but if you’re seeking that ‘edge of the world’ feeling, then these remote isles are the perfect choice for spotting wildlife, relishing adventures, and reconnecting with raw nature. A whale’s tail sighted from a boat in the Azores The Azores For verdant volcanic walks and whale-watching Starting a little closer to home, especially if you’re travelling from Europe or the west coast of the USA, the Azores – an autonomous archipelago of Portugal – are a true adventure playground. Rising spectacularly from the cerulean waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the nine inhabited volcanic islands all have similarities, such as epic hiking trails and verdant vistas, while retaining their own personalities. Long an in-the-know wild isles getaway, the Azores have had the spotlight turned on them in recent years. This is in no small part to being a year-round cetacean spotting destination, although the peak whale-watching season runs from April until October. From all the islands, boat trips depart into the deep blue to spot these magnificent marine mammals, with São Miguel – the largest island and gateway to the group – offering the most extensive choice of sailings. But apart from being renowned wildlife islands, the Azores are also riddled with handsome hiking trails that pass through dense forests, climb up soaring peaks, and linger alongside colourful hydrangeas. São Miguel is also loved for its geothermal activity and hot springs, and surfers and water sports fanatics are equally spoiled. While there are no ferry sailings to the islands from Portugal, you can get around the Azores without a car, using public transport and some inter-island ferries. However, a vehicle and domestic flights are needed to explore every corner of the archipelago. The Galapagos Islands For endemic wildlife, giant tortoises, iguanas and island-hopping Renowned for their pristine landscapes, conservation projects, and endemic fauna and flora, the Galapagos Islands are some of the most wildlife-heavy isles you can visit. Sitting around 600 miles off Ecuador’s coast, the best way to see the island’s native wildlife is by choosing from one of the many exciting Galapagos island expeditions available, as island-hopping by boat will allow you to cover more ground across the 120-plus island archipelago. The most famous resident of these unspoilt isles is arguably the Galápagos giant tortoise, which can grow to around 5 feet. Still, with hundreds of endemic species (including birds and marine life) calling the island group home, there are plenty more wildlife spotting opportunities to get excited about. Standouts include the Galapagos penguin, Lava lizards, Marine iguanas and the Galapagos hawk, a scarce bird of prey. Then there are the numerous non-native species, such as sea lions, albatrosses, and the colourful Lightfoot crabs. Snorkelling and scuba diving are equally excellent ways to experience the underwater side of the Galapagos, with sea turtles, rays, and shoals of tropical fish thriving in the protected waters. But these remote islands aren’t only about seeing the residents; there are plenty of (responsible) low-impact adventure activities you can enjoy during your visit. Hiking around active volcanoes, surfing the less-crowded
swell and kayaking amongst sea lions are just three of the adventures awaiting these near Eden-like isles. Kayak around the shipwrecks and wildlife of Stanley, The Falkland Islands The Falkland Islands For solitude, sheep, seals and penguins aplenty Forget any ideas of a luxury island escape on the Falkland Islands. These rough, rugged, and windswept outposts of the United Kingdom are true wild isles where sheep outnumber humans by the thousands. But the main reason to visit the Falkland Islands isn’t the little lambs; it’s the million-plus penguins that nest across the archipelago. With less than 20 of the numerous isles inhabited – and even then, some only have a population of two – these are genuinely remote islands where days can pass without a conversation, let alone seeing a convenience store. Sadly, the islands are still remembered by many for one thing only: the Falkland Islands War with Argentina, which developed due to the (ongoing) dispute over the Islas Malvinas – the Spanish name for the archipelago. But if you ask me, the real owners of these lands are the five species of penguins you can spot here. Rockhopper, Macaroni, Magellanic, King and Gentoo all have vast colonies, and seeing them bunched together at Volunteer Point is one image which will be forever imprinted on my mind. Over the two weeks I spent in the Falkland Islands, I embarked on various adventures, starting with an Army flight leaving an RAF base in the UK. Kayaking around shipwrecks and playful seals, boarding tiny planes to reach the outer isles, and taking hauntingly silent walks to white sand beaches are all staples of a trip here. But it was the time spent watching playful penguins diving into the waters that was most precious. However, to see the grandest of the species – the Emperor penguin – you’ll need to head even further south. Seeing a colony of penguins was a dream come true Antarctica For snow-coated expeditions and Emperor penguins If there’s one true end-of-the-world adventure, it’s Antarctica. Sure, it’s the seventh continent rather than one island, but if anything, that adds to the experience, as you’ll need to opt for one of the ever-growing cruises around Antarctica, which depart from South America, to visit. An absolute bucket-list dream for me, a trip to this vast icy land is certainly not wallet-friendly, though it’s undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Still, with rising concerns about the effects of tourism here, keeping sustainability and responsibility in mind when planning your trip is a must. Luckily, it’s a place for learning, and ships voyaging here will be equipped with local specialists and marine biologists to preserve the pristine landscape. The main wildlife draw for many is the chance to see the endemic Emperor penguins, which can grow to be four feet tall. You’ll also have the chance to spot other species of penguins, whales (including Orcas), seals and various sea birds. Kayaking across the mirror-like waters while admiring the icy landscapes is an absolute dream of mine, and I honestly can’t think of any better wild island adventure. Wildlife sightings aplenty await The Faroe Islands For secluded whale-watching and puffins with decent public transport One of The Faroe Islands’s biggest appeals is that no expedition ship is needed to explore them, as the 18 islands have a surprisingly impressive network of subsided buses and ferries. You can even reach the autonomous archipelago of Denmark by ferry from the mainland, with the ferry then continuing to Iceland. I’m currently in the final stages of planning my dream trip here, and in just a few weeks, I’ll be setting foot in Tórshavn, the regional capital. The main appeal for me is to understand the remote way of life and learn more about the Faroese people, although wildlife plays a big part in bringing the small annual contingent of visitors. Puffins are the big draw for many, and it’s believed around half a million pairs breed across the archipelago.
The best place to spot them is the island of Mykines, although the breeding season only runs from April until September. Dolphin and whale sightings are possible year-round, meaning those who brave the foggy and dark winters might even get a sighting. Other attractions on these remote islands include turf-roofed houses, dramatic waterfalls plunging into the chilly ocean, and optical illusion floating above the near-vertical cliffs. It looks like a destination where you can both lose and find yourself, and I’m excited to report my findings in a few weeks. Pin it: Epic Island Escapes for Wildlife and Adventures [ad_2] Source link

One by one, her allies fall. She hears the thumping of bodies hitting the ground. It’s just training, she reminds herself, knuckles paling around her bow, they’re not dead. Though she feels wary on her feet, she must push herself to finish or come close to it.
Just as she feels steady enough on her own feet thanks to one of her allies, she feels an intense searing pain to her at the same time. Green eyes glance over to the last standing partner who was in no better, if worse condition. At this rate, retreating is the viable option, but if they couldn’t do that here then they must conserve as much energy as they can.
Though the aquatic creatures seemed to be on the opposing side, it appears they seem to soften any blow that comes from their overseer. Obedient animals or they are perhaps benevolent by nature. It eases her a little to think the latter.
Sue tucks her bow away and calls within herself to listen to nature. Though she has no certainty what other creature she could find, if it is similar in nature, then it may be drawn by foliage. She carefully surveys their surroundings and plucks some greens and a couple of edible flowers to entice whatever else may be out there.
Sue summons AQUATIC FAMILIAR BLUE IGUANA! [Roll: 3; success]; HEROIDES’ CANTO activates.
There’s a scuffle in bushes before a claw emerges soon revealing an iguana flicking its tongue at the items in her hands. Though it isn’t much, once all three creatures are lined side by side, they seem to communicate with one another and disappear just as fast.
Drunken Chalicebearer 19.5/20HP is stunned and can’t move!
The prickling from the terrain lifts and there’s a groan coming from up ahead. The man with an easy grin on his face is suddenly frozen, eyes wide and mouth agape.
“He is stunned,” Sue calls out to the professor. Though this should be better for them, she could not help but think the opposite. There is a reason all three animals left, something bigger is coming. “Something feels off here… Conserve your energy, I have a feeling this is not the end.”
Omen activates! Sue 3.5/10HP takes -0 HP [Sue 3.5/10HP]
The ground shakes and brings her back down to her feet. The sea horse reemerges and from what she could tell, it is still docile. Listen to the call of nature. She looks to her hands that still carry a bit of leafy greens. Carefully, she crawls around to search for one of the other animals.
Sue summons AQUATIC FAMILIAR SEA TURTLE [Roll: 1; Success]
The turtle reenters the scene, and she feels a pang of relief that their new friends are not lost forever. She looks to Niles briefly before taking a deep breath and readying her bow, preparing for what is to come.
