Pine forests in Chubut, Argentine Patagonia, on January 26, 2026 are largely made up of introduced exotic species that have spread across the Andean region, creating ''green deserts.'' Acting as heavy fuel loads, they increase the risk of uncontrollable wildfires, especially after previous fires that trigger dense regeneration. Originally planted for production, these non-native pines now behave as invasive species, outcompeting native forests and complicating firefighting efforts, particularly in urban-rural areas. Recent fires highlight the danger of unmanaged pine expansion, especially near protected areas, where extreme weather and strong winds make fire control even more difficult.

Artist and activist Wanggi Hoed takes part in a solidarity action for primates during the commemoration of Indonesia's Primate Day in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. The action serves as an expression of concern over the ongoing oppression, abuse, hunting, trade, and exploitation of primates, including long-tailed macaques and pig-tailed macaques. According to data from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis) is listed as Endangered since 2022. Through the action, participants urge the government to designate long-tailed macaques and pig-tailed macaques as protected species in Indonesia amid escalating threats from habitat destruction, forest conversion, and continued exploitation.
