We are delighted that will match donations for a proposed new VWT citizen science survey — Marten Month Pine Marten Survey — to help us learn more about where pine martens are in Britain and how people feel about them so that we can focus work where it’s needed most. You can double your donation for pine martens here https://bit.ly/4sRNNht from midday today until 29 April 2026.

Which one’s AI, which one’s real?

AI-generated images are becoming incredibly realistic, especially in nature photography. In many cases, small visual details are now the only reliable way to tell the difference.

This isn’t about tricking people — it’s about awareness. As AI improves, it’s getting harder to know what’s real at a glance.

Always question what you see online 👀

The Weasel Is Disappearing — and Nobody Is Even Counting
A tiny, russet-furred predator slips effortlessly through a narrow mouse tunnel beneath a budding hawthorn hedge, clutching a lifeless field vole in her jaws.

"I patrol every field boundary, keeping your grain safe," she chatters softly, dropping the unnaturally sluggish prey. "But the food is tainted, and no one is watching my family fade."

We often assume that all of Britain’s native mammals are closely monitored and legally protected. In reality, the Weasel (Mustela nivalis) has absolutely zero legal protection and hasn't had an official national population estimate since 1995.

Right now, in early April, females are hunting relentlessly to fuel their spring pregnancies and feed newborn kits. As apex micro-predators, they provide vital, free pest control by naturally regulating mouse and vole populations across our farming landscapes. Yet, without a close season, they can be legally trapped 365 days a year. Worse, they are quietly dying from secondary poisoning after consuming rodenticide-laced prey. Because no government monitoring programme exists, their decline remains politically invisible.

Stop using toxic rodenticides in your gardens or outbuildings, and log any wild sightings with citizen science surveys.

She weighs just sixty grams and protects our harvests. Let us not allow her to vanish into an uncounted silence.
