We’ve entered an era of long-term drought, and that’s affecting dry forests in the Western U.S. in a lot of ways. Read our latest story on how TNC and partners are helping dry forest ecosystems adapt to drought. https://nature.ly/4aOn27a Illustration created by Erica Simek Sloniker/TNC

Diagram illustrating the effects of long-term drought on western dry forests. It features a labeled, numbered list with corresponding visuals: 1) heat pulling moisture from trees and soil, 2) less snowpack, 3) landslides after extreme weather, 4) large-scale tree mortality, 5) disease and poor tree health, 6) lower river flows, 7) extended fire season.

Protecting bats isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s also, as it happens, the cheap thing to do. Saving bats is just… very good economics. Need more convincing? Here are 6 more reasons protecting nature is the smartest investment we can make: https://nature.ly/4ga9HcU 🎨 Mikhaila Markham/TNC

A comic strip featuring a bat and the night sky. In the first panel, the bat flies at dusk, thinking, "Midnight snack or was that lunch?" The second panel shows silhouettes sitting with a musical note and the bat above. The person says, "Strange... not a single mosquito all night," with a figure responding, "I know! It's magical." The third panel depicts the bat thinking, "Magic? Hah. Magic. Right." The fourth panel highlights the bat proclaiming "because of meeee!" at the onlookers who are unaware. The bottom credits The Nature Conservancy and Mikhaila Markham.
