Our Island is full of cat lovers, with one in four Tasmanians owned by a feline friend. But either as cherished companions, or cunning predators, cats play a complex role in our environment. Hear from our speakers to find out about the impacts on Tasmania’s unique ecosystem and consider whether cats are pets, or pests.

In this video I go over the various (few) scenarios where spine surgery may be the answer. In short it should mostly be used to preserve our neurological function (ability to use your arms and legs) by protecting our spinal cord and nerves. There are even fewer scenarios where it may help for back pain alone.

Please enquire about consultations, remote (video) consultations, our One-Stop Spine clinic and personalised care programmes.

When is spine surgery the answer

PhD Candidate Peter Hamnett of the Global Ecology Laboratory (http://globalecologyflinders.com) at Flinders University discusses the recent eradication of feral pigs from Kangaroo Island in conjunction with Biosecurity SA, as well as the paper he recently led to determine optimal and cost-effective control options for pig removal (http://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.70082). This interview was with Brooke Neindorf of ABC Rural (Eyre Peninsula) that aired on SA Country hour last week.

Eradication of feral pigs from Kangaroo Island - interview with Peter Hamnett

When it comes to public awareness of invasive species in the northeastern U.S., spotted lanternfly is the undisputed media darling. But in PA, the big picture is both more complex and less visible -- calling for a collaborative and landscape-specific approach to management. Amy Jewitt, an expert with the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy and a member of the Governor's Invasive Species Council, explains why the PRISM (Partnerships for Regional Invasive Species Management) model is working in other states, and how Pennsylvania could replicate that success.

On this episode of the Kentucky Afield Podcast, we’re talking wild pigs and wild water! Biologist Terri Brunjes from KDFWR’s wild pig program joins us to break down the damage feral swine cause in Kentucky—and what’s being done to root them out. We also swap stories about kayaking and whitewater paddling, a shared passion among those on the show. Tune in for a fun and informative ride from the backwoods to the backwaters, and remember to report wild pigs or wild pig sign if you see it!

Biological control efforts have been encouraged by experts and by now you’ve probably seen a lot of information telling the public to kill these insects when they’re spotted. So, other than humans squishing them when we occasionally see them, is there any other way to potentially counter these quickly reproducing-fast spreading bugs? There just might be!

TRUE FROGS - AMERICAN BULLFROG - Lithobates catesbeianus
A small-but-growing colony chorusing at night in the Promontory Ponds of Seattle's Warren G. Magnuson Park. American Bullfrogs are a destructive invasive species in the western States of the US. That a colony has managed to take up residence and thrive in an urban nature preserve is highly alarming.
The focus is shifting, moving between individual frogs in the foreground, with others audible in the background between roars. It's frustrating dealing with Bullfrogs. I love them. It's not their fault they were introduced to the Western States. They just live their lives as they come. Their ecological impact is significant, affecting population numbers of entire species of native frogs and fishes.

KRYPTYK joins Rhtyhm. with three uncut raw techno tools.

'Private Music' presents a study in raw, hypnotic techno, each track constructed with a clear intent to immerse the listener in tightly controlled rhythms and atmospheres.

'Archived Footage' establishes a framework of rolling percussion and restrained textures, its cyclical structure creating a sense of persistence that defines the track's tension. 'Invasive Species' develops this further with sharper tonal elements and a driving low-end, engineered to spread across the floor with momentum. 'Longhorn' concludes the release with the most direct and forceful approach, a track built on weight, propulsion, and hypnotic layering designed for peak-time application.

Across the three productions, KRYPTYC demonstrates a deliberate approach to minimalism and repetition, refining raw components into precise, functional techno built for the club.

Enjoy.

“Facehugger Lab Atmosphere” captures a sterile sci-fi lab under alien threat, glassy tones, bubbling tanks, and eerie rustles build an unsettling sense of containment. 
Cold, alert, and invasive.

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available, human or machine, as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.
