Is there something peculiarly British about celebrating wildlife species on banknotes but only grudgingly (or not at all) doing things to avert their decline?

Next UK banknotes to feature barn owls, bumblebees, puffins and hedgehogs
Four native species selected after consultation, but which one adorns which note is yet to be decided Bees, barn owls, puffins and hedgehogs have been picked to feature on the next generation of banknotes, the Bank of England has announced. The quartet of creatures were selected after a large-scale consultation settled on wild animals as the theme, with members of the public then asked to pick their favourites out of 18 options divided into three categories.

I had 2 Bichon Frise sisters, Nelly and Sally, for 18 years. I lost them 4 years ago and just typing this chokes me up a bit.

As a species, we don't deserve dogs, but I am glad they chose us anyway.

📊 #TidyTuesday – 2026 W41 | AmphibiaWeb

🔗: stevenponce.netlify.app/data_visuali...
.
#rstats | #dataviz | #ggplot2
AmphibiaWeb has written accounts for 233 of the 1,170 native frog species it lists for Brazil (20%). A 15-square grid, one per country with at least 250 native species, runs from the largest list to the smallest; each square's area shows the number of native species, and a burgundy fill rising from the bottom shows the share with an account. In 13 of the 15 countries, the share sits between 18% and 30%; Madagascar (274 of 441, 62%) and Australia (221 of 258, 86%) stand apart. An account means a description, life-history, or distribution text on AmphibiaWeb; a missing account does not mean a species lacks published research. Species found in several countries count in each list, so lists cannot be added together. Introduced occurrences and 31 species with ambiguous country codes are excluded.

18. In addition to humans and elves, the world is inhabited by other sapient species like fauns, sphinxes, anzuli (sort of like flightless bird people), and pandrosians (sort of like fish/reptilian people).
