Replacing wild herbivores with livestock hurting insects in Himalayas
Friday, 21 February 2025 A 15-year study in India's Spiti Valley revealed that replacing wild herbivores with livestock significantly affects ground-dwelling arthropods.

A magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck northern Iran near the country’s space and missile complex, raising questions about its nuclear ambitions. The quake, recorded at a shallow depth of just 3 km, has fueled speculation of possible underground tests—especially given a similar quake during the Iran–Israel war. Iran sits on the seismically active Alpine-Himalayan belt, averaging over 2,100 quakes annually, but its proximity to sensitive sites is reigniting global concerns. Officials deny any nuclear link, insisting Tehran won’t negotiate under external threats.
