Thought to be extinct in 1992, 60 new baby Siamese crocodiles have hatched in Cambodia
In 1992, Siamese crocodiles were listed as ‘virtually extinct,’ as wild populations dwindled from decades of poaching. In addition to habitat degradation, the crocs were hunted for their soft, reptilian hides used in the fashion industry.
But now, in “a real sign of hope,” the largest population of the endangered species has hatched this century, with 60 babies born in Cambodia’s Cardamom National Park.
Most recently, locals discovered three nests in an area where captive-bred crocodiles had never been released before. And miraculously, just a few days later, two other nests were discovered in the national park.
Look for the helpers:The crocodiles’ comeback has been decades in the making. After their declared extinction, a tiny group was rediscovered in the remote Cardamom Mountains in 2000 — where the Indigenous population of the Chorng people had been protecting them for years.

Thanks to 13 young people, Hawaii agreed to take “groundbreaking” action to decarbonize its transportation system
A group of 13 young people in Hawaii argued the state was violating their constitutional rights by building infrastructure that exacerbates greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
While the latest in a growing movement of young people taking their climate cases to court, it’s reportedly the first-ever youth-led climate case calling for zero emissions in transportation. And they recently won their case, with the state agreeing to take action to decarbonize its transportation by 2045.
The youths accused the state of prioritizing highway construction and similar projects that guarantee the use of fossil fuels, rather than those that reduce emissions.
Had it gone to trial, it would have been just the second trial in the U.S. from young people arguing that a state’s actions violated their right to a safe, healthy future.
