Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency
Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.

Selection of Elephant-Grass Genotypes for Forage Production
The objective of this study was to evaluate the agronomic traits of 80 accessions of elephant grass under the soil and weather conditions of Campos dos Goytacazes/RJ, Brazil. The experimental design was set as randomized blocks with 2 replicates. The experiment continued from March 2012 to May 2013, with 5 harvests made in the dry and rainy seasons ...

ABSTRACT In this paper, we explore spider diversity and the effects of habitat types on spider distribution in the three different types of habitats in Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. This serves as an invaluable tool for biodiversity assessment while documenting the presence of spiders taxa across different habitats in the selected study areas.

Evaluation of elephant grass for energy use
The high demand for fossil fuels, and the emission of greenhouse gases by the use of these fuels, make new studies are conducted in order to replace them with alternative sources of energy. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the feasibility of using elephant grass as an energy source, which is widely used in animal feed.

Responses of African Savanna Trees to Large Herbivore Extinction and Rewilding
Trophic rewilding may be a restoration ‘win‐win’ if the return of extirpated wildlife also restores lost ecosystem function, but few studies have addressed whether wildlife reintroduction is capable of reversing changes that occurred during extirpation.
