"Around the world, Earth’s natural environments are being destroyed at a truly
shocking scale. It means places animals need to shelter and breed, such as tree
hollows, rock crevices and reefs, are disappearing.
The only long-term way to protect these animals is to stop destroying their
homes. But political resistance, financial interests and other factors often
work to prevent this. So scientists must get creative to try and hold off
extinction in the short term.
One way they do this is to create artificial habitat structures. Our new
research, released today, examines how ingenious, high-tech innovation is
making some structures more effective.
But artificial habitats are not a silver bullet. Some can harm animals, and
they can be used by developers to distract from the damage their projects
cause."
