Gaurav Mishra said: “These are mammals and they have their own particular zones. But, there has been a population surge in Aarey Colony, more vehicles are coming in and out and an unregulated growth in slum housing. It wasn’t happening before - we had our space and they had theirs but now there is a lot of encroachment,”

Simon Nash said: "I think the original target was to breed around 300 pandas, but now they're up to around 600, which is a fantastic achievement, but has created another problem, as most of these animals are now not bred to have the characteristics to survive in the wild," "For many years, pandas couldn't go back into the wild as they were going back to isolated pockets. But what the Chinese authorities have done, which is brilliant, is (the protection of) more of them, and they plan to link them all into one giant reserve, which would mean a better chance of survival in the wild, the ability to survive bamboo dying off, and to interbreed, so they go back into a world with more space and more chances of their own territorial areas"

Kimberley Hockings said: “Treating leprosy in humans is relatively straightforward, especially if it’s diagnosed early enough,” “But for animals that aren’t habituated to humans, such as these particular populations, it’s very difficult to administer antibiotics. There are constraints to treating animals for leprosy and we have to consider the ethical implications of darting chimpanzees, so that makes the question of treatment a complicated one”

Gil Wizen said: “After about an hour, the spider completed most of the sac and was getting ready to lay its eggs inside it, at which point I left the animal to its business,” “Spiders at the crucial stage of egg laying become stressed at the smallest disturbance and this can damage the embryos developing in the fresh eggs”

Fernando Tortato said: “A fragmented and degraded environment offers much lower carrying capacity for jaguar populations and their prey compared to an intact forest,” “It is expected that jaguars will seek more prey-rich environments to maintain their territories.
