Here's a wonderful reminder that protecting nature really can make a difference.
A new study by the Seychelles Islands Foundation and the University of Exeter has estimated that around 180,000 giant tortoises are living freely on Aldabra Atoll in the Indian Ocean.
It's a remarkable conservation story. In the 19th century, exploitation reduced the island's giant tortoise population to fewer than 1,000. Decades of protection have helped the species recover, and researchers now describe the population as healthy and stable.
There are still challenges ahead, including climate change and invasive species, but the findings demonstrate what long-term dedication to conservation can achieve.
Positive change doesn't always happen overnight. Sometimes it's the result of people caring, working together and refusing to give up.
