Conditional License Granted for H5N2 Avian Influenza Vaccine
Zoetis received a conditional license from the USDA for its H5N2 avian influenza vaccine for chickens, offering an alternative to culling infected flocks; however, the vaccine's effectiveness is limited due to a mismatch with the circulating strain.

Scottish Wolf Reintroduction Could Store 1 Million Tonnes of CO2 Annually
Reintroducing wolves to the Scottish Highlands could increase carbon dioxide storage in expanding native woodlands by 1 million tonnes annually, reducing overgrazing by deer, and contributing to 5% of UK woodland carbon removal targets, despite potential conflict with farmers and deer stalkers.

Earth's Inner Core Deforms, Potentially Affecting Magnetic Field
New research reveals that the Earth's inner core has deformed by approximately 100 meters or more in places over the past two decades, potentially impacting the planet's magnetic field; scientists used seismic wave data from 1991-2023 to make this discovery.

Asteroid 2024 YR4: 2.2% Chance of Earth Impact in 2032
Asteroid 2024 YR4 has a 2.2% chance of impacting Earth on December 22, 2032, potentially causing city-level devastation based on its estimated size (40-90 meters) and trajectory. NASA and ESA are using the James Webb Space Telescope to refine its orbit and potential impact zone.

Scottish Wolf Reintroduction to Sequester One Million Tons of CO2 Annually
A University of Leeds study proposes reintroducing wolves to the Scottish Highlands to curb red deer overpopulation, which hinders forest regeneration; the model predicts that approximately 167 wolves could sequester one million tons of CO2 annually.
