AI SLOP this realistic is INFURIATING. 😡 People keep sending me this saying, "omg it's like your photos," when I travel the world to photograph REAL beetles. Then AI trains on those photos to generate fake "wildlife" like this. People get fooled. Animals lose. Every time. 😤

Disgusting animal abuse! 😡 So SICK of ‘viral videos’ like this, all the rays are DEAD and that one ‘moving’ is obviously being pulled by two fishing lines… Between animal abuse for clicks and AI, social media is rife with wildlife misinformation! 😤

TRILOBITE BEETLES!😍🌿 Some of the coolest bugs in Asia’s rainforests are these female Lycid Beetles, that look like they’re from prehistoric ages! 😱🦕 They retain their larval form as adults and feed on decaying matter all day and night in the leaf litter of the forest! 🍂

PLEASE SHARE! AI slop has become practically impossible to tell apart with wildlife photography and this is about to introduce SO many real life issues! 🚨🦜 ALL these images in this video are AI generated, but they look EXACTLY like the species down to the feather. 😵‍💫(1/4)

WASP OR MOTH!? 🐝🤯 One of the most incredible mimics in the world, this Tiger Moth (Orcynia calcarata) looks so much like a wasp I was almost nervous holding it! 😳 It always amazes me how evolution has driven so many species of insects in the Amazon to mimic wasps! 💛🖤

WAKE UP Western Australia - NO more land clearing!! 🚜❌ Your diversity IS comparable to the Amazon! 🪲🌸 I can’t believe in 2026 we still have people that don’t understand how incredibly biodiverse, unique and threatened the flora and fauna of Western Australia is - especially a member of council! 😤 There is almost no where else on earth so diverse with endemic species that you can drive an hour and pass through the habitat of half a dozen different Peacock Spiders and dozens of orchid species! ☀️ I don’t care if it’s only one tree or one bush, we have lost SO much bushland in the south-west and we are guaranteed to have caused so many EXTINCTIONS already of species that never got the chance to be documented! ‼️ When will we understand that constant destruction of these habitats is not progress? We are so lucky to live in the most biodiverse country on earth and we need to start PRIORITISING the little remaining but incredible habitats of the south-west! 👊

🚨I am absolutely beyond shocked at how invasive and fire-fuelling Buffel Grass has COMPLETELY overtaken eco-systems in central Australia recently. 🔥 Everywhere we go, driving for hours, it honestly beggars belief. This is an absolute climate and biodiversity emergency. 🦎❌ We are witnessing potential irreversible changes to one of the most biodiverse arid eco-systems in the world. Fuelling fires, changing and completely overtaking landscapes. Biodiversity that is dependent on native grasses and less intense fires will unavoidably become less abundant or disappear. Honestly heartbreaking. How this isn’t news or a national priority is mind-boggling.

CRUSTACEAN IN A TREE!! 🤯🤯🤯 I have seen it all now!! A HUGE Lamington Spiny Crayfish just WALKING up a tree in Queensland’s rainforests!!🌳💙 These AMAZING crayfish are a threatened species and they only live in the picturesque mountain streams of the Gold Coast hinterland! 💦 During heavy rain they move from stream to stream and we found half a dozen wandering on the floor, but this one up a tree took us by surprise! 🫨
