AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoWeather Watch: Meteorologists are tracking a newly formed tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic south of the Cabo Verde islands, with low odds of development over the next week (about a 20% chance) and a smaller chance of slow growth off the African coast; Saharan dust and the La Niña-to-El Niño shift are currently limiting activity. Wildlife & Biodiversity: New field research in Guinea-Bissau’s Boé National Park is examining rare “accumulative stone throwing” by wild chimpanzees—repeatedly hitting the same trees and possibly communicating through the pattern. Conservation Spotlight: A growing focus is building around the West African slender-snouted crocodile (Mecistops cataphractus), a little-studied species that climbs into trees and hunts in forest waterways, raising concerns that it may be more threatened than current data suggest.
