Bogong moths return to Australia in welcome sign
Original: The bogong moths are back! Perhaps they are a sign that all is not lost
Bogong moths have returned, prompting commentary in Australia celebrating their arrival. Writing in The Guardian, a columnist argues the moths should be seen not as an inconvenience but as a blessing, and perhaps a sign that 'all is not lost' for nature. The moths, famous for migrating to the Australian Alps and a vital food source for wildlife such as the endangered mountain pygmy possum, have suffered steep declines in recent years, so their reappearance is being greeted with relief.
Why now: The return of a species that had sharply declined is being read as hopeful environmental news.
