Breeding programme boosts numbers of endangered crayfish species - Guardian: Science
A breeding programme has boosted the numbers of an endangered species of British crayfish. The white-clawed crayfish is threatened by a deadly "crayfish plague" and competition from a brash American cousin that was introduced to the country in the late 1970s.

The Bechstein's bat, one of the country's rarest mammals, has shown a marked decline while the number of soprano pipistrelle bats has fallen by 46% in six years.
