Once depleted and forgotten, native oysters are back in Coffin Bay after moves to revive the "ecological superheroes".​

A hand holds a plant with green leaves and long white thorns.

The karroo thorn can overrun landscapes and make farmland unproductive, so farmers and biosecurity officers are rejoicing at this eradication achievement.​

Farmers welcome a state government decision to extend an "unprotection order" on dingoes and wild dogs, but environmental advocates say the native predators are a vital part of the ecosystem.​

NASA scientists have calculated that Earth will capture a "second moon" on Sunday (Sept. 29). The "mini-moon" comes in the form of the tiny asteroid 2024 PT5, which usually orbits the sun as part of a small asteroid belt that follows Earth. While Earth's primary companion, the moon, has lingered around our planet for around 4 billion years since its formation in the solar system's infancy, this asteroid will be a temporary fixture that won't even see the year out.

The NHC warns that impacts of Helene have the potential to be "life-threatening." Those life-threatening conditions include possible flash and urban flooding this week in areas of northwestern and northern Florida as well as the U.S. Southeast in general, the southern Appalachians and the Upper Tennessee Valley. In some places, flooding could reach about 10 feet (3 meters) above ground level.
