A mischievous red squirrel wreaks havoc in a woodland while searching for snacks. The squirrel's foraging activity disturbs the local vegetation and can alter food availability for other species. A separate record documents life blooming on the volcanic island of Surtsey, showing organisms establishing on fresh volcanic substrate. The Surtsey record indicates progressive colonization of newly formed ground by living organisms. The events are dated to 50 years ago and are linked to DOI: https://doi.org/10.1038/d41586-025-03456-z. Archival material may include images and language now regarded as offensive or harmful.
