At the LPI every record is checked using a strict protocol. If a population trend meets our criteria, it’s included! ✅
We don’t compare absolute population sizes - only relative change over time. This makes trends comparable across the LPI, even if methods and units vary. 📊

World Wildlife Fund Canada’s Living Planet Report Canada (LPRC) 2025: Wildlife at Home reveals the most severe average decline in the size of monitored wildlife populations in Canada since WWF-Canada began reporting two decades ago.
WWF-Canada’s Living Planet Report Canada 2025 has found persistent wildlife declines over the last half century #WWF #LivingPlanetReport #biodiversity

But it’s not all doom and gloom! 🌈
🐟31% of species in the #LivingPlanetIndex for #MigratoryFreshwaterFishare increasing on average 📈
🐟And populations not affected by threats locally are increasing 📈
#WorldFishMigrationDay #FishMigration
⚠️The biggest drivers of population decline in #LivingPlanetIndex for #MigratoryFreshwaterFish were habitat degradation, alteration and loss, and overexploitation.
#WorldFishMigrationDay #FishMigration
North America shows one of the smallest declines in #MigratoryFreshwaterFish with a decrease of 35% on average. Could management of fisheries be behind this?

⚠️Europe is particularly affected by #fragmentation of rivers & resulting changes in water flow. There are over 1.2 million barriers across the continent!
But mechanisms are being developed to restore connectivity. #EuropeanBiodiversityStrategy #NatureRestorationLaw
#MigratoryFreshwaterFish declines are widespread…
⚠️ From −28% in Asia-Oceania to −91% in Latin America and Caribbean.
#WorldFishMigrationDay #FishMigration #MigratoryFreshwaterFish #LivingPlanetIndex
That’s nearly as much of a decline as we have seen in #freshwater species in @WWF’s #LPR2022!
