    From the comments of the crosspost on the solarpunk community:

    This reads like AI garbage

    This is the actual source that the article uses for all its claims: https://bren.ucsb.edu/events/response-endangered-san-joaquin-kit-foxes-solar-farms

    Not quite the same conclusions between the two…

      Fair enough. I should have dug further to find the original UCSB source. Just checking the news for news about foxes while excluding the vile Fox News is not good enough.

        Maybe delete the post and repost the OG source?
