have been shipped from entering the jest to river at the port because of the risk in the lighthouse, which is what i blame lima hopkins. best no landmarks. well, that's it for me in the nitro. gotta f, as we'll have more international headlines for you at the top of the our dock film is up next with a look at how big cities are super charge in evolution. and remember, you can always get all the latest news and updates on our website. that's d w dot com. i'm aaron tilton, berlin. thank you very much for joining us. music . 50 years ago, the international gathering of peace and cooperation becomes the scene of a horrible tragedy. arab terrors, armed with sub machine guns, went to the headquarters of the israeli team and immediately killed one man. they're all gone. how i witnesses experienced the terrible events,

the long shadow of the $972.00 olympic massacre? start september 3rd on d w. busy ah, in a lot of ways you can think of cities as one of the largest unplanned experiments of all time. mm. that these are places we call them extreme heavy. that's really there are places where there is a lot of opportunity. and at the same time, there's also challenges as all cities, sprint, how will nature respond? will plants and animals dwindle? will they adapt to up in life? and what kind of new interactions will we see in the city?

in the historic french town of, i'll be biologist frederick song to keep an eye on his catfish. in 1983 fishermen released these eastern european fish into the river time to day there at the top of the river's food chain. where you seduce i spotted on to buff. this is the fascinating species because we know so little about them. there are many myths that people believe even that they eat dogs. there are many stories like this yank, or you could just walk. the biologist is interested in the behavior of the large fish that circle the reservoir basins. on 5th on i think 130, but we work with fishermen to tag the fish and cala. they contacted us after observing very strange behavior in the fish here salvage conflict along it,

cause you see i'll be the man my landscape at the city foster's new encounters between species. lee, buell ease, latigion have never had to face predators from the water than the holidays. instead they scanned the sky for birds of prey, egan, you see the pigeons approached the water to bathe and drink sometimes about misses the narrow strip of safe ground and touches down in open water of it with your the catfish don't really see the pigeon and some fit, but once they sense the birds movement in the water with their barble silly fuel, then they strike i should offer. ah, scientists observed the can't fishes new hunting tactic for the 1st time in 2010.

here in al b, pigeons are no longer safe on the water. the city is bringing together new predators and pray for me. for some catfish here, pigeons now account for up to 40 percent of their prey. blue . they're suddenly this ecological interaction, which allows for evolution to start to improve the burt catching ability of the catch fish and also to improve the escape ability of the pension. so you can expect that all these new interactions are also causing new evolutionary dynamics. dont', evolutionary biologists minnow. she'll thompson researches the adaptation of wildlife

to the city. darwin's theory he believes, has gone up and ah, evolution is evolutionary change. so really genetic change in wild animals and plants in cities. it's all about understanding how species will be able to survive in this very human dominated context cities, a homo sapiens, most extreme intervention in nature with concrete and steel. we create new landscapes and alter the face of the us. ready already most people live in cities rather than in the countryside. how does this influence evolution, the development of new species? what selection precious does the city create? a summer evening in the dance capital amsterdam in the fond dell park in the center

of the city biologist, men oh, shoot 1000 uses a light trap to catch insects. oh, he's leading a citizen science project to explore urban nature. aah! for insects and for some smaller plans. the diversity today in cities seems to be higher than in intensively managed agriculture areas. today, agricultural land is so intensively managed and every last bit of production is squeezed out of every square meter of surface area that there's no space for nature anymore in the countryside in, at the same time, cities get more, they get greener. people pay more attention to nature and to and to urban nature. so it's actually becoming a very rich environment with, with a higher by diversity than outside of the c o n. we are rapidly

losing bio diversity, both within and outside and it is for insect the declines are particularly severe. ah, in this way sounds me a zurich, scientific, fully an ultimate has set up his light trust. ever since humans began to light up the night, millions of nocturnal insects have been dying off every year. and it's all for a species like this, being attracted by light is problematic, and because then it's confused. the few short days it has is a month to lags, some come light pollution is one of the major trends demands. scientists are even going, is found to describe it as an insect apocalypse. thank you. yes, i think for the clients we are seeing now are already quite worried of secret studies show a 60 to 80 percent decline and biomass hiv i sometimes even

a nature reserves becoming that these are incredibly large numbers, slavish or sit solid in my childhood, i used to observe much like these, somebody called and i would set up this trap next to my parents house and attract months actually in quite large numbers them. but today i would probably not find many of them. oh barton. i, you know, she stopped the hit solemn daughter with a choice. what is an estimate he lives in them but might in fact be capable of adapting to life in the perpetual night of our cities. florian ultimate wanted to find out his test, subject the spindle, ermine mouth whose caterpillars develop on the european spindle tree. yeah, that's what i actually, it was a coincidence. while i was working on my ph. d thesis. every day i walked through a park that had these european spindle bushes. and i noticed that with these caterpillars, these moths, which must have lived there for years out in a city park with permanent light pollution intended for smoked some east. i thought

i could just collect them, raise them i, and test how much the adult mots are attracted by light videos locked out and form leached. with his experiments in 2006 altamont pioneered research into urban evolution, he released the moths in a darkened room. the next morning he counted how many had flown into the light tramp? it gave his yvonne, the results showed a difference about 20 percent fewer urban lots had flown into the tramp all throughout from state dish around wouldn't all he looked for sandy, but ashworth among i was very surprised and confident. it was widely known that mot retracted by lightning. some more than others went the sheet about him. these differences have always been observed between different species in the hall, seeing variations within a single species that we've never seen before or bought it. the experiment clearly demonstrated an hereditary adaptation to life in the city. direct proof of urban

evolution for dodge biologist meadow shield housing. the findings confirm a large picture in amsterdam, he and his group of citizen scientists debate whether we might soon observe even more and greater adaptations of animals and plans to the city. ready ready we see that even a processes are starting, which will eventually or eventually produce new theses that are specialized on living in the 50 ah, the nano shield housing. it's not is, but went, every organism that lives in the city will show this urban evolution, these rapid changes in their behavior, in their physio, ology and their appearances to optimize their life in an urban environment. but one element suburban landscapes, prompt wildlife to adapt. evolutionary biologist,

jason mon, she south is an expert on animals found in the parks of new york. for years, he has been studying how rodents adapt to the city. along with human immigrants from europe, rats also voyage to the new world. today, rome, the city and subway tunnels most native wrote in species however, don't dare try to unlock crossing town. this distinction sparked the scientists interest. ah, i used to be a tropical biologist, but then i moved to new york city for my birth academic job after graduate school. and i decided i wanted to do some local work. that would be interesting to people of new york city and to my, myself. and i found out that there were these small mammal living and potentially island before the video, but that's interesting. nobody's really ever looked at the are they become exactly different from my outside, the city or the happening? that's how it all started. central park opened in 1873. it's still host animal

species that lived here long before the city was built. right now we're in the middle of central park. we're going to be traveling to the north end of the park where there's a very nice for, it's called the northwood and there will be setting out traps hopefully to capture way put in my one of the things that inspired me when i 1st started this work is if you look at new york city subway map, you see the subway lines. then there are these large green shapes, rectangles and overalls, and so forth. that are the, the parklands. and they put those on the map so you know where they are. but you also see that they are almost like a chain of islands that are scattered in the sea of concrete and roads and buildings, and 8 and a half 1000000 people. so in a sense, if it's a species like a mouse that can't leave the 4th cross neighborhoods and buildings and roads and make it to the other patch. it is essentially the same biologically as if they were

on an island in terms of them not being able to move and spread their genes with the other patches. and these urban patches, once they become sufficiently isolated, operate like a mini galapagos and may be driving the evolution of many species that are, you know, stuck there. now, the evolutionary biologists investigating whether the white footed mice actually develop indistinct ways in each of the various pounds would be a really nice spot for the wife of my. they like to move next to log, so they're not completely out in the open. they might actually even be living inside this log where it's rotting or in holes underneath the log. so this is pretty much the ideal spot. this forest is encircled by the big apple. half the mice already adapted to this unique environment. what traits do they need to survive here?

no shortage of good trapping spots. later i'll be going to one of our more suburban almost rural sites with the larger, more intact forests, less urban ization. and i'll be setting out, you know, an equal number of traps. so the hope we catch mice there as well. jason mankey south will search within the animals genetic codes for the marcus of life in the big city. oh, i think what's been most interesting to me is thinking about how the things that we are all doing in our daily lives, where we put our garbage, what we're choosing to eat and what we generate as ways where we choose to live. how we choose to go to work or how to restaurant or something. all of these things we are doing are now influencing other species in a way that we're just starting to understand it. but it's not only

animals that adapt to human intervention in the natural world, plans to the same in southern france, the yellow flowers crap. his sanctum is being studied by biologist pierre only v. a ship to dip you. so does the news crept this santa is a very common species in the mediterranean regions, a kind of mediterranean dandelion from the same family from you. and it's essential advantage as a model is that it produces 2 types of seeds would read the large ones and small ones, indigo city. but the small wild flower produces both lighter seats with parachutes, allowing them to glide and heavy. a seeds that simply fall to the ground measurement of us. ooh, i'm interested in the process of adaptation to an urban environment. and in particular, what happens when a species 1st arrives in the city? so it is recently colonized certain areas of montpelier. in my comparison between rural and urban populations, i focus on the traits related to seeds,

lee k. yet again, the idea of studying the adaptation of the plant to the city came to ship to almost by chance. when he came back from abroad, he noticed the inconspicuous flowers growing in the city, aid of japan, moiety nija, i left montreal in the middle of a blizzard dog. i took the plain for paris even then i took the bus to downtown oak hill. yay! where it was sunny with a clear blue sky is all of young or so. and then i noticed there were crap as sunk to flowers everywhere. and those tiny urban patches. and suddenly it struck me that there was something to figure out here, demila, but i didn't yet know exactly what miss lucy, antique. because actually the crappy sank to thrives in rural areas, and not in the asphalt deserts of the city. let me not minyaun over the predominant component in cities, especially in european cities, is concrete. concrete, exerts a powerful fragmenting force on the habitats of plants. supposing they have to survive in many by a tow priscilla feudal the put is

a beat up. sometimes the cities constraints on a plans habitat can be extreme. how will evolution respond? else schema domestic. i'm looking at how urban fragmentation will modify the dispersal traits of the species. i expect plants that produce more of the larger sieves will be more successful at reproduction in urban areas than they would be in the open country. oh, the heaviest seeds are less likely to be swept on to the asphalt. and indeed, the biologists discovered that far more plants in the city produced the heavier seeds and thus better able to survive a difference of 15 percent. but what stands out most is the speed of his adaptation . infected regime, abolition we've seen has taken about 15 years. so this is extremely brief. it was the 1st demonstration of such a rapid evolution of sea traits for plants. and this is due to the highly

fragmented composition of the urban environment to lol. gilba it, did you talk about the exciting genetic changes occurring at such a rate of long been considered unlikely even impossible by science or i think i would have been amazed by the fastness by which these changes take place. he was, it was sort of underestimating the power of natural selection himself. he said that you could never see any of these changes in progress. you cannot actually observed that. you can only deduce them from the fossils from the patterns that you see in nature. you said that the venetian is too slow to see it happening in real time and effect that now today, especially in cities, we see these changes taking place under our eyes in the streets where we live right around us. i think darwin would have been thrilled. but what if man made pollutants

substantially distort the bio chemistry of organisms. in the 1970s, the water new bedford harbor, the boston, was severely polluted with p. c. b's. the u. s. environmental protection agency. wanted to know just how bad the pollution really was. the original focus was on what must be wrong with all the fish that live in that harbor because of the toxic chemicals. instead, we came here looking, trying to understand what must be right about those fish that could survive here. mm. so they've become a natural experiment for us to study how animals can adapt to toxic human made pollutants. terrific, just what we're looking for. let's get him into a net. bring him back to the lap. diane, not, she had the environmental protection agency lab in narragansett,

rhode island in that reading facility. the scientists want to unravel the mechanism that allows this population of kili fish species to survive in the p. c. b polluted water of new bedford harbor. so let's see if they left any eggs flora, they planned to compare eggs from the new bedford hob, a fish with those of a fish population from a clean a site. oh, let's start a test and see what they do when we expose them to chemical. these killy fish species occurs all along the north american atlantic coast. the killy fish has been a favorite of biology literally for centuries at they are quite common. they are

non migratory, so they reflect their local environment. and each population is unique in that it is genetically different. it is adapted to its local environment. so it gives us opportunity for lots of studies. the researchers need to observe the development of the fish embryos in the egg in order to understand, at which stages the environmental talks and disrupt the animals, biochemistry or not. ah, so we'll look at the rate at which the embryo is developed and certain features that we know that p c. bees can disturb, like a proper development of the heart. evidence of proper development of the circulatory system and proper body side. mm. why, of these particular fish able to resist deadly in her mental talk sense?

what are the factors that allow individual species to adapt to the city? all parallel developments taking place in cities wild white. at the university of toronto, mississauga, evolutionary biologist, mark johnson, pursues these questions in a lot of ways, you can think of cities as one of the largest unplanned experiments of all time. the problem is, is there's very few organisms where you could study annotation to urban environments. on a global scale and white clover is one of those very few organisms where you can actually do that. so now this then becomes the model to understand whether organisms in general can adapt to the convergent environmental changes. so she was cities throughout the world. research is across the globe by walking together in this study, evolutionary biologist, stephan guyana,

and his team are collecting the white clover in berlin. in cities, the plant face is a different habitat, temperature's a higher than in the suburbs, and the countryside was manhattan. khan is the same. what you can expect is that as humans creates new environmental conditions mindful adapt and to be able to showed up on a global scale. that's a real scientific benefit. and that is why we're dedicating a free time to this project, runs and filed them as they proceed from the countryside to the city center of berlin, ghana and his team collect specimens at 35 locations. this gives them a sufficiently broad range of data to compare with that of other global cit is they find a final samples at the foot of the television tower spot. that's it all done in all we have a 168 cities right now and over $250.00 collaborators all working on the same

project together. there's never been a collaborative project on evolutionary biology of this scale. and so this is the largest collaborative project in evolutionary biology ever. so is clover developing in the same way all over the world, into a kind of global citi. clover from the vast set of data. the research is hope to find an answer in the grounds of a research institute, north of new york geneticist, jason monkey south wants to catch white footed mice to compare that dna with that of those in the city. but it's not easy. ready ah, ah, so this is a trap that was opened, it didn't catch anything. obviously. that's a tone that it was a map day for me while i think

you're really surprised that almost every park was different from every other park . it's always to the point where you could take a mouse from one park, give it to our lab, and we could just look at a small segment of his genome and tell you where it's it came from. that's how much they had changed just randomly over time from being isolated. and that's when we started our current studies looking at, you know, over 20000 genes to see what genes and potentially what functions change when they adapt to living in, inside of new york city. ah, there's one 1st white for the math of the day. with a new study jason mankey south and his team have already caught more than $100.00 mice. and to analyze that genetic compositions, they tried to take their samples as gently as possible, so as not to have the animals. mm hm. we take

a jack sample in this case, we will be using this small tool. it's like a paper punched, but for tissue and i, we store that for genetic analysis and we want to be able to tie that tissue sample to a location because that's important for understanding how they vary when they're in a more urban or less urban population. so now they're pretty m a. well, this is a male. ah, this young male. i why don't we take the era punch and we'll start on the other one ah, isn't suitable for comprehensive genetic analysis. so the researchers take a tissue sample from the ear. ah, yeah, you got something. after collecting the samples and some measurements of the scientists release, the mice. genetic analysis can reveal the evolutionary

trajectories of the mice. there we go. they point to a variety of physical and behavioral changes spreading among the animals. each of them unique to the challenges of each city park environment. so we're starting to fill in our gradient really nicely. ok, so here are the mice we have today from the color center. and you can see it's riding between highly urbanized new york city. and then all these sites we have up here and one out here. so central park seems to be our most distinct population. me to date. it makes sense. yeah, yeah. most urban, probably the most isolated. so if you took a mouse from central park, some of its genes will be different from a mouse outside in the countryside, in a big park some way. so for this one particular the food supply in central park and much of it, human food waste might have triggered

a genetic response in the city near federal park. what we've learned so far is that one set of genes that are changing in the city have to do with metabolism. so these white food of mice are eating things and they have to digest them and assimilate the nutrients. and we know it's evolution because a heritable change in dna sequences. evolution central pock my seem to have genetically altered their metabolism to better digest fast food in res several like broader questions about what we are doing as a species, as we modify the earth habitat for our needs. how are we changing the future of other species? not only affecting them, but we're changing what they will become in the future. ah, never again said diane, naturally and her team are investigating how the different fish embryos exposed to the toxic p. c. bees have developed hi,

how's it going? really well. so this is the study that's comparing scores creek and new bedford harbor experts to pcb $126.00. so this one is the group that was treated with pcb and also from the clean site creek. and as you can see, that you have had a pretty dramatic effect on the development, which is what we expect with these very toxic chemicals. yeah, and in my experience, when i see this, this constellation of anomaly, it's absolutely lethal. there's no way that an animal would even hatch, nevermind, survive after hatching. if the heart is not functional and the blood is essentially not circulating around the body. so let's take a look at that biochemical end point to see if they are also responsive. ok at the biochemical level, using a special contrast agent. the scientists can trace enzyme activity in the on

hatched fash. so you can see that the, the substrate is flora thing in the bladder showing that this enzyme system is working and we're, we're getting the expected metabolites of water. that's a very dramatic demonstration of enzyme activity in a living organism. the active enzymes in the fish embryo reveal how the organism tries to break down the thompson, but perishes in the process. then the team observes how the offspring of the fish from new bedford harbor have developed. ok, so these are fish from new bedford harbor that were exposed to the same level of p c. b that we were just looking at. as you can see what this embryo doesn't seem to have any effect, the heart is still beating normally and healthy. and it's developed really well. now, looks like an embryo that's about ready to hatch. some of them actually already patch

these fish should be dead poisoned by one of the most lethal environmental toxins. but life, it seems, has found away. one thing we know about this class of chemicals is that in all vertebrates, clothing people the, it turns on a certain enzyme pathway. so normally responsive person, or in this case of fish, should have that enzyme system turned on. if they were exposed to p c b, the contrast enhanced image shows how the end times that normally respond to the toxin remain silent. so in this case, i see very little that's glowing brightly. it is a dramatic visual difference that suggests that that enzyme system is broken in the new bedford fish. the killing fish from new bedford harbor has changed their

metabolism. the poisoned can no longer hamden, but which genetic modifications lead to the fishes toxin resistance. that's why geneticist ma com of the woods whole oceanographic institute wants to find out. could this be a key to understanding how nature might resist human interference in that of our tree? he uses the crisper cash method. it's an incredibly powerful way to modify the genetics of an experimental fish like this to ask questions about the roles of certain genes . and in fact, the roles of even single amino acids in the protein can be investigated with this. chris per casmer to task fair assumptions about the resistant kelly fish market and his team experiment with that profession. i want to find out exactly what are the changes in those genes and to be able to actually 0 in on the specific molecular changes that are responsible for the resistance. and to be able to recreate that in

the laboratory, to actually prove that that's the mechanism of resistance. where inserting portions of dna taken from the resistant killing fish into embryos of that profession. pneumonia you good. which ones are the injecting a p exxon to. com and his colleague neil lulu are using the most up to date genetic engineering techniques. here we are interested to city a function of the g known as a p. so we are trying to delete this gene in this particular species and then played to steady. what's the function of the weather that will alter that a system to p c. b, in with these experiments time to venturing deep into the source code of creation. the scientists believe this research could yield the secret of life's ability to

adapt to the most extreme conditions. and this knowledge could also help other creatures to adapt and survive in a rapidly changing world. ah, i think we will understand the extent to which we can extrapolate our knowledge from the kill a fish system out beyond to other fish and even other vertebrates. so a broader understanding of the toxicology of pollutants and how that will impact the natural world. how we can understand what will be the most vulnerable species the max planck institute in potsdam, the research team processes the clover samples from berlin. they go to find cyanide clever plants that produce cyanide,

a better protected against predators. bots are less able to tolerate cold. it's warmer in city centers. so this clover might be more common that this isn't a glass, is a qualitative test by isn't, i mean we use it to indirectly detect a specific gene that generates the cyanide does come out your different office. know you look like they're both rural now and then you would have to do that. yeah . they're both still role dyna and his team send their results and other clover specimens to mark johnson in his toronto lam. hey, how's it going? good. the the how did that extractions of yesterday? yeah, so remind me this is berlin and buenos ari's. the team prepares the clover for gene sequencing, but the cyanide values taken by the team and germany show whether the clover has adapted to an up and existence already. okay,

better did we get the data from berlin? yes, we did. okay, the screen here, it is so great. thank james. have you had a chance to look at the data from berlin? so we can understand how the environments changing from downtown berlin through the suburbs and into the rural areas. all right, so let's take a look at so berlin is one of the cities where we see why clover adapting to urban real gradients. yeah, nice. and so now we're at about 33 percent of cities where why clover adapts $32.00 . yeah. but yeah, fair enough about that. okay. so then next i think what we're gonna have to do is figure out what are the drivers, the environmental drivers of this adaptation. so that's really cool. in berlin plans from the city center, a more likely to produce cyanide, as is the case in a 3rd of the cities surveyed so far an indication of parallel evolution. mm. some of the preliminary insights are,

are fascinating. that really looks like, regardless of where you are in the world, whether you're in europe, north america, japan, china, australia, new zealand. we see the ability for this humble white clover to death, to these cities in the warmth of the city sinai producing clover stance. a better chance of survival. but to survive in the city in organisms must adapt to higher temperatures. what scientists, school, heat islands and cities, humans and their machinery creates a lot of heat. and we have a, a bumble of hot air enlarge fifties in a city of more than a 1000000 people can be 78 degrees south celsius halter in the center of the city

than outside of the city. with this men oh shoot. coulson believes now it also influences the evolution of the white lipped snail in their shelves coming many shades from brown to pale yellow. a single gene determines the color so they could basically carry their genes on their back. the, the shell color, the herman, the internal temperature of the hail to somebody in the difference in temperature inside can be 2 degrees under the same conditions. and that could be just the difference between life or death on a hot summer day. and you know, it was 40 degrees in amsterdam a few weeks ago. it could be that some of these yellow snails survived, but many of the brown ones died because they got to health, they overheated and they died. but well, the statistics support this hypothesis so the plan is now to,

to just add some data to the dataset. so let's go in order to collect and evaluate as many snails as possible throughout europe memo. she'll 1000 is helped by volunteers. you know, you don't have to go through the co op or go to study evolution or become a part paleontologist is happening everywhere all the time. it's a continuous, very normal biological process. the group only find the fuse niles but even empties. now shells can also provide data that photographed and added to the database with an app that anyone can install on their mobile phone. ah, if we're looking at the adaptations of urban animals and plans to the urban heat island, which of course is happening has been happening more rapidly than global climate change. we can probably predict what's going to happen globally in response to

climate change. oven is ation and climate change poses a threat to all plant and animal species including the monarch butterfly which gather in millions in the forests of mexico. every october that they've completed a 5000 kilometers journey to their winter quarters and increasingly perilous odyssey to the linsey miles studies. the butterflies in toronto, monarch butterflies are these really great insect. unfortunately, right now they're in decline. the in the united states, they've experienced 80 percent population decline in this industrial area of toronto, monarch butterflies take a rest stop before flying home. they also take the opportunity to mate and reproduce. really vague caterpillar, this is on the baby monarch. this one's probably

a day or 2 away from going into its chrysalis and then becoming a monarch butterfly. it's really cool. one other species have the ability to switch to other food sources. monarch butterflies remain dependent on a single plot. oh, i got one. let's check it out. we found a monarch ah, the butterflies laid eggs on the milkweed that caterpillar's feet exclusively on these plants. and in many cities, the land on which milkweed can grow is disappearing. o, unfortunately a lot of these cities are providing these barriers that just don't have the resources that they need. and so it would basically be if you're driving along the road and you don't have any fuel stations and you run out a gas, you're stuck. the knots, what's happening with these butterflies?

not all species can adapt. as our cities continue to expand, accommodating wild life might be crucial how we shape our cities in the future may prove decisive for the course of life on earth. biodiversity helps us with the food that we eat. it helps us with the air that we breathe. so if we continue along the path that we have many different populations including human populations, we'll start to crash. urban evolution can help us design green cities in a darwinian way. as humans become more urban, we have the potential to, you know, allow some species to live in the city and adapt to our cities. but then put less pressure on the other habitats which will allow, you know, the species that can't survive in the city to continue to thrive. mm. we're going

to see more and more of the realization that we are part of nature. and that's actually probably gone to help us survive. mm mm mm ah, to the point of strong opinions, clear positions, international perspectives, nearly 6 months into russia's attack on ukraine. a bloody war of attrition grinds on. could new developments behind the front lines to turn the tide can either side
