fyi be aware of “sami” running the accounts sami--onley, alkhleliy-family, hard-export, there are probably other accounts, claiming their fundraiser is verified on the gazavetters list #21. they were already marked as ‘removed’ on the list for awhile. “sami” (obviously not their real name) is sharing an edited/fake version of the spreadsheet where the campaign is marked as approved, however recently that name and campaign has been flagged as a scam “after confirming (Forgery and identity impersonation) misuse of verification and the threatening messages to others”, as posted on the gazavetters spreadsheet. if you donated request your refund. absolutely despicable to take advantage of a genocide like this… all that money, over €32k, donated to that scammer could’ve been sent to actual palestinians in gaza in dire need, like the family they’ve been impersonating or a grassroots initiative on the ground. also it appears 90-ghost reblogged their fundraiser obviously unintentionally and without knowledge that it’s a scam and now “sami” is using that as proof of validity. please be aware and don’t boost the scammer’s posts. this is the official gazavetters spreadsheet as posted on their account.

THEY FOUND THE WHITE WITCH CATERPILLAR! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!

For context: the white witch is one of the contenders for the largest moth in the world (biggest *wingspan*--loses to the atlas in terms of wing surface area, and loses to the regal for weight). It has a huge range, and the adult is fairly common.

But no one had ever seen a caterpillar. At all. There were only guesses as to what it might look like and what it ate. until this year. These are some of the first images ever taken of it!!
