So I'm writing the code for my weather station upgrade, and I do a quick check on whether the cumulative counter for the tipping bucket rain gauge should be int(16bit) of long(32bit) . Looking at Melbourne's avg rain fall, it looks like int will last 33 years.

#IllegalKilling was the main cause of #mortality (33.8%), and mortality rates were similar in protected and hunted populations (8.6% and 7.0% per year, respectively). Due to the low natural mortality rates in protected and hunted populations, #anthropogenic causes of mortality are likely close to additive, such that maintaining or increasing refuge #habitat with little human #disturbance is critical to lynx #conservation.
