This ⬇️⬇️ is why we need bigger, more joined up #mink control. It really does work, and native fauna including water voles can come back from the brink!

If you want #watervoles in a local landscape like this ⏬ #mink control is imperative! Whether it's to protect extant voles, or for a #reintroduction, get your mink rafts in order! Together we can eradicate mink, thereby protecting native WV long-term. minkmapp.uk

This female #mink will be working hard to feed her two kits, so woe betide any #watervoles in the vicinity.

Unfortunately this is a mink, rather than an otter. Demonstrates the need for constant vigilance even where #mink control is ongoing - there are #watervoles on some parts of the Thames in #Oxford , but for how much longer?

Episode 9 - Habitat Introducing our brand new educational video series, showcasing everything that you need to know about water voles and their predators. Our educational series will also be used during our local school engagement programme. #conservation #watervole #habitat

Meet Bonnie - the mink detection dog! Bonnie, Mirella (Bonnie's owner and SISI Project Officer) and volunteer Jon were joined by STV's Haley Bouma to chat about our American mink control work and Bonnie's special talents at sniffing out these invasive predators.

Beautiful footage, clearly demonstrating the size of the invasive American #mink alongside a grey squirrel and red fox

We're always looking for folk to help with mink control - pretty much anywhere north of Perth. We also need people in specific areas when mink are known to us. This time it's Methven nr Perth where we've had a number of mink sightings. Can you help? Former NatureScot account NatureScot_NE

We're now at that time of year when American mink are very active and juveniles are dispersing. Many locations in our trap network have had increased captures over the past few weeks and we're expecting more. This is a really important time to be monitoring and trapping.

Thanks Jodie Case We've had lots of people sign up to minkmapp.uk recently, but please keep adding your rafts! Working together is the only way we can efficiently control (eradicate...?) #mink using a strategic approach and it really is working!

This, I want. It's what you humans have isn't it? When other humans do wrong to you! Another way to look at it! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

This week our Advisory and Research teams held a very well attended #mink control training day, covering the research and development behind the #GWCT mink raft, best practice, humane dispatch and the #technology now available to assist control.

We now have 300 #mink rafts registered on the MinkMapp app, with 66 mink having been dispatched! minkmapp.uk

It's fantastic seeing these rafts going out!

Is anyone doing #minkcontrol around #Wareham or the Purbecks? Or do you know of anyone who might be? If so, please could you ping me a DM? Thanks!
