A nice way to end 2021! New paper out on research I helped with during my undergrad at @IBAHCM Lots of people involved in this one but happy to have been able to contribute a tiny bit Congrats to everyone involved Renoir J.

Very cool phd opportunity with a great group!

🦁 Curiosity caught the cat! This young male lion spotted something out of the ordinary when he came face-to-face with our camera trap in Kasungu National Park. There’s been no resident lion population there over the last ten years but we're now seeing an increase of lion reports

It's so cold in Edinburgh one of the local otters was spotted running across a frozen Duddingston Loch! Scottish Wildlife Trust Holyrood Ranger Gordon #wildlife #winter

We’re delighted to have been granted a licence by Former NatureScot account to move a family of beavers to our RSPB Loch Lomond nature reserve in Loch Lomond & The Trossachs, following extensive local community engagement. Read more here: rspb.org.uk/about-the-rspb… 📸 Wild Intrigue

And here’s an excellent example! The Matriarch had already crossed the river and sent an seismic message via infrasound of her low rumbles, transmitted through the earth! The freezing of the elephants movement, means they’re listening with their feet

Halfway through my fieldwork season with the Dwarf Mongoose Research Project! So far filled with so much learning, growth, inspiring colleagues & breath-taking wildlife at every turn. So grateful !! Thanks to all the support here & back in Bristol. Bring on part two 🫶🏻

🎉 WILDCATS HAVE BEEN RELEASED 🎉 We have begun releasing this critically endangered species into the Cairngorms National Park 🐾 This is an exciting moment for the partnership and a step forward for the restoration of the wildcat in Scotland 👉 savingwildcats.org.uk/wildcatrelease…

Working & moving across Britain in solitude this week/into next ⛺️ As a woman in my twenties, feel this should be more celebrated or simply normalised? No I don’t need help with my bag. I’m not lonely. Nothing is wrong. Quite the contrary. Thanks 🫶😍

Hot off the press 🔥🔥🔥 The desert-adapted lions re-discovered the rich resources of the ocean, but they also encountered fishermen at Torra Bay. Generose Kaveruire Korukuve looks at efforts to ensure that human-lion interactions were safe for both spp. conservationnamibia.com/blog/fishing-w…

Currently sat on a delayed 8hr train from the Scottish highlands to Bristol. Flying would have been a lot cheaper and quicker - but with the environmental cost…. Well here I am, sat on a train. It makes me so angry that we all try are hardest to make small differences every day.
