what will the post-release mortality / survivorship be of #seasnakes caught and release by prawn trawlers? great research goal Shannon Coppersmith ! let’s hope that survivorship is really high and we can keep eating those yummy prawns! #amsa2022

Great #AMSA22 talk by Shannon Coppersmith on wrestling wild sea snakes 🐍 to fill critical #marine conservation knowledge gaps. Exciting research Uni of Adelaide

Seasnake duo extraordinaries Shannon Coppersmith and Amelia Pointon taking us through how to track and then use eDNA to detect snakes st Minderoo Foundation Exmouth Research Lab science night! 🐍

This is a PA to say sea snakes are cute. Check out these guys holding tails to sleep 💤

My kind of talk! Thanks Shannon Coppersmith from Uni of Adelaide for introducing us to the wonderful world of sea snakes and to the ways of gathering ecological data on these mysterious critters. #ESAus23 #MarineEcology #WildOz

Now out in GBE: Some sea snakes have re-evolved the ability to see more colors buff.ly/44A5IgO #science #evolution #biology #genome #snakes

Stoked to announce the publication of my first sea snake vision paper! “Functional Duplication of the Short-Wavelength-Sensitive Opsin in Sea Snakes: Evidence for Reexpanded Color Sensitivity Following Ancestral Regression.” 🐍👁️🎨 Give it a read here! academic.oup.com/gbe/article/15…

Was so excited to present some preliminary results at BLS8 Tokyo last week! Thanks to all that came to hear about our sea snake tracking in Exmouth Gulf 🐍🐍

Really excited to share the first publication from my PhD in #MovementEcology, 'Wiggle and Glide: fine-scale telemetry reveals unique diving strategies in benthic-foraging sea snakes'! Read it here: rdcu.be/eCYzO
