Assuming a low cat density of 1 cat/km2, the total cat population in Teide National Park (Canary Islands) kills 257,739 vertebrates. Native species are particularly vulnerable to predation, with 166,249 reptiles & 5588 birds killed annually. link.springer.com/article/10.100… 🐈🐈‍⬛🦎🐦🐇🐀

🚨Preprint alert🚨 Are you interested in islands, conservation, animal behaviour and species interactions? If the answer is yes, take a look at our latest work. If not, take a look anyway, we have some cool pictures, figures and a creepy stuffed cat. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Glowing review in @PnasNews shorturl.at/Eump4! Big shoutout to Jonathan Goldenberg and Michaël Nicolaï for prompting this collective "ACKHYUALLY..." by wrangling a herd of colour nerds into a coherent discussion on tetrapod fluorescence! Read on for a TLDR summary 1/13

My first chapter is out! This was an enormously challenging project but I learned a lot and am very excited to share with you the hidden world of ultraviolet coloration in snakes. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Las ratas, invasoras en las islas Canarias, se alimentan de lagartos gigantes de Tenerife, una especie en peligro de extinción. Es la conclusión del artículo 'Invasive black rats menacing endangered lizards' (publicado en Biodiversity and Conservation) doi.org/10.1007/s10531…

Hace unos días la IUCN cambiaba el estado global de Podarcis pityusensis a “Endangered” (en peligro de extinción). Una especie endémica de Ibiza y Formentera (e islotes) que avanza rápidamente hacia su extinción… 🧵⬇️

Excited to share our latest paper on lizard contests and agonistic signals! Read on for a daydream on how being a lizard could be like, disguised as a discussion on the relative impact of static colour patches and behavioral displays in animal contests 🧵 academic.oup.com/beheco/article…

New paper alert! 💥 UAntwerp Funmorph's Ioanna Gavriilidi and Lisa Van Linden explore the relationship between #inbreeding and animal #cognition, and highlight the current research gap on the effect of inbreeding on cognition in wild populations 🧬🧠

La realidad de gran parte del litoral de Tenerife es esta. En la tercera imagen cada punto verde representa un emisario ILEGAL.

Empezamos la cuarta temporada por todo lo alto, con un invitado que nos hace muchísima ilusión. Esta semana palicaremos con Manuel Nogales, doctor en ecología y uno de los investigadores actuales más importantes de Canarias. ¿Te lo vas a perder? 🌱🐦‍⬛
