Conservation Science and Practice

🌍 This #EarthDay, Conservation Science and Practice is leaving X and joining BlueSky, where we’ll continue sharing applied conservation science. Follow us: @conservationsp.bsky.social Stay connected on Facebook & Instagram! #GoodbyeX #BlueSky

📣Starting tomorrow, we're planting new roots and looking to the sky! ⛅️ ✨Stay tuned as #ConservationBiology and #ConservationScienceandPractice prepare for a new chapter in science communication.🐦 #Conservation #Science #Progress #LookingUp @ConBiology #byebyebirdie

⏳ The clock is ticking! The time to act for biodiversity is now. 🌍 Together, we can halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030. Watch the video and join the movement for #PeaceWithNature! 🌿 #KMGBF

🐣 Not your average Easter chick... Black-footed Albatross chicks are being moved to higher ground as rising seas threaten their native islands. A mix of decoys + calls helps them feel at home—laying groundwork for future seabird colonies. 🌊🪶 🔗doi.org/10.1111/csp2.1…
