New paper out! 🚨 We show that vampire bats use amino acids from a recent blood meal to fuel RUNNING - a rare mode of locomotion in bats ideal for stalking prey. I’d worry less about your neck and more about your ankles! 🧛🏻‍♂️ @WelchLab_UTSC @RSocPublishing royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Please help spread the word. Do not release balloons. They kill innocent wildlife. Mass balloon releases should be illegal. coastalreview.org/2023/11/beaked…

A terrible event that we helped investigate. Rare deep-diving whale dies from ingestion of plastic balloon. Please do not release balloons! Encourage others to use biodegradable alternatives. Please spread far and wide. uncw.edu/news/2023/11/s…

The mighty fin whale 🐋 The second largest, and the fastest whale on the planet. I’ve had this shot in my head for 3 years, with the dolphins bow riding in front, so getting this on Wednesday was incredible. Even more so, it was filmed here in the Celtic Sea. @DJIGlobal

We are down in #Antarctica in the middle of winter, south of the Antarctic Circle, and it’s 8.6C (47.5F). This is not ok… There is no ice. We need to do better. #ClimateCrisis #GlobalWarming #B038 #ClimateEmergency #research @UNCWilmington @ExeterMarine

🧵4/n It’s only now that I’ve left that I can really begin to process my Antarctic experience. And only now that I’ve left can I let myself acknowledge the canary in the coal mine… This wonderful place is dying.

It's very concerning to hear about how bad the sea ice conditions are this year from a captain that has been coming down to #Antarctica for the last 30 years, Data supports what they and we are seeing. The impacts from #climatechange are already here. #weneedtodobetter
