2nd day at the XII Italian Congress of Theriology sponsored by @ATIt_mammiferi (Italian Association of Theriology) in Cogne (AO, Italy) with my poster on jaguar social behaviour ✨🐆 #jaguarbehaviour #bigcatsbehaviour #XIICongressoItalianodiTeriologia

Great news from IUCN! Working in sea turtle conservation, I’ve seen the challenges they face, but this is proof our efforts matter. From protecting nests to reducing plastic, every action counts. There’s still work ahead, but today we celebrate hope. linkedin.com/posts/iucnssc_…

Today is the #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience! Let's celebrate this day remembering that gender equity is crucial in STEM because everyone, regardless of gender, has unique perspectives and talents to contribute! For Science and for a better and healthier World! 🌎🌍🌏

So it looks like I will come back to Costa Rica soon! I’m so excited to take part in The Leatherback Trust as a Field Biologist. Even if it’s an unpaid position, I hope it will open to me new opportunities to keep working on wildlife conservation 🍀

Researchers using trail cameras to study #jaguars in northwestern Costa Rica realized their results may be one-sided. While males used the trails, females seemed to avoid them. hubs.li/Q01_28-W0

This is an outstanding book. Might even take the crown from Schaller’s ‘The Serengeti Lion’ after 50+ years as the most complete and authoritative title on lions.

Yesterday during an interview I was asked, “What do you want to do when you grow up?” I replied I want to work in Conservation, but I'm facing difficulties in finding a job in a field in which young researchers don't deserve to be paid. Do you think that’s fair?

We are hiring three tenure-track faculty in biology: functional morphology (1) and cellular/molecular biology (2). Also positions in chemistry, physics,and enviornmental science. sites.google.com/view/scripps-p…

📢Periodic reminder that you don't need to touch orangutans to be an orangutans conservationist, because it does in fact, send out the wrong message, negatively impacting the 👏very👏 same👏 orangutans 👏you're apparently trying to conserve.

@kmanders7 @Nature @NatureComms @NatureGeosci Should I be rich to have the opportunity to find a job in conservation? When the efforts of young aspirant researchers will be paid back? I understand the experience in the CV, but work for free for the rest of our life is unfair. And now that I read your tweet, I feel worst

@kmanders7 @Nature @NatureComms @NatureGeosci Now I’m trying to find another field work but the requisites are always crazy: several years of experience, several papers published, extra qualification, but none are paid positions. So, what we have to do to start our career?

In the past 12 months, I have published in @Nature (led by my PhD student, @NatureComms and was interviewed for @NatureGeosci My dept has rated my #AnnualPerformance as “Below Average”. I’m at a loss.

In some beaches of Costa Rica (but also Mexico, Guyana, and Suriname) jaguars have been recorded preying on adult female sea turtles during nesting activity. These animals have a massively constructed skull that gives them the strongest bite force of all the large cats.

Brilliant footage! Being a ‘solitary’ cat doesn’t mean anti-social: familiar leopards interact with each other all the time. It’s just rare to observe/capture it- lovely!

¡Tenemos buenas noticias! Por primera vez, se documentó un tiburón tigre viajando entre Galápagos e Isla del Coco. Está especie se una a las seis registradas que se mueven dentro de la MigraVía Cocos-Galápagos. Conoce más en ow.ly/axby50FfoSy
