We just caught a stingray ~200km from the ocean in the Ngounie river, Gabon. Implications for dam construction? @Nature_Africa

How is speaking French valuable as an Ictheologist and NatGeo Research Scientist in Gabon, Africa? Just ask our G4 French students following their live Zoom with Joe Cutler @GWAcademyChi africaslastwildriver.com pic.twitter.com/F7s4ux8zC5

This one put up a good fight! These Chrysichthys catfishes are a preferred food fish here in Gabon, but I was happy to release this monster. #ogoouemegatransect #catchandrelease #trustedtough @coastportland

We’ve already paddled over 400km on the Ogooue Megatransect! This was at the confluence of the Ivindo and the Ogooue! @insidenatgeo

We’ve spent a week on the river. Lots of rowing through still water but a few good rapids to test out our equipment and bravery!

Cast netting the Ogooue on the #ogoouemegatransect Thus far we have sampled 4 proposed dam sites on the Ogooué and we are collecting critical baseline data to inform conservation in the region. @insidenatgeo

The Ogooue has been good to me so far! #ogoouemegatransect @insidenatgeo 📸 megansixt @ Lastoursville instagram.com/p/CEbqsupJpf6/…

Gabon is one of the last strongholds for forest elephants. #WorldElephantDay

We’re finally back in Gabon for the #ogoouemegatransect ! On our first beach walk, we tagged along with some fishermen pulling beach seines. They caught lots of fish, including this Lookdown and a baby Hammerhead… instagram.com/p/CDcHT5-pO8q/…

@girlyratfish @NoahwithFish @mtanichthys Pretty sure it’s a Rosy, not a Rosethorn... but they are similar!

@GinaZwicky @friel @BrianSidlauskas @halooie1 @jasongallant I’ll be there in April and am familiar with the area

@friel @Cutlers_Catch @BrianSidlauskas @halooie1 @jasongallant That’s awesome!! I’m hoping to be in Lastourville and would love to connect with anyone in the area!

For anyone wondering, the scicomm grant I’m hoping to receive would let me film a field biology skills course in Gabon in virtual reality (360-degree video) and post it for public access. Any boosting of my content gets me closer. Thanks for tolerating my constant posting!

A new study from @osu_fw @OSUAgSci @ucsc researchers finds that proposed hydropower dams in Gabon pose a substantial threat to the African nation’s most culturally and economically important fishes. beav.es/44Y

The 40 proposed dams will impact at least 350 fish species, blocking access to much of their freshwater habitat, shows new study by alumnus Joseph Cutler (@Cutlers_Catch) in @ESAEcosphere sci.ucsc.edu/2OzqloO

Published today! Checklist.pensoft.net/article/36362/ Results from our survey of the Chutes de Mboungou Badouma et de Doume Ramsar site in Gabon. High resolution photos of 97 freshwater fish species included! #Ramsar #Gabon @Parcs_Gabon

I’m buried somewhere in this photo! Amazing week #natgeofest
