Read about novel strategies and tools that could prove vital in our quest to reduce global plastic pollution in the new @DukePlastics #OpenAccess paper published in @FrontMarineSci ! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

It is with heavy hearts that we have to share the passing of co-founder of Save the Manatee Club, Jimmy Buffett. Jimmy co-founded our organization in 1981 with former US senator and FL governor Bob Graham and has supported manatees for over 40 years.

Excited to share our latest! Together with @HermabessiereL, @ChelseaRochman, & @dpnowacek we discovered #microplastics IN the blubber, melon, fat pad and lungs of twelve whale, dolphin and seal species. #whale #Dolphins #PlasticPollution sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

An endangered species sighting: Rice’s whales in the Gulf of Mexico! @NOAAFisheries scientists sighted this incredibly rare species during research aboard their survey vessel. The estimated population of this whale is fewer than 100. #NOAASoutheastScience bit.ly/477pmCR

@amykflower @svershbow So cute! Sad Mako and Hubble never got to meet :(

@svershbow For Hubble’s 11th birthday I made little goody bags with treats for all his friends at the dog park (and a couple with tennis balls for pups with dietary restrictions) and put little bows on them because he’s known for his bow ties! He had no idea but it was worth every penny!!

"Why are you having a party for your dog he doesn't even know it's his birthday?" says woman who spent $2,000 on her kid's 1st birthday party.

My job is pretty cool!

My colleague and friend Kelsey Potlock and her coauthors just published a new study looking at the impacts of floating wind turbines on small cetaceans! 🎉🐬A timely study as we continue to push towards building more renewable resources offshore. link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Happy #WorldTurtleDay! #DidYouKnow @NOAA helps track marine life with #Argos? By mapping the migration routes of tagged #loggerhead #SeaTurtles, we can see that they base their course on a specific chlorophyll and temperature gradient. Learn about Argos: noaa.gov/news-release/n…
