Okay #cameratrap people. What do we think this coyote is carrying around? This is one of our more rural sites outside of Chicago.

Ever felt like the global landcover maps were a bit lacking in urban areas? We used the OpenStreetMap database to make fine resolution LULC maps. The beauty is OSM is vector-based so you can go as fine as you want. Now published in @WileyEcolEvol shorturl.at/KDbRu

We've been placing 'ratcams' in alleys throughout #Chicago to get a look at rat abundance throughout the city, but rats are not the only species we see. Check out this opossum investigating our camera!

What kind of trees do bats like in urban green spaces? That’s what we aim to find out! Some fun field work today at Humboldt Park. @LPZ_UWI

This paper is VERY important. We sampled raccoons, skunks, and opossum for rodenticide throughout #Chicago and detected it IN EVERY SINGLE ONE, even opossum joeys weaning on their mother! Check out this thread for more details.

🧵 We are excited to share our new pub with @STOTEN_journal titled: "Widespread exposure to anticoagulant rodenticides among common urban mesopredators in #Chicago.“ This pub is OA for the next 50 days using sciencedirect.com/science/articl… (1/8)

We are very excited to have Dr. Tiziana Gelmi Candusso (@UrbanZoochory) to join our team! We’ve been collaborating for years via @uwi_network and are looking forward to do some really great human-wildlife conflict work across multiple cities with her!

I defended my thesis on Friday! It was really amazing to get to share this moment with so many special people who have supported me along the way. A special thank you to Dr. Stankowich, everyone in the @CSULBMammalLab, and the @uwi_network for making this work possible.

🐣🐣🐣🥚 The day we have waited for, worked for has come! At this moment, 3 chicks have hatched and the parent plovers are still incubating the fourth egg. Our work continues as we continue to support Imani and Sea Rocket and their chicks. Thank you, as always, for your support.
