This is the first known video of the Amazon weasel, a rare small carnivore. Filmed by a group of coffee producers in Bolivia, where the species hadn't been recorded before. An example of the importance of citizen science to #biodiversity knowledge. 👉 bit.ly/3LrWmfl

Our 2023 #BugsMatter survey results are out today, and the news is alarming. The data indicates a 78% fall in the abundance of flying insects in the UK since 2004. 🧵

Organisms respond to environmental conditions in complex ways. This gets even more complicated when the environment is itself composed of other organisms and when individuals actively modify the environment they themselves respond to. (1/2) @IUBiology @NCSE @nsf @IUCollege

I did this MSc course back in 2019/20 and couldn't recommend it enough! 🦔 Cornwall is a beautiful place to live, and the Penryn Campus is no exception - plus you'll be learning from ground breaking researchers... learn more about it in the Q&A next Weds 🦗

*New #evolution paper* Sparrow-weaver mothers lay larger eggs when they will have more help feeding chicks. Maternal reaction norms to help are *opposite* for egg size & nestling feeding rate. Cool. But why do this? 1 of 3. Fine work @p_capi. tinyurl.com/2djsp6zd #ExeterCEC

Culling-induced perturbation of social networks of wild geese reinforces rather than disrupts associations among survivors Shows importance of generalised social system-based theory to understand how different species respond to management intervention 🔗doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…
