A nice little summary of my first published PhD chapter. Like the rest of Macca the skuies are kicking on in a post rabbit world! And they taught us some great insights about how to manage future eradications in ecosystems with native top-order predators.

New IMAS PhD study reveals how invasive species eradication on #MacquarieIsland in 2011 changed the island’s ecosystem in different ways. How did it effect the #BrownSkua, a top-order native predator? 👉tinyurl.com/sbpxhh7a @UTAS_ @mpred_lab @TSR_Hub @UQ_CBCS @TasmaniaParks

Did not expect the AFR to come out swinging... but it's a welcome addition. "Forrest displays a startling lack of coherence here. He is mining someone else’s land without a land-use agreement, and he doesn’t want to pay them 'cash for nothing'!" afr.com/rear-window/an…

A reminder that there are still people on Nauru who’ve been there for 10 years. Away from their families. It’s inconceivable that Australia could treat anyone in this way. This is Kaium who has asked for his photo to be shared. We must get everyone off Nauru immediately.

Real Y2K jibes right now, but don't feel twitter is going anywhere. It is owned by a person I don't align with, enough reason to divest. If there's 435mil active monthly users here, he bought your account for US$100. If we all bail we could make him broke! #mastodon

I do wonder if @MarkMcGowanMP considers how being locked up in isolation for this long would lead to "severe.. and I mean.. severe behavioural issues" or if he realises his policies are the cause of them... The level of community silence after that #4corners is deafening 😢

The other reality is that #RaiseTheAge will force Govts to actually invest in prevention. It’s simply too easy to send a kid to prison than do the heavy lifting of preventing it.

State governments know that detaining children as young as 10 is traumatising and makes them more likely re-offend, putting the community at greater risk. So why does Australia continue to incarcerate children knowing the harm it causes? Tonight's investigation on #4Corners.
