Swine-craft has got to be the best pig-gaming pun we have heard so far! Keep them coming ha ha mol.im/a/9245799 via @MailOnline

Meet PM17, the oldest of the pine marten in @Ring_Of_Gullion. This bad ass continues to prove the doubters wrong by surviving and holding down a huge territory across the wider landscape without any canines.

@karategirl_012 @CDCgov Yeah, sure. You can tell that to the 978,000 people who have lost their live to this.

@CDCgov Every other virus or illness has gone by deaths why is covid going by cases? They’re using the number of cases to shut everything down. Shouldn’t we b going by the number of deaths? There’s a 99.95% chance of surviving covid. That’s a 0.05% death rate so why all of this?

#COVID19 cases have increased in recent weeks. 22 states and territories reported that cases are trending upward. Take steps to slow the spread. Wear a mask, stay 6 feet from others & wash your hands. Learn more. bit.ly/33bNiop

@NeilReid81 The two coming to mind are 'My Little Pony' and 'Watership Down', although I think the Watership Down re-boot was early 2000's...

I am loving the fact I can attend #VCUFAW2020 from all the way across the sea (just as much as I love the fact I can attend from bed!)

Cows at pasture are more comfortable than those keep indoors! More 'lying down' and 'less getting up' ... sign me up! Great talk by Andrew Crump (From QUB) #VCUFAW2020 @QUB_ABC

@CroneyGroup @ShanisBarnard Mia looks in need of a coffee break ha ha

It is hard not to #BringYourDogToWork when you are stuck working from home. Therefore, to celebrate #BringYourDogToWorkDay we have decided to let the #CroneyDogs run the lab for the day! #Furworkers #dogsoftwitter

Passed my viva today online, minor corrections. Really enjoyed it. Thank you to my examiners Colin Lawton and Keith Farnsworth. Two big thumbs up for the martens, squirrels and everyone who has supported our work over the years. Special shout out to the main man @DavidGTosh

For some reason this made me laugh way more than it should have...

Fantastic news!! It has been announced that the Government’s new approach to the fight against bovine tuberculosis is a transition from culling to vaccinating badgers. Read more >> wildlifetrusts.org/news/governmen…

Given its #Wildlifeday what better way to celebrate than appreciating some of the amazing #wildlife we have here in #Indiana!

Happy #NationalPigDay!🐷 Did you know that #pigs are as smart as or smarter than most dogs? They deserve kindness and compassion, too!💗

High levels of early life play experience may influence assessment making during later life contests - but not in the way you might think! nature.com/articles/s4159…

The European pine marten is helping the recovery of the red squirrel population in parts of Ireland & Scotland - by eating more of their grey cousins. With a paper published in @RSocPublishing, @JoshuapTwining explores why in @ConversationUK. #biodiversity theconversation.com/grey-squirrels…

Is play fighting experience actually useful in a real fight? It is if you are a female pig! #fig2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
