🌍🐺 Wolves Across Borders 2025 — EWCP joined the Himalayan Wolves Project and WildCRU colleagues in Lunteren to represent wolves from Africa, Europe & Asia. A powerful global gathering sharing field insights & coexistence strategies. Thanks to all who came to listen & share!

A message of hope from EWCP founder: “The threats are many but canids are versatile, they will find way”—Prof Claudio Sillero #WAB2025 #WolvesBorders

EWCP Science Director, Dr. Jorgelina Marino, on the potential impact of climatic variables on Ethiopian wolf breeding phenology. #WAB2025 #WolvesBorders

🔊 SOUND ON! It’s amazing! 🤩 Listen to the winners of the wolf howling contest at #WolvesBorders #WAB2025 The competition was fierce!!! So many great contestants 🐺🎶

Our EWCP delegates, Prof Claudio Sillero, Dr Jorgelina Marino and Dr Sandra Lai, just arrived in Lunteren, Netherlands, for the International Conference Wolves Across Borders 2025! 🧵1/ #WAB2025 #WildCRU #OxfordBiology #OxfordUniversity #WolvesBorders #conservation #research

Ethiopia is experiencing significant land use changes, restricting habitat for wide-ranging, large carnivores. Camera trap data estimates large carnivore populations in Omo Valley and the threats faced, shaping future conservation management practices. tinyurl.com/4baacabu

African wild dogs are critically endangered and understudied. In Tanzania’s Selous-Nyerere landscape, researchers used camera traps to identify 222 individuals, estimating 2.14 wild dogs/100 km², confirming it as one of Africa's wild dog strongholds. 👉 bit.ly/42NrOhM

New research investigates the Himalayan wolf, one of Eurasia’s oldest wolf lineages. Genomic data and skull shape analysis shows subtle traits, eg. shorter muzzle and wider cheekbones, that set this elusive wolf apart. Read more 👉 tinyurl.com/m3u9eprd

Dire wolves are not back. Pups created by gene editing grey wolves are not true dire wolves, say canid conservation experts. Recreating the Ice Age sounds exciting, but it won't save what's still wild. #Conservation #Biodiversity #GeneEditing #direwolf tinyurl.com/4yh4mak5

Great new paper from Alyona Kashkina from @ACBK_Kazakhstan and colleagues, on the (relatively positive) view that people across Kazakhstan have of wolves, and their suggestions towards coexistence besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.100… @PaN_BES

Excellent review on a topic I really love the famed ‘mesopredator release hypothesis’, actually better called ‘subordinate predator release hypothesis’
