So excited to finally REALLY begin my Shark research journey. Everything up till now has been the preliminaries. It begins in earnest this January. Yay!!! 💝🦈💝

@OCEARCH 🦈💝🦈😍🦈💝🦈

As apex predators, sharks play a vital role in maintaining balance in the ocean. They prevent 1 species from monopolizing in a region, which allows the overall diversity to thrive. Together we can gather the knowledge needed to protect our world’s sharks. ocearch.org/holiday/

Well written piece by several colleagues about the criminalization of poverty and houselessness in Prince George. These are human rights issues. Thanks folks. princegeorgecitizen.com/opinion/opinio…

Seven thousand nine hundred and twelve. 7912 It started as #215ChildrenAndCounting and we’re still counting. We’re still here, the Children’s Story will no longer be hidden.

@ktabag @ElasmoFan5 @OpenAcademics True story. I’ll likely be the same (or damn close). I dream of having my own teaching lab.

This should be fantastic!

@Chibi_Tom_ I feel like he needs a very large name, and maybe even a title or two. Francisco freshwater the third, duke of fisherdom?

I’ve also built and used a respiration chamber with bats if that helps. LOL

Q. Wanna help build the world's largest swim-tunnel respirometer for pelagic sharks? A: YES!! Then check out 2 job vacancies: Scientific Officer (Engineer): mba.ac.uk/news/vacancies… Technician (Engineer): mba.ac.uk/news/vacancies… @ERC_Research @ERCGrantees @thembauk @OceanEarthUoS

Keep your pet cats indoors. It keeps them, and our local wildlife, safe.

Some of my favourite wee frens on the whole planet. 💖💖💖

Same, fren, same.

It should concern everyone our elected leaders couldn’t predict that telling people it was ok to remove masks & resume normal activity would negatively impact vaccination rates.

OMG! 🤪 That’s absolutely fucking brilliant! I love it.

Yay bats! This is Harley, a silver haired bat I worked with in 2018. She was a great sport and such a spitfire.

SK; ass backwards since who the hell knows when. Gah!

@esplanerd Exciting!

Whoa what’s this? #Disneyland

Grateful for our time in the Boreal last week. I find it immensely healing to commune with our other-than-human kin, and the Boreal is so intensely life-giving and rich.

I talk a lot about our fire, what’s going on, and how I’m coping on FB… but wonder if folx here would be interested too. For the longest while my FB posts automatically posted here too, but they don’t now (no idea why). Thoughts?
