New paper out in @JBiogeography doi.org/10.1111/jbi.14…! We compare some 15 years of GPS tracking and citizen science resighting data of Bewick's swans, to see which contains more information on population space use. GPS data substantially outperform resightings. Nonetheless...

Fossils show that Southern Bent-wing #bats have lived at #NaracoorteCaves for over 500,000 years. It is truly shameful that we've driven them to near-extinction in less than 200 years. Australia is in an extinction crisis🦇theconversation.com/one-of-austral… Bat photo by Steve Bourne.

Another new 🦇 paper! Our study on the critically endangered Southern Bent-wing Bat shows that the species is in continued decline, requiring urgent action to reduce extinction risk⚠️ Open-access: doi.org/10.1038/s41598… h/t @taaprowse Photo: Emmi van Harten 1/4

New 🦇 research! We used a novel approach to describe the full seasonal cycle of activity & movement/#migration events in the critically endangered Southern Bent-wing Bat (SBWB) for the first time. Open access: doi.org/10.1071/WR21088 @latrobe @AusBats h/t @taaprowse 1/4

🔥Heat wave in Antarctica, +38 °C (+68 °F) above normal. That's not an error, or a typo. The remote research station at Dome C recorded a temperature nearly 40 °C above normal for this time of year, beating the previous March record by a startling 20 °C.

Wonderful tracking data being shared by @roamingmoth after many long days and nights in the field!
