Unironically love when people send me these kinds of videos or photos of fish and ask me what species there are. People really think too highly of me.

I know I tried to keep this marine related, and this is freshwater, but it is weird enough to be worth mentioning. #Indonesian crayfish that are common in the pet trade are being described as a new species phys.org/news/2025-01...

Oooh, just discovered Smithsonian Open Access -- unrestricted CC images that are clearly labeled by Family, genus & species! Also cute art www.si.edu/openaccess

Aprovechando que está arrancando bien esto, les presento el mejor video de divulgación que he hecho

BREAKING: The IUCN Species Survival Commission Shark Specialist Group has released a new report on the global conservation status of sharks and their relatives. portals.iucn.org/library/node...

🔥 New Publication! We systematically reviewed articles reporting hybrids involving keystone aquatic and semi-aquatic megafauna (aquatic mammals, reptiles and elasmobranchs). The results showed an increase in reports in recent years. Read the paper here: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

Today I saw another cibertroca, which means there are at least two (2) cybertrucks in Cancun, which is two (2) cybertrucks too much.

Enjoy some Bluesky positive vibes (sound on👍) from these juvenile Lake Sturgeon @garlab.bsky.social!

Pssst… Bluesky gets to know FIRST… We’re bringing you #GarWeek the week of December 16!!! More info coming soon!

Hello Bluesky people! I am a South Florida Based Underwater Photographer who likes to share all the weird and colorful wildlife found in our urban waterways! Here is a momma octopus tending to her eggs in a pile. #underwaterphotography

Me dedico al estudio de la biología y a la conservación de megafauna acuática y sus hábitats. Soy especialista en mamíferos acuáticos y semiacuáticos.

In July, we told you that Hakai Magazine will close at the end of December. Since sharing that devastating news, we’ve worked very hard to find a way to keep publishing the ocean and coastal journalism that you love. We’re happy to finally announce that our team has a new home!

The Onion should buy Elsevier next

Here's a juvenile whale shark--just a 17-foot-long baby--shaking off some pesky fishies. #MarineLife

So I'm gonna celebrate Christmas with my gf today and I'm giving her the gift I bought her that I have since November and have planned since September and you know what she did yesterday? She went ahead and ordered the exact thing I bought her :(

My girlfriend told me I dress like Adam Sandler and my confidence has never been so low... especially because it's true

The fact that I moved to the Caribbean because I hate the cold, we have an apparent temperature outside of 33° C (91° F) and I have to dress LIKE THIS in my office because the AC is so cold, is, frankly, homophobic.

The number of times that Atlantic hurricanes intensify from a Category 1 storm (or weaker) into a major hurricane (Category 3 or greater) within 36 hours has more than doubled in the modern era (2001-2020) relative to the historical era (1971-1990). New study in Nature Scientific Reports

Speaking of marine mammals in zoos and aquariums, they seem to be thriving (in the good ones). New paper dropped yesterday 🐋🦑🧪 phys.org/news/2023-10...

Now that my rant is over,does anybody know if there is a feed for marine mammalogy?

Hey guys, haven't been active here a lot because I've been busy with something very dangerous that's happening in Mexico, anti captivity lobbyists are pressuring the Senate to pass a resolution that would change the law to forbid marine mammal reproduction in captivity, this is bad for a few reasons

Great news! (just a little fact checking, infancy in bottlenose dolphins rarely reaches a decade, it usually lasts until the next calf is born, and it tends to last between 3 and 6 years, the reported maximum infancy was of 11 years and it was observed in Sarasota but it was an isolated case)

I'm back, just had a lil COVID for the third time

This fish looks like I just told them that they need to go to the hardware store to buy a left handed hammer and they're not sure if that's a real thing or if I'm pranking them

bioRxiv goes big on Bluesky: accounts for all subject categories now available (Please Reskeet) connect.biorxiv.org/news/2023/09...

Everytime my ex-roomate ate fried fish he would donate the head to me so that I could remove the otoliths, I used to have a small collection on my car which included the otoliths of some common snappers and grunts, then one day I got my car washed and they threw my otoliths away.

Second day on this app and I already forgot my password

I'm still on post-vacation depression because yesterday I played Saints Row 2 till 3 am and I'm once again dying at work, by my own hand

Today I came back to work after (a very needed) vacation but yesterday I didn't want my vacation to be over so I stayed up until 4 am so instead of going to eat today I decided to take a nap but ended up on my phone the whole time and didn't nap or eat. Now I'm dying for two reasons but both are me.
