And it’s a wrap! 🤝🇧🇷🌍 #CMSCOP15 in #Brazil comes to a close on a high note in Campo Grande with CMS Parties agreeing on new or upgraded protections for the 40 migratory species and populations - a major step forward for global wildlife conservation. 🐘🦅🐋 www.cms.int/news/40-migr...

Great article by @gloriadickie.bsky.social for @mongabay.com ahead of the upcoming #CMSCOP15 taking place in Campo Grande #Brazil next week!

Thank you @ingerandersen.bsky.social @unep.org for supporting #WorldMigratoryBirdDay and for helping to raise awareness of the importance of countries to work together to conserve migratory birds!

​In Bermuda, conservationists are using hacked GoPro cameras to monitor the critically endangered Bermuda petrel ​ www.theverge.com/tech/642950/...

In "Global assessment of marine plastic exposure risk for oceanic birds" @bethanyclark.bsky.social, @mariemrouyer.bsky.social, @katboothjones.bsky.social, et al. note that understanding where #seabirds encounter plastic is crucial. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I've been asked for the layperson's summary of this paper, so here it goes: Because distinct groups of #seabirds across large regions like the North Atlantic grow and shrink together, conservationists in different countries also need to work together.

In "Consequences of cross-season demographic correlations for population viability," the authors establish positive correlations between population growth rates for three distinct groups of Atlantic puffins. t.co/vFyPXFI3yD
