It is time to say Goodbye 🥺 Today is the last day of #Animove at #OTS #LaSelva in Costa Rica. It was two weeks of fun in the jungle with many motivated #animalmovement researchers learning different methods for analysing their data. Stay in touch!

A quick introduction to the herbarium -home to more than 10,000 plant specimens - by Orlando Vargas from the #OrganizationforTropicalStudies, was a welcome break from laptop work for the participants. Thank you ! 🌱🌿 @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social @animaltracking.bsky.social #CostaRica

Weekend break was fun, now back to work 👍 Whilst the first week was teaching heavy, the second week is focusing on the learned new methods using data sets that everyone has brought along to work with.

Another day of #AnimoveCR 😀 Analysing animal movement with continuous-time models by @ecoisilva.bsky.social and Chris Fleming, ending with a fantastic plenary talk by @kamransafi.bsky.social on Kruger National Park research.

#AnimoveCR has started 🐒🦥🦇🐸🦜🦂🕷️ with a Natural History Walk. It was fantastic!

Excited to be in Costa Rica for the #AnimoveCR course in Movemenent Ecology that starts soon! Ready to meet everyone!🐸🐍🐢🦥🦜🦇🪸 Meanwhile visiting volcanos 🌋 @animove-course.bsky.social @animaltracking.bsky.social

Countdown for #AnimoveCR at La Selva Estación Biológica, Organization of Tropical Studies 👍 We will see you tomorrow! @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social @animove-course.bsky.social @animaltracking.bsky.social @livingingroups.bsky.social

Opportunistic Gulls Infected by Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Show Contrasting Movement Behaviour | doi.org/10.1002/ece3... | Ecology and Evolution | #ornithology

Have you ever wondered if #AMR affects the movement behaviour of the host?🧪🧫 As a first approach, we show how #gulls carrying antibiotic-resistant E. coli show different movement patterns in travelled distances and covered areas! 👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

No. What happens in Doñana DOES NOT STAY in Doñana. After more than two years of work, we’ve published an article demonstrating that the poor condition of Doñana negatively affects waterbirds across the ENTIRE continent! Thread below! 🧵 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Black-headed gulls feed at waste-water treatment plants, hotspots for antibiotic-resistance. Our paper shows how different individuals from the same colony have favoured WWTPs, then spread #AMR into different anthropogenic habitats #Pairwise @ebdonana.bsky.social link.springer.com/10.1007/s113...
