Out today, a companion article for my autoOcc R package: Estimating species occupancy across multiple sampling seasons with autologistic occupancy models via the autoOcc R package. #rstats 🧪 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

“Overall, these findings suggest that the value of natural history collections as global research infrastructure is eroding due to decreased collecting of specimen data across species, locations, and time.“ doi.org/10.1038/s414... Interesting analysis based on @gbif.org data.

Buenos días. Les comparto este paper donde mi amiga y colega Elizabeth García trabajó, junto a los investigadores de la Corporación Gio. doi.org/10.47603/man...

Our paper on New World Screwworm outbreaks in wildlife is out! This flesh-eating parasite isn’t just attacking livestock & humans—it’s now threatening the endangered mountain tapir, a keystone Andean species. #Screwworm #Wildlife #InfectiousDiseases #Tapirs #OneHealth wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/...

[FOUNDER'S BRIEF - @rhettayersbutler.bsky.social] Indigenous communities in Colombia's Amazon have protected voluntarily isolated tribes like the Yuri and Passé for years. Their vigilance -- blending ancestral wisdom and tech -- led to official recognition of two isolated groups in 2024.

Giant Anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla): This incredible mammal from Central & South America can eat 30,000 termites or ants in a day. Great photo taken by Marjorie Socha in Brazil. #anteater #ants #nature #wildlifephotography #wildlife #naturephotography #brazil

Rod Page @rdmpage.bsky.social asks which of BHL’s 63 million pages are the most important. Clearly the most important page on BHL is the first scientific description of the platypus 😉: doi.org/10.5962/p.30... #LivingData2025 #ILoveBHL #RetroPIDs

Rudolf Meier paraphrases a post from @rdmpage.bsky.social : as ~ 2/3 of the records in GBIF are birds, @gbif.org is primarily a Global Bird Information Facility. To correct this bias, we need to focus on the “ugly” biodiversity. 🪰 🪱 🪳 🦟 @mfnberlin.bsky.social #LivingData2025 x.com/rdmpage/stat...

If you’re at #LivingData2025, visit us at the Biodiversity Heritage Library booth. Ask us about the 63 million pages of #BiodiversityKnowledge we’ve made accessible & discoverable online, and how we’re transitioning to become an independent, global and sustainable consortium. #ILoveBHL

It went well!!!

Excited to have been part of the developer team! 🐾 Beyond providing access to the List of Mammals of Colombia, it helps map species records and validate coordinates against administrative boundaries. Looking forward to feedback & future updates! #science #MamíferosColombia #CienciaCriolla #SCMas
