🚨 Check out our new blog post!! @belette-runner.bsky.social and @fredericddb.bsky.social built a game to study predator-prey interactions. Find out more here 👇 buff.ly/5ERO5Oy

New paper in Methods Ecology and Evolution! Lead with @belette-runner.bsky.social and many motivated ecologists. Imagine being able to model predator–prey dynamics using the instinctive choices people make while playing games in a natural landscape 🦊 🐇 doi.org/10.1111/2041...

So excited to shared this project lead with @fredericddb.bsky.social and many enthusiastic ecologists. We played as predators and prey and with quite simple rules and were able to reproduce phenomenon observed in nature. doi.org/10.1111/2041... @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Excited to share our new paper in @esajournals.bsky.social Ecology! ❄️ Our 17-year study shows that even moderate winter events (rain-on-snow, melt-feeze) can negatively influence lemming winter reproduction and population growth. 🐹 Open-access available here: 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/ecy....

This is horrible. I don't even know what to say. Some of our most key polar data. "As a result, the level of services for affected products below will be reduced to Basic—meaning they will remain accessible but may not be actively maintained, updated, or fully supported." nsidc.org/data/user-re...

Fresh off the press! 📰 How do territorial predators behave when at risk of encountering neighbours? Jeanne @jclermont.bsky.social tracked Arctic foxes 🦊 on Bylot Island to study the effect of conspecific encounter risk on foraging behavior. with Marie-Pier Poulin & @dominiqueberteaux.bsky.social

Introducing {maposm}, an R package that extracts, modifies and merges sets of layers from OpenStreetMap for cartographic purposes. On github: https://github.com/riatelab/maposm The package is not on CRAN, but it is on r-universe: https://riatelab.r-universe.dev/maposm #rstats #rspatial #gischat

New: The Specialist Predator Hypothesis is discussed here and David provide evidence that it is not well supported to explain lemming cycles and, de facto, the temporal dynamics of the Arctic tundra food web. However, ermines do have a major impact on it. Find out in the MS how! Its open access.

Arctic hares may be migratory in the high Arctic. Uncertain what causes this possible migration but resource tracking seems plausible. 🧪🌍 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great ressources for anyone doing spatial data with with R 🚀 🌈 👉 rspatialdata.github.io thx @paulamoraga.bsky.social ✨ 🧪🌐

Impressive work!

Hello Bluesky! I'm a behavioral ecologist wrapping up my PhD at Laval University. I use movement data and field surveys to explore how predation shapes population dynamics and species coexistence. Most of my work is on arctic fox, shorebirds, geese and mountain goats. Happy to join the conversation!
