EVERYONE!!! LOOK AT HOW CUTE MY LITTLE GIRL IS!!!

This is so British 🩷

I recently rejected a manuscript (as editor) on animal ethics grounds. Just because a study has ethics approval it doesn’t mean it passes BES ethics standards. Glad the BES journals are taking this seriously and developing their animal ethics policies. Check it out if relevant to your research!

“Use AI to brainstorm but not to write.” “Use AI to help you outline but not to write.” These are commonly proposed as “ethical” ways for undergrad students to use AI, but I’m sorry, brainstorming & outlining are just as integral to writing as the actual construction of sentences.

This project (with Stacy Rosenbaum and Nick Grebe) began in the dark days of Covid, and is finally ready to share. We've built a living database of primate paternity data (52 species, 3000 paternities) and completed first wave of analyses of paternity distribution. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

When pets devour biodiversity. My new article on the European edition of @uk.theconversation.com about the impacts of pet-wildlife interactions and the opportunities for their legal regulation in the EU. theconversation.com/our-pets-are.... Related paper: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

this is an absolutely astonishing feat of independent journalism, top to bottom, and proves that the only way to truly fight billionaires is not being funded by them. just…read the whole thing.

Last day @sosbangor.bsky.social before our 23 day cruise on the RRS Discovery for the SeaSTORE project. We'll be studying the impact of bottom trawling on seabed carbon stocks. We'll study the chronic and immediate impacts.

I want to start including conservation success stories at the end of every lecture in my #mammalogy class. Anyone have recommendations for success stories for any group of mammals? Especially mammals that are perhaps less charismatic and therefore harder to find examples for. #highered #scicomm

This "conflicting accounts" narrative of the BBC's is a much bigger problem than they seem to think. The huge issue is not false balance - it's that they're NOT reporting the biggest story of today: the fact the US Government is lying about its own forces killing a US citizen.

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

Death toll in Afghanistan when NATO answered the US’s call: - 453 Britons - 158 Canadians - 89 French - 59 Germans - 53 Italians - 44 Danes - 17 Spaniards “Stayed a little back, off the front lines “! No one in the media will call him out over this lie or any of the others he spouts.

Well that’s me locked out. No pay for the foreseeable future, all because I refuse to reschedule lost teaching, for which I have already lost pay as part of the strike. Please donate to support @sheffielducu.bsky.social members like me at www.gofundme.com/f/heubvb-sup...

Morning, bsky! I come seeking knowledge! What's your favourite restaurant or pub in or around Caernarfon? I'd prefer dog friendly and with nearby parking if possible! Thanks in advance 😘

STOP. We have a major news story in our house. It's been building up for a few days and this afternoon came the denouement. It's the story of a banana.

Thank you bringing your knowledge, enthusiasm, and hope to this year's Winter Meeting at National Museum Cardiff. We hope to see you all next year!

Had such a wonderful time at @primatesocietygb.bsky.social Winter meeting, where I presented some of our research on galago responses to predation. It’s always such a welcoming and enthusiastic group, thanks to all the presenters and organisers!

I’ve written a piece on the curious lack of media and political interest in the issues faced by our national @britishlibrary.bsky.social. This is strange given we live in a world where ideas, knowledge and research are a long-term source of innovation and insight www.cityam.com/the-british-...
