So either Labour need to ask candidates to step aside for the Greens to take on Reform.... Or actually bring in a fair democratic process where everyone's votes count equally. It's time for Proportional Representation.

During my BSc at NTU, I participated in these surveys, collecting hedgehog capture history data in 2010 (and maybe 2009 or 2011, who knows it's that long ago! 🧓🏼). So it's pretty cool to go from collecting these data to assisting with the analyses all these years later! 😊

Our results showed that density declined over time & was spatially structured. As badger presence changed during the study, with a new badger sett appearing halfway through the study, we observed a density-weighted shift away from this badger sett, providing evidence for the landscape of fear.

Drought conditions continue in NW Province SA, and as such rodent densities very low. This years annual trapping did however catch a few of my favourite pouched mice, Saccostomus campestris
