🐢 Sea turtles are making a comeback🌎 A study🧪 by Deakin University & NOAA shows rising nesting numbers thanks to conservation efforts. Protection & habitat restoration work, yet climate change & poaching remain threats phys.org/news/2025-01... #SeaTurtle #Conservation #Wildlife #Biodiversity

NEW PAPER: The @libererofellows.bsky.social team led by Dr. Schiller looked at what's working for species recovery in 🇨🇦. Species recovery wasn't affected by human or financial capacity provided but was possible when the primary cause of decline was alleviated. www.facetsjournal.com/doi/full/10....

Not to mention we often don't list species until far after their populations have declined and cultural values/practices can no longer be exercised see @claytontlamb.bsky.social et al www.cclmportal.ca/resource/bra...

We installed cameras to study wildlife movement before + after construction of Rock Creek underpass on Alberta's Hwy 3. Stay tuned for more updates on the Reconnecting the Rockies - Alberta collaborative project! @adamtford.bsky.social @claytontlamb.bsky.social @ncccnc.bsky.social @y2y.bsky.social

DNA metabarcoding data collection underway. We’re going to figure out what these deer and sheep are eating all winter!

NEW PAPER: We followed 76 grizzly bears in a human-dominated landscape to explore coexistence. What we found surprised us. Tons of mortality, tons of conflict, and yet also tons of bears—3x denser than Banff National Park. How could this be possible? conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

I'm Clayton. I do wildlife stuff. I'm reserving my place on the various social options until one is decided by the people
