I gave an interview to the BBC at midnight while the #LAfires were raging outside and I couldn't sleep. Turned into one of the most thorough and well-researched articles on wildlife and wildfire I've had the pleasure of contributing to.

I walked by the Berkeley marina today and saw a Blue Heron hunt this rodent. It was impressive, it stared at it for 2 minutes and then 💥 grabbed it with incredible precision… 😱😱😱

Wildlife contributes to human well-being and values in visible and invisible ways that are under-recognized or dominated by conflict narratives. We review these critical contributions and what research and policy is needed to protect them: www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Wildlife’s benefits to people’s daily lives are underrepresented in science and policy discussions, an omission that @worldwildlife.org researchers and ESPM professor @ornithoale.bsky.social say could have detrimental consequences for achieving global conservation targets. nature.berkeley.edu/...

Happy to see this out! Led by Nicole Adams, we ask if morphological shifts in birds driven by climate change are accompanied by genetic shifts - evidence for adaptation? Yes for bill size: "large bill" alleles decrease over time! Not so much for body size. bmcbiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
