I had some great chats with young conservationists and practitioners at the 2024 Youth in Nature Summit!

We also led a workshop on how to establish your own youth board, drawing from insights gained from our experiences on the @OfficialZSL Youth Advisory Board.

Long overdue post here, it’s been more than 4weeks since I’ve been back from my 11month stint tumbling and falling after mandrills in Gabon as a field assistant @MandrillusP: collecting behavioural data, poos, pees and everything in between, and A LOT of audio Credit @AliceBaniel

Hot #PhD reminder:

A tiny dose of 30 focused minutes a day yields a lot more in the long term than forcing yourself to work 8 hours today, getting overwhelmed, burning out + stalling!

Tiny amounts done consistently add up massively.

[Bilal Mustafa FRGS @itswildbilal]

A #gharial is seen first time in #Pakistan in after three decades. It was thought to be #extinct a video is viral about #fisherman getting it rid from net. It’s critically #endangered according to @IUCNssc redlist. @EuroCrocNetwork @crocodiledunphd
