Canid Howl Project

Research team using acoustic monitoring to track wild canids and investigate both inter- and intra- species interactions 🐺-🐕 #bioacoustics #scicomm

[Canid Howl Project @CanidHowlProj]

We’re starting to find some really interesting vocal interactions between dogs, wolves & coyotes 🐺 🐶 Here we’ve marked where these species seem to be responding to each other over a 3 min period. You can listen to the clip here: https://t.co/SzwDeX8430 #bioacoustics #scicomm

Dive into the secret world of canid vocalisations in our latest @CanidHowlProj research paper 🐺🎤 Seems coyotes aren't scared to howl back to wolves or dogs and the forests are alive with the sound of interspecies dialogues! 🐕🌲🌐 #Bioacoustics

Project update! 🚨 At the start of January we had an incredible 2 weeks deploying our acoustic recorders to monitor and localise wolves in Yellowstone National Park 🐺 We have a ton of data to analyse and so many amazing howls captured 🤩 Thanks to @YellowstoneNPS for having us!

Thanks to funding from the @GreatPlainsCons Big Cats Initiative we’re out in Nepal with @Grizanderson working on a new #bioacoustics project to help facilitate coexistence between people and tigers 🐅 / leopards 🐆! Stay tuned for updates from this trip and throughout 2024! 🇳🇵

🐯🐅Exciting new project! We're in #Nepal 🇳🇵 working on preventing human-wildlife conflict with large predators like #tigers and #leopards. The local Tharu people are committed to protecting their native wildlife, but suffer unacceptable losses as the natural habitat shrinks

🚨Exciting news!🚨 My next book, "Why Animals Talk" will be out in January! You can pre-order it here https://t.co/nWFTzwvaf1

excited to share one of the coolest camera trap videos i’ve ever captured… from our coastal wolf work in @KatmaiNPS 🐺 🐻 context is this cam was set on a rendezvous site where the pack was raising their 5 little puppies

[Jay Lombardi @JayVLombardi]

Come work with me with wolves 🐺

[Beth Smith @BethRSmith_]

Reflecting on an incredible few days at @WolvesBorders... Been a privilege to present in the same space as so many legends of the wolf world and so many others doing amazing work 🐺 So much knowledge and so many new friends gained! Huge thanks to the organisers 👏 #WolvesBorders

Cool talk on wolf genomics today at the @wii_india by @laurenhennelly1 ! 🏔️🐺⛰️ 🧬

[Domestication Lab Vienna @DomLabVienna]

🐺🐶PhD alert! 🐶🐺Fully-funded PhD position at the Konrad Lorenz Institute of Ethology, Vienna! "Do human attitudes towards wolves and dogs actually reflect the human related temperament traits of
the two species?"

[Canid Howl Project @CanidHowlProj]

🚨 New paper! Using recordings of #coyotes and #wolves from Wisconsin, we show how a combination of acoustic localisation and custom high-resolution land cover maps enable the study of animal habitat use and behavioural ecology in a non-invasive manner 🐺 https://t.co/LcdqG4nXcj

After the #Lynx family footage posted earlier this year, now…the UNEXPECTED!!

A kitten pulled down the tree with my camera trap & started playing with the strap, like a child with a new toy!

The Lynx comeback, a great conservation story of #rewilding Europe

It's cold and wet and windy in Cambridgeshire. But in less than 24 hours I'll be in steamy Hanoi and from there to the northern forests, home to the rare cao vit gibbon.
Stay tuned for updates on our program for passive acoustic monitoring of this critically endangered species

[Marcella J. Kelly @marcellajkelly]

Started this paper forever ago. It's finally out! Yes-you can tell fawns from adults by the width of their hairs. Important when analyzing hairs found in carnivore scats! Shout out for @vt_fishwild undergrad research turning into published paper @whapavt

[Canid Howl Project @CanidHowlProj]

Looks like we're off to the @WolvesBorders Conference next year! 🐺 We'll have a poster on acoustic monitoring, acoustic localisation, and automatic detection of canid howls that we can't wait to talk to everyone about 🎉 #bioacoustics #wolves @BethRSmith_

[Beth Smith @BethRSmith_]

Abstract accepted! 🎉Looking forward to talking about my @TrentUni PhD research in Romania with @FaunaFloraInt on the ecological impacts of livestock guarding dogs at the @WolvesBorders Conference next year 🐺🐶 Who else is going? 🇸🇪
