We need to increase trust in peer review and scientific publishing…and pre-prints and post-publication peer review are not the answer.

Here’s how we’re freeing scientists to collaboratively publish peer-reviewed research at The Stacks. 1/n

[Animals @Animals_MDPI]

📢We invite you to submit your latest research to the Special Issue "Wild Canids of North America: Policy, Ethics and Science", edited by Dr. Michelle L. Lute @DrCoexistence and Dr. Francisco Santiago-Ávila.
⏰Deadline: 30 June 2024.

We are deeply saddened by the deaths of Cisco & Blaze caused by wolves in CO last week 💔

These events underscore the need to ask hard questions about coexistence, reintroductions, & intrinsic value of all life.

My local dog #rescue could use your help. Even just a little bit helps a lot for small nonprofits like ARK of Grace https://t.co/abOztzyziB

Led by wildlife conservation scientist Michelle Lute @DrCoexistence, @ProjectCoyote defends wolves by fighting to restore their Endangered Species Act protections and through a holistic recovery plan across their historic range. 🐺

Mexican wolves are an invaluable part of our wildlife heritage. Wolves that are conflict free should be able to choose suitable habitat themselves, after all they have been doing that for thousands of years.

[Logix @LogixFCU]

We’ve seen some 🐻 WILD visitors at Logix headquarters - each a fuzzy reminder that the 🌲 wonders of #California are right in our own backyard. Thanks to @ProjectCoyote, we learned how to protect coyotes and practice safe ways to share our home at https://t.co/BRRsFME6nJ.

Any unintentional deaths by Wildlife Services “cannot accurately be called accidents because the agency is fully aware of the indiscriminate nature of their lethal tools,” says Michelle Lute, national carnivore conservation manager at @ProjectCoyote #EndTheWarOnWildlife

[Dina Fine Maron @Dina_Maron]

U.S. government agency accidentally killed almost 3,000 animals in 2021——including a harbor seal, I report @NatGeo

Indiscriminate traps, used to reduce crop and safety threats, also snare federally protected species. https://t.co/2FpBEX0rZO

[John Marchwick @JohnMarchwick]

Our @Interior @SecDebHaaland has continued to enable the anti wolf laws across the Northern Rockies. These states can’t responsibly manage wolves as they hurt wolf recovery in other states. @POTUS @ameliexrose @charlidamelio #RelistWolves

ICYMI: You can now stream the interview I did earlier this week with @KCUR's talk show about my coyote reporting 🎧 🐺

Thanks again to @stevekraske and the @KCURUpToDate team for inviting me and to @DrCoexistence for sharing her insights... https://t.co/5SZwtN5gTM

[Earth Island Institute @earthisland]

The federal government’s proposed management rule fails the endangered Mexican gray wolf. It's time for policy reform, reports @DrCoexistence with Earth Island's @ProjectCoyote in @earthislandjrnl. Take action > https://t.co/KB5jD3MpPM

[Michelle L. Lute, PhD @DrCoexistence]

As I explain in my newest piece in @earthislandjrnl, when @ProjectCoyote and friends sued Wisconsin over their war on wolves, we did so in defense of sacred relationships and in solidarity with all life ✊

[Earth Island Journal @earthislandjrnl]

Recently, Wisconsin decided to ignore science, public input, & any semblance of a democratic process or legally required tribal consultation and wage war on wolves with hounds, snow mobiles, and traps. @ProjectCoyote and other orgs are fighting back. https://t.co/wAj6TUfXMQ

I Know Who is Scarier Than the Big Bad #Wolf, Do You?

Bill to kill up to 90% of Idaho wolves heads to governor: https://t.co/cenmEdYiDK -- Nearly 30 retired state, federal and tribal wildlife managers want Idaho Republican @GovernorLittle to veto a bill backed by agricultural interests that could cut the state’s wolf population 90%

[Michelle L. Lute, PhD @DrCoexistence]

Big thanks to @DuaneAnkneyMT and Sen. Brian Hoven for their votes to defeat this undemocratic bill. Constitutional amendments are not the place for wildlife management decisions #commonsense #sciencematters

[Missoulian @missoulian]

On a nearly party-line vote of 31-19 Friday, HB 367 came up three votes short of clearing the Legislature because it needed a two-thirds majority of both chambers. https://t.co/YkmU1MvfLy

Plant-based diets crucial to saving global wildlife, says report:
"More than 80% of global farmland is used to raise animals, which provide only 18% of calories eaten." On what planet does that make sense?
