Hudson Bay polar bears are ready to head back to the sea ice & catch up (really just catch) with a few seals. Some cooler temperatures now so that bodes well. Many bears will have depleted their energy stores (using ca. 1 kg/day) so they need to start feeding again soon.

Despite giving talks around the world and publishing 65 peer-reviewed papers, Tamzin Blewett is most proud of getting other people interested in water sustainability, in order to have “a larger impact than just the science I’m producing myself.” https://t.co/SGZU7CF7DB #top40yeg

Brutal decision - without any proper consultation. Won't speed up traffic but rather make roads slower & more dangerous for cyclists and motorists. Also great cities like Paris and London are installing more bike lanes and are better than ever while Toronto goes backwards.

Pumpkin carving in the Choy lab @McMasterU with a spooky design that’s for the birds! 🦉Happy Halloween! 👻🎃

New polar bear paper. Largely confirmation of what we thought. Evolution & species divergence is less like a tree & more like a vine: lots of intertwining over time until new species can't produce viable offspring. Polar bears & brown bears haven't been separated long enough yet.

This is a great opportunity for #Arctic ECRs! I'm one of the vice-chairs of the Social & Human working group (SHWG) of the International Arctic Science Committee, so happy to answer any questions - and hope we'll get plenty of great applications to join us as Fellows 👇

The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.

Hudson Bay polar bears are waiting for sea ice. Churchill is cooling now but freeze-up will be a fair ways off. The bears are using up ca. 1 kg (2 lb) of body mass/day while fasting. Most bears were in good shape this year so it's looking good (if freeze-up comes soon).

Two days ago, a 10-year old Black child was brutally scalded with boiling water by a Quebec woman while he walked by her home. I don’t see people condemning this vile act or those in government making solidarity statements.
Where is the outrage?
Racism is alive & well in Canada.

🚨 Hot off the press! 🚨

As drones are becoming increasingly prevalent in avian research, there is a growing need to understand the impact of drones on birds. Check out our recent meta-analysis for some recommendations on best drone operation practices!
