The 1st time I saw #GreySeal! 🦭😍

[MAR ILIMITADO @MARILIMITADO]

Do you know the #GreySeal? 🦭

This #pinniped belongs to the #Phocidae family and it's divided into three #populations: the Western and Eastern Atlantic, and the Baltic Sea.

Over the last two days we've welcomed a group of students from an international school in Carcavelos. They had a lecture and then a boat trip where they observed common dolphins!

A work that takes me back to when I was working as a #ResearchAssistant for @EizaguirreLab!

Congrats @eugeniecyen!

Happy to share our paper is now out in @EvolAppJournal ! We identified over 200 differentially methylated sites that could be used to monitor thermal stress beyond mortality in endangered #SeaTurtles 🐢

Do you know the #HumpbackWhale 🐋?
This species is a rare sighting on mainland Portugal, but last week we were lucky to have an incredible encounter!
Follow the thread 🧵 to learn more about this amazing species (and some special data at the end)⬇️
(1/8)

[MAR ILIMITADO @MARILIMITADO]

Can you spot the diferences? 👀
#Coryshearwater (right) is larger than #greatshearwater (left) with lighter brown upperparts and a caracteristic yellow #bill. Cory's is browner on the face and lacks a dark cap and white collar.

Bon voyage to Fitra and James B, who are on their way to Cabo Verde for exciting fieldwork! 🇨🇻 Feat. a field pic of @Leila_Fouda measuring the curved carapace length of a lovely nesting lady 🐢📏

Any tips for James' first ever field season from the lab's field veterans? 🙌

[MAR ILIMITADO @MARILIMITADO]

Today we celebrate #WorldSeaTurtlesDay. 🌊🐢

These animals are in our planet for more than 120 million years. From the 7 species we have all over the world, 6 are listed on the IUCN redlist, and the other species lacks on robust data to properly access its state.

We are sad to hear that the icelandic government granted further licenses for whaling. Hvalur hf. (Iceland's only whaling company) will be able to kill inhumanely 128 endangered fin whales in the 2024 hunting season.

We don't often capture #cetaceans on the #drone, so always very exciting when we do! Here, possibly a melon-headed #whale?
