@TurtlesRCool2 @Ceire_Booth how i imagined you the night before a deadline after proof reading your assignment 😂😂😂

[University of Kent @UniKent]

Research by @HelenPheasey , @DrDavidLRoberts and Professor Richard Griffiths of @DICE_Kent into using sea turtle egg decoys to track poachers has been covered by the @guardian.

REMINDER FOR DRIVERS‼️ Drive slowly on country roads. I have seen two dead 🦔this week and one of them was only a baby 💔Obviously, drivers can’t swerve animals BUT people must stop speeding on country roads. If they went slower, they might stop in time.

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

Went through this after finishing my undergrad and I'm sure it's still the case after a masters. This is such an issue in general but ESPECIALLY within the environmental sector and grad jobs BARELY exist that are directly related conservation. All we can do is persevere💪

So amazing to see the interesting research my #marvellousMSc cohort is doing! Many of us had to change projects so it's nice to get an idea of what others have been up to! #DICECON20

How can foraging help cities?

1. Local production & sustainable livelihoods

2. Multifunctional green infrastructure

3. Citizen engagement & co-governance

4. Urban biodiversity conservation

In recognition of all of this, in 2019 @UniKent was awarded a Queen’s Anniversary Prize for excellence in “Education, research and capacity-building by the Durrell Institute to support global nature conservation and protect biodiversity and ecosystems”.

5/6 #HumWild1 #DICECON20 Interim results: 🇬🇧👥 are more tolerant towards living with 🐘 than 👥 from 🇿🇲&🇳🇦, suggesting: 🇬🇧👥 are not able to fully comprehend African realities & more awareness is needed around their influence on African wildlife policies. Tolerance drivers TBD 📈

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

@AnotherBobSmith So busy! I've screened about 3000 papers and whittled it down to around 60 that made the cut (I had VERY strict inclusion criteria)!

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

1/6 Hello #DICECON20😊Thanks for the opportunity to present my masters dissertation research! This summer ☀ I have been conducting a rapid evidence assessment (REA) of large herbivore impacts on vegetation in relation to #rewilding 🌲🌳🌼🌱 #ConsEffect2

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

@TallyYoh @DICE_Kent With the increased amount of vegetation, there is an increase in carbon sequestration which is great for #climatechange mitigation 🙌

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

@TallyYoh @DICE_Kent Of course! Lots of research shows that large herbivores specifically are ecosystem engineers and that them just being there - disturbance, browsing, grazing - creates different habitats and niches so that nature (fauna and flora) can thrive!🌻🌺🌿🐸🪱🪲🐍

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

Thank you @m_ddlvoigt ! Thanks for being an awesome chair!

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

@wildlifeinwater Hi Kevin, I haven't come across any that have compared them experimentally but there are definitely some reviews that look at various species, some native and some alien/non-native, and the impacts of both!

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

6/6 I am currently analysing my data & hope to get results that will help with ongoing & future #rewilding projects! #shoutout to my supervisor Prof Richard Griffiths and @DICE_Kent for funding my project 🙌#DICECON20 #ConsEffect2

[Julia Daly @JuliaNishimoto]

5/6 I used REA to search the academic literature for studies of European large herbivores which incl. 1. Release/addition of large herbivores (e.g. bison, reindeer) 🦌 & 2. Their impact on vegetation 🌱 #DICECON20 #ConsEffect2
