Day1 of ECS. Some great talks from Luke Rendell, Anita Gilles, and Carla Freitas, to name a few... and a new love of sperms whales. #ECS #Whales #StillLoveSeals

Pit-stop at Punta Arenas before heading down to Bahia Jackson in Tierra del Fuego to work with the Southern elephant seals. Excited to work with this great team! #seals #divephysiology #isotopes #biologging

Over 5 years of writing code, collating metadata, processing, QCing, reprocessing, QCing, reprocessing… not to mention the weeks, months, & years of field work by a small army of researchers. I am SO excited that we’re sharing this incredible dataset. 👉 https://t.co/oNVKUntwIf

Carried out a #CSIOfTheSea exam on a young 4.36m male minke whale yesterday near Dungeness, Kent. Marked nutritional loss and evidence of live stranding. Stomachs empty- severe parasitism within the intestinal tract and this may be linked to the poor condition. More work pending.

#SMM2024 What an amazing week, amazing talks, amazing people-thanks to everyone who took the time to meet with me. A truly inspiring experience 🦭💙🐋

[Kate Chadwick @KateChadwick20]

Great talk by @LuisHuckstadt on shifting crab eater seal habitat preferences in the face of climate change

[Kate Chadwick @KateChadwick20]

Privileged to also get the chance to present a poster on our work looking at how we can use marine mammals as sentinels of ecosystem change. With a great team @LuisHuckstadt @strandings_man @CwallWildlife @LaurenBiermann , James Barnett & @StuBearhop #SMM2024 #isotopes #seals

First talk given at a conference this size! Scary but a great experience. Really could have used a toddler step..short people problems 😅 #SMM2024

[Kate Chadwick @KateChadwick20]

Great first day at #SMM2024 . Lots of bycatch mitigation work going on, genetics, and acoustic research. Plus an inspiring opening ceremony and talks from #Jodiedwards and #Chelsmarshall

[Kate Chadwick @KateChadwick20]

Planes, trains, and automobiles...it's been a long journey but excited to get started at the #SMM2024.

[Kate Chadwick @KateChadwick20]

Great day working with the CMPT & CSIP . Two common dolphins and two grey seals necropsied for students at #universityofexeter

[Rob Deaville @strandings_man]

Really interesting day at @ExeterMarine helping my CSIP colleague James Barnett and CMPT team conduct #CSIOfTheSea marine mammal exams for @JaredKWA and @LuisHuckstadt students. Two young and thin common dolphins- gastric impaction (bones) and other with heavy gastric parasitism.

@LuisHuckstadt She should be in sales! 😂

In all the bad news this was a little ray of sunshine today - Conservation shown to be slowing biodiversity loss. Action sometimes works! #conservation #marine 🌊 https://t.co/XjShuMk1xe

New Paper 📣. Privilege to be a part of this & working with @DaniOrrell. High site fidelity expressed in grouper in contrast to yellow spotted eel, with both expressing similar trophic niche.

[Danielle Orrell @DaniOrrell]

New paper! Two big questions. How can two mesopredators that perform similar ecological roles coexist? 🤔And if these two species are so ecologically similar, can they be managed using the same approach? 🌋🐟 https://t.co/3S2Hek4Lq9 🧵 Work with @iBioUWindsor & @AscensionMPA

Dionne Warwick: Do you know the way to San Jose
Me: You take a 7hr night coach to Heathrow, 11hr flight to Phoenix, and a 2hr connection 😴
Plus side: I get to learn how to work with elephant seals for a month with #UCSC very..very..lucky!
