Oftentimes I find that two things can both be true

I’m a savvy, modern researcher. I have dozens of windows and hundreds of tabs open at all times, each containing articles I’ll never read. I yearn for Chrome to crash and deliver me from a nightmare of my own creation.

What the labs get up to on Fridays with @BillSeverud and the twitterless Dr. Ellen Aikens. Only wish I had gotten to participate in the field work too!!!

[Bill Severud @BillSeverud]

I am happy to share our first joint lab paper! And so proud of our students for their work on this!

Love going radio silent to my dearest friends for months at a time, and then texting them how much I miss them and love them and then not responding when they get back to me. 🙂‍↕️

I think it's called a romp of otters, actually

New Paper Alert🚨

Ever wonder what wildlife populations looked like to our grandparents?

We tracked how a century of land use and climate change impacted the distribution of weasel habitats @RolandKays @DavidJachowski

[South Dakota State University @SDState]

In the 1990s, river otters in South Dakota were nearly extinct. After reintroduction efforts, the population slowly grew. Now, two #SDState researchers are attempting to learn more about the state's river otter population and habitat needs.

Who wants to work with BATS!? 🦇

Recruiting a MS OR PHD student interested in assessing the distribution and habitat of South Dakota's bats w/ emphasis on the threatened ones!

Possibilities for mist netting, transmitter deployment, & acoustic sampling!

@AECheeseman @MammalMeetings Omgggg, I'd pay you back if you brought some otter earrings home 😇

PHOTO FRIDAY: @BotanistBen captured his encounters with ornate orchids adorning the bogs and fens of Shoshone National Forest. You can find them too — if you’re not afraid to get your feet wet. https://t.co/ZUN2VfpEqI

My dad bought a sewing machine to fix his boat cover without having any prior experience using one.. he just keeps breaking needles and watching YouTube videos.
