The #NationalRedList Database & website being redeveloped is taking all of our focus, so we regret that we are unable to respond to data requests for the time being. It will be worth the wait - we've teamed up with the very talented @OctophinDigital #watchthisspace

1/10 🚨New paper alert!
So excited to finally see this paper published – the #GlobalReptileAssessment for the @IUCNRedList has been a truly gigantic effort, involving >900 species experts & many years of work!

Freshwater habitats cover less than 1% of the world’s surface, yet they provide a home for over 25% of all described vertebrates.

Really excited about this paper. A great follow up on recent butterfly research in Bangladesh, building a solid knowledge base on the group, including the publication of a #NationalRedList for butterflies.

So excited to be starting as freshwater coordinator at @IndianapolisZoo & @IUCNssc in Feb. Joining a great team @SS_Henriques, @CatiaCanteiro, @niksroach, @RileyPollom, Angela Yang, Mimi Kessler.

[Monika Bohm @MonniKaboom]

And a really excellent read too! Go, team dung beetles!

Don't miss our next #ZSLtalks #OnlineEvent on 8th Dec: Putting reptiles on the map - find out how ZSL has led several advances in #reptile #conservation & engages with key collaborators in this field, through @EDGEofExistence, @IUCNRedList & @LPI_Science. https://t.co/4y2wsP4OPD

[John Ewen @hihinews]

Zoos are hurting and this can mean extinction. This alarming situation gives us a clear choice between species extinction and recovery. Like nowhere else it is directly in our hands. Right now. I know what I prefer! @ZSLScience @OfficialZSL @amandaetrask https://t.co/0KPlsr1nqN

[National Red List @NationalRedList]

Ditto, it has been our "home" too. @ZSLScience & @ZSLconservation have helped immensely in development of national red lists! See for example the red list of birds of Nepal https://t.co/tO3zImVbRt

[Monika Bohm @MonniKaboom]

This place has been my "home" for more than 10 years & I feel continually inspired by its amazing work to help both wildlife & people. @ZSLScience @ZSLconservation @OfficialZSL #saveZSL

[ZSL Science @ZSLScience]

In the Neotropics, Parides burchellanus is listed as Endangered: known from no more than 4 distinct areas, its Cerrado habitat is under pressure from urban development &agriculture. Assessed with help from Brazil #NationalRedList team, obrigado! @NationalRedList
