"Editing the wild". An important reminder that conservation biologists must pay attention to & engage with issues far outside the species & questions they work on- from agriculture to medicine & beyond. https://t.co/7syui9DY7M @Society4ConBio @SCBConGen @gbike_cost @gsegelbacher

#biodiversefashion Once you see it, you can't stop!

[Robert Blanchette @forestmycology]

A student in class told me there was a Ganoderma gown worn at the MET gala on Monday. This surprised me and although I do not know much about high fashion I think she was absolutely right – it’s a reishi dress for sure! So great when students start seeing fungi everywhere.

I just finished a long blog post outlining my guidelines for ethical wildlife ecotourism. This subject is innately complex as we all want to get close to wildlife, yet what we do affects wildlife: sometimes for the good and other times for the bad. https://t.co/Pmt8nBzBRR
