@abenne03 @KeevilMatthew @jamesepaterson @jr4science @JamesBG_27 Right? 😆

A great collection of other examples of legislated species (that taxonomists would scoff at): https://t.co/jEfFxSZLuN

Who's up for the "legislative species concept"? @KeevilMatthew @Christina_Davy @jamesepaterson @jr4science @JamesBG_27

A California appeals court has ruled that bees are "fish" for purposes of the state's endangered species act. While "commonly understood" that a fish "lives in aquatic environments," "terrestrial invertebrate[s]," including bumble bees, qualify legally. https://t.co/X1ShOKFYYQ

Felix too enjoys a good mystery (or snuggle)

“I’ve been making my way through a CanLit collection and some of my favourites are mysteries by L.R. Wright. Murders set along the Sunshine Coast in B.C. makes one want to wander about Powell River, Gibsons, and Sechelt, but maybe not alone on a rainy night...” #WorldBookDay2022

Ok Peterborough Twitter... a desperate plea. I lost an earring recently while @RiverviewZoo with my kids. (In the not-closed area, obviously!)

These were a gift from a friend who I miss deeply and who is far away. Any chance someone found it??? Here is its sad lonely mate...

[Amanda Bennett @abenne03]

@sudburyfrog @LaurentianU Just awful. I can't imagine where I'd be today without the support of @sudburyfrog and my other committee members, mentors, and friends @LaurentianU, first as a student and then as colleagues and collaborators. This is heartbreaking.

[Amanda Bennett @abenne03]

@RouTurtle The Olympus Tough TG-series gets consistently high reviews (I think Jeff H @ scales nature park has used them, if you want to ask his opinion), and Matt's got a Nikon COOLPIX W300 that he really likes.

[Amanda Bennett @abenne03]

Such a pleasure to work with you all! Jackie, Jo, Briar, @Christina_Davy & @rutherford_plr

You're very (and always) welcome @AlgonquinWRS!

It's that time of year again–wading in frigid water in search of salamanders! A small but excellent salamander turnout during this visit. Here's a throwback to last year:
