Animals don’t just live in their environments—they transform them. And in doing so, they may also shape their own evolutionary trajectories. Our new paper in Trends in Ecology & Evolution introduces a framework for zoogeochemical niche construction. A thread 👇

Stories and science, oh my! Thanks @AIBSbiology
for hosting @GAdamMeyer and I to chat about our new paper in BioScience! We talk about narratives in science and provide tools for creative storytelling in ecology and conservation. Have a listen!

[Kristy Ferraro 🦌👩🏻‍🔬 & 📚🐛 @KristyFerraro]

We often lean on heroes and villains to make sense of the world—but nature rarely fits that mold. Our paper in
@AIBSbiology looks at the hero-villain trope in ecology & conservation, and offers ways to tell richer, more honest stories. @GAdamMeyer

I’m absolutely honored to win a prize named after such a bold advocate for wildlife. Thank you @AER_ESE_BES, @BritishEcolSoc and my fantastic collaborator on this work @ChrisMAHirst! 🦌

[Kristy Ferraro 🦌👩🏻‍🔬 & 📚🐛 @KristyFerraro]

I’m delighted to be shortlisted for a prize that honors such an impactful ecologist! This was a super fun paper I did with another ECR, @ChrisMAHirst and we loved getting to show the power of using open-source, government-sponsored data from @NatureScot. Thanks @AER_ESE_BES!

Thanks for the feature @ScotlandTBP! @ChrisMAHirst

[SCOTLAND: The Big Picture @ScotlandTBP]

Researchers suggest two solutions for the "alarming" loss of key nutrients from our uplands due to deer carcass removal...

1) Leave culled deer carcasses on the hill 🦌

2) Allow more deer to die naturally, perhaps aided by reintroduction of natural predators. 🐾

1/7 Excited to share our new research published in @BESJournals @AER_ESE_BES @KristyFerraro! We found that removing culled deer carcasses in Scotland may be draining environments of vital nutrients. 🦌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #EcologyResearch #DeerManagement

Deer culls in Scotland may be having unintended environmental consequences through stripping habitats of nutrients when carcasses are removed.

It seems everyone is excited about the potential of Rewilding, and we are, too! So, we dove into all the complex contextual dependencies that matter when Rewilding for climate change. (1/3) @PaN_BES
