Super exciting #BatResearch by @runflyjump

#Bat wings tear easily, but where do most tears occur and why?... sad, but interesting and important work by @RobynAnneGrant #batcare #WBTC1 #EvoBeh1

[Robyn Grant @RobynAnneGrant]

5/5 #WBTC1 #EvoBeh1 So why more tears in the plagiopatagium? We propose that cats are targeting bats bodies and their claws are tearing the wing. This is also confirmed by #batcarer observations. Sad, but great work by @ran777no @_BCT_ #BatCatastrophe 🦇🐱

[Robyn Grant @RobynAnneGrant]

Well done @GaryDougill for successfully telling @McrMetEngineers all about our work with whiskers, maths and robots! Great discussions and excellent cake too!

@AniMAS_lab Mariane is readying for the @MMU_CEB talk right now! I can't wait to hear all about rictal* bristles! *carefully check the spelling there!

[AniMAS @AniMAS_lab]

@RobynAnneGrant @GaryDougill Needs more Christmas lights! Glad you guys found a solution

[Robyn Grant @RobynAnneGrant]

The highlight of my day was watching @GaryDougill use @cbrassey's 3D scanner to scan my fluffy toy dormouse. Cutest experimental set-up ever :)
