Some have questioned whether the blerb from-Saving Biodiversity-was legit! This pic that proves it-"The book follows the author’s life...being chased by elephants, sniffed by lions, gored by quokkas, and watched by wolves."

Litoria littlejohni is #Endangered & @ConservationUon recently got the chance to apply some of our research knowledge to help improve its plight by creating artificial ponds to increase habitat and restore connectivity. Within 3 months, the ponds had LLJ in them @Uni_Newcastle

Looking for your first quantitative ecology post-doc? Then get in touch.

I will be co-supervising a post-doc with Lourens Swanepoel (based in SA: @Univenofficial). You will have access to many awesome data sets and the focus will be on applying hierarchical models.

40 km of trekking through high altitudes in the Annapurna region has left sore muscles & amazing memories, with unforgettable learning experiences of the community conservation initiatives conducted by the @NTNC team. The @uni_newcastle team was supported by the @NewColomboPlan.

Exciting day on the @Uni_Newcastle Wild #Nepal @NewColomboPlan trip where we learned how the local community has worked so successfully to conserve #vultures after the diclofenac devastation. Saw 7 species!

There’s a cool new book on conservation available for pre-order (at a large discount on US Amazon) - I know the author: https://t.co/xv1kbFdPwx

NSW’s native forest logging industry is bleeding money — $73M in losses over 4 years. Independent analysis find it’s 'not economically viable'.

Time for Labor to deliver on its promise to end native forest logging & grow tourism-based economies.

A powerful statement from @LeadersSouthern - 'Our wildlife, our rights, our decision'. It's easy for people like @rickygervais to pose with T shirts: if only he would take time to listen to those doing the hard job of coexisting every day with #wildlife

A new study finds that up to 91% of planetary boundary breaching can be attributed to the top 20% of global consumers.

There is no such thing as sustainability without expropriating the rich.
