@scat_dogologist We had a pile of “scat rocks” on our desk after the sampling season, totally get it 😅

(delayed) life update: I have moved to the great state of Wisconsin 🧀 & am now the Asst Large Carnivore Specialist for WDNR! It’s been a great couple of months, full of 🐻 , 🐺 and 🦁 work! I have a great team & truly have never felt so supported in a role before 🥲🤙🏼 #movingup

@AveryShawler It was a decent mix, cattle reps, some other state wildlife agencies, rmef, etc, I’d say decent group of folks, but still trying to understand what the end goal is, and maybe that’s the point, all that is still in the works? Still wrapping my head around it 🤷🏻‍♀️

Pros and cons of using #congenr ? Versus #microchecker ?? #conservationgenetics #microsatellitelocus #popgen

[Danielle Deming 🐾 @dani_deming]

Using #chatgpt for statistical testing in #rstudio …pros/cons? Any resource suggestions? 🙏🏻⬇️

@AveryShawler Asked my buddy who thinks a gar! And I quote “that’s cool as hell!”

@joeyhinton22 @nywolforg This is the kind of field innovation I live for, brilliant!

[Danielle Deming 🐾 @dani_deming]

Very cool study, not to mention all puppies !! 🐶, but further encourages the idea that a “settled” down pup is easier to train than starting them super young! (ie: Ive waited with Raven as she begins to mature before starting her heavily on scent, it’s just better for us both!)

[Kayla Fratt (she/her) @eco_odorologist]

It's no secret that dog handlers can influence their dog's behavior. Handlers can push their dogs into false alerts, pull their dogs off of odor, and much more. This study examined how age influences a dog's ability to ignore misleading human cues. (1)

Can PI’s stop putting grants in for PhD level projects but recruiting master’s students? There are capable students losing their minds bc they were set up for failure

Wildlife Techniques students @UF make videos where they address a problem w/ how wildlifers conduct research. Have a minute? Please add a question to a video - this interaction w/ professionals is immensely helpful! Thank you! @UFWildlife @UF_IFAS https://t.co/mPmHjSXLJw
