Selamat Hari Primata Indonesia! 🦧🐒🇮🇩

Happy #IndonesianPrimateDay! Lets celebrate Indonesia's incredible primate biodiversity, and raise awareness for their protection. The majority of Indonesia's primates are at risk of extinction due to habitat loss and other human influence!

Amazing views of a Fin Whale (!!!) in Falmouth Bay today, found by @tvmarinelife and filmed here by @LukeStoppard ! My 12th species of cetacean seen in Britain! Great to see such a big crowd gathered to enjoy the spectacle 😍

@CamGoodhead @PrimateSociety @UniExeCEC Congratulations Cam, well deserved!

Arrived in Belfast for #BES2023, will be doing my first ever conference talk presenting my research on biodiversity surveys with thermal drones in Borneo! 🦧😬

If you’re interested, check it out at Wednesday 13th 4:30-4:45 in the Conservation Science and Policy Session, 2A! 🌳

“It’s definitely about working with communities to understand what their needs and perspectives are”, a very informative and interesting read!

Our field teams are continuing 20 years of orangutan research in Borneo's Sebangau National Park 🦧 #OrangutanCaringWeek

[Dr. Wendy Erb 🦧 @wendyerb]

Delighted to share this story about a #bioacoustics field trip led with my collaborators @BorneoNature & Uni Muhammadiyah Palangka Raya for H.S. students of Mungku Baru village. What a privilege to share a love of the forest w/young people who live there! https://t.co/BJjkVTR6kj

Update from the team in Cornwall this morning- fin whale found dead stranded at Fistral, Newquay. James Barnett and his CMPT team together with volunteers from @CwallWildlife Marine Strandings Network responding to investigate, more to follow.

🦍📊 📈Today in our great ape behaviour course (& lineup of fantastic female guest speakers! 💪) we had the pleasure of listening to Dr Julia Kunz (Univ Montpellier) present on primate sexual conflict 🦧 Fantastic talk followed by a thought-provoking Q&A 🤓🧐😃 @UZH_Science

[Georgia (she/her) @gsecolife]

Another hugely inspiring talk ran by @ConScienceExet given by @northernlimitpt Dr Erin Wessling touching on the importance of behavioural ecology research and its vital interdependence with conservation.

[Georgia (she/her) @gsecolife]

A fantastic session today ran by @ConScienceExet listening to talks on the impacts of fire and toxic haze on primates from @BNF_Intl , and how local ecological knowledge contributes and is essential for our understanding of behaviour, feeding ecology and much more from Chloe!

[Helen Chadwick @Helen__Chadwick]

My first first-author (or any author) paper is out today! ✨📝

We used a 21-year #CitizenScience dataset to conduct a spatial and temporal analysis of grey seal #strandings in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly 🦭

@ELokuciejewski Huge congratulations Emma. Is it possible to tune in online?

[Emma Lokuciejewski 🦧 @ELokuciejewski]

I'm presenting my PhD research at the #IPSKuching conference (Thursday, Plenary room, 11:45). Come and say hi! 🦧👋

[Borneo Nature Foundation Intl @BNF_Intl]

July 31st is #WorldRangerDay!

Today, we'd like to celebrate the hard work and dedication of our field staff, as well as the 15 community patrol teams helping to protect Borneo's last great vestiges of tropical rainforest.

Great blog written by Kacey emphasizing the significance of funding in conservation whilst drawing attention to the discrepancy students face: aspiring to pursue passions, but unable to finance opportunities required to gain valuable experience. What’s deemed just and unjust?

Today is #WorldForestDay!

Although plants rarely come to mind when we think of endangered species, there are plenty of threatened trees whose survival is just as important as that of the animals living in their branches.

Reminder that you don't need to cuddle orangutans to be an orangutan conservationist. This sends out the wrong message, and is in fact, detrimental to them.
People wanting to interact with orangutans is one of the main reasons why they need to be rescued in the first place.

[ConScience Exeter @ConScienceExet]

Thanks to today's @ConScienceExet presenters @abi_gwynn Fredi and
@mollymkressler we learnt about the use of non-invasive monitoring and research techniques including bioacoustic monitoring in forests, eDNA in marine systems and collecting 🦧 poo for pathogen analysis

[Cameron Goodhead @CamGoodhead]

Ok so this was *incredibly exciting* from one of our drone surveys this morning - a massive male orangutan asleep in his nest! 🦧
