Can anyone share a decent guide to Mark-Recapture Analysis for Dummies? Specifically looking for data collection requirements & the subsequent stats. 🦇

I can share codes to #TheOtherPlace in exchange (or just with anyone who wants them, really).

If there's one silver lining from tonight it's that NZ may finally have figured out how MMP works. The Greens, Te Pāti Māori and Act all getting convincing electorate wins on their own merits - ultimately, this is a Good Thing. #nzpol

@temihinga @PaulBrislen has been sharing a bunch.

Write-up of last summer's bat tagging session in Pureora. 🦇Includes cute quotes from bat noob Troy.

Fun story on the "actual madness" of short-tailed bat monitoring in Pureora Forest for Atlas Obscura – thanks Troy Macdonal and Kerry Borkin for sharing some of your mahi with me!

You don’t see this every day. Cross-species spooning on a chilly morning. Sylvie the hoary bat serves as a nice blanket for Amelia the eastern red.

@PaulBrislen Yes please!

I am looking for a research assistant skilled in molecular biology to come and join my lab in University College Dublin and work on ageing in bats!  https://t.co/aJI6QXcDFI and use reference number 016364 @ucddublin @bat1kgenomes @OfficialSMBE

@AndreBellve @NZGeographic @ellerykr Yeah, that is a bummer. Finishing up during covid was the same, and it sucked. Hopefully we'll be able to have a drink or three once you make it back home. 🍻

[Kathleen Collier @katjcollier]

@edinatw @NZGeographic Go you good thing!!

So stoked that @MMEG_UoA has been honoured with an ONZM today - they are an absolute legend in marine conservation and megafauna research in Aotearoa 💜

[Bat Conservation International @BatConIntl]

The Critically Endangered Jamaican flower bat has been in population decline for over 50 years. At one point, it was even thought extinct!
Right now, we have a unique and time-sensitive opportunity to purchase the last remaining parcel of land next to their only known maternity cave! This will protect an important “buffer zone” around Stony Hill Cave and keep it out of the hands of developers.

Donate to protect these bats from development. ❤️
