Did you know baboons follow a majority rule approach to decision making around group movement, rather then following dominant individuals! Fascinating to hear about how animal social groups and choice from one of our EBE seminars #EBE2020#socialanimals#baboon

For scalloped hammerhead sharks to survive the crushing pressure of the ocean they rely on a special oil in their liver! The same oil can also make a vaccination more effective, is balance is need to ensure our demand is met but without damaging their population #EBE2020
African elephants are evolving not to have tusks as a consequence of decades of poaching. Normally, 4% of females are born without tusks but due to poaching pressures 98% of the 174 females in Addo National Park, Eastern Cape, were born tuskless #2020EBE
