Nilou and three other conservationists are finally free!

[Dr. Nina Ansary @drninaansary]

Prominent Iranian wildlife conservationist and scholar #NiloufarBayani wrongfully convicted and sentenced by the Islamic Revolutionary court in Iran to 10 years after a torture-tainted confession and sham trial behind closed doors has been released along with three of her colleagues after more than 6 years in prison.
Welcome home Niloufar ❤️🌹

Our former @UNEP colleague #NiloufarBayani is on the
#BBC100Women 2022 List. Niloufar has been jailed in Iran for almost 5 years now. I continue to plea for her release. Environmentalists are absolutely vital #ForPeopleForPlanet

@globalsouthbats @KibiwotSospeter An amazing re discovery! Must have been such a joy to find this bat!

[Angelica Menchaca, PhD @latin_bat]

@globalsouthbats Beautiful work Stephanie! It is very interesting that the level of academic education determines the perception people have on bats in the surveyed population. Did you also survey indigenous communities, where their perception might be different associated to bat deities?

[Angelica Menchaca, PhD @latin_bat]

@KFowlerFinn How about sharing first authorship? His work definitely needs to be acknowledged. I was once una situation where I did all the lab work, analysis, wrote my master thesis and continued in academia when a postdoc “helping” me, published my data without me!

However, to be honest, I still need to seriously try their bat clustering algorithm as I am still lacking a non-demo license to do so :)
Any opinion from any you? I would love to have your feedback!

Todo tiene un orígen, una explicación y por lo mismo puede tener una solución. Cómo crees que es la relación entre murciélagos y Covid-19, @Bioconciencia__ te explica #murcielagos #murcielagosenapuros #soninocentes #COVID2019mx

[PCMM-Bioconciencia @Bioconciencia__]

¿Te imaginas comer como un murciélago insectívoro?
¡Ellos pueden consumir del 25 al 50% de su peso en insectos cada día! 🦇🐞🦋🦗🐜🐌🦟

Son excelentes controladores de plagas y ofrecen grandes beneficios a la agricultura.

¡Que valiosos los murciélagos que polinizan tantas plantas! ¿Cuál disfrutas más?🌺🌼🌻🌸

La violeta enamorada,
la retama encaramada,
la madreselva mezclada,
la flor de lino celosa.
¿Cuál es la más hermosa?
