It’s #EndangeredSpeciesDay today! If left unchecked, unsustainable exploitation, habitat loss and degradation and #ClimateChange could cause up to a million species to disappear in the near future.

Let us all work towards a world that can sustain all life on Earth.

My and @malcolmsramsay 's paper is out in American Anthropologist! We analyzed rates, taxa, and topics of anecdotal data publication in #primatology. We found a decrease over time and discuss the implications. Disproportionate publication on apes is present in all pub types.
