Conservation, Movement Ecology. Postdoc, Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior. Raptors, pelicans, foxes - if it moves and can carry a GPS tag, I'm in.
Amazing to hear @ediramaal deliver his heartfelt observations at @COP29_AZ on the lack of political will to take the big bold actions we all know are necessary to really tackle the #ClimateEmergency. @JustStop_Oil

Our results offer valuable insights into animal #ecology and #conservation, demonstrating how conservation translocations can advance both fields.
Many more questions are waiting to be answered using this platform, we just need to ask them.

Some see applied and fundamental science as a “short blanket dilemma” — covering one side leaves the other exposed.
But others, including myself, believe we can do both effectively. Conservation translocations are one promising example of this synergy.

Captive-reared vultures also showed reduced efficiency in their primary flight mode, spending more time soaring per meter progressed while gliding. But again, only during their 1st migration.

@jburnmurdoch The numbers should sum to 100% (including of course all the results, not just the two parties), so lamping all polls is problematic.
Also, it assumes a mean random error, which might be true with a large enough number of polls, but probably isn't relevant for smaller countries.
@rasmus_kleis I think it is the wrong question - this message isn't meant to convince people to vote for Harris instead of Trump, it is meant to remind Democrats that might stay at home because "what's the worse that could happen?" why they have to vote this time.
Why did the pelican (blue) land at the same place as the vulture (green)? Took me a few minutes to realize that this is just another incident of GPS-jamming that is becoming more and more problematic for wildlife research (and other things) around the world.

Not finishing an assignment in the time I scheduled for it: "I was inefficient"
Finishing ahead of time: "It was easier than I thought"
This is so cool - a black kite we tagged last year seems to want to be near humans (eventually landing in a damp site), but completely avoiding the city itself.

New paper out! 🚨🚨🚨
I am very excited to share our latest research, where we used telemetry data to assess the year-round roost use of resident Egyptian vultures in southwestern Spain.
