Ok extremely overdue life update time: I am beyond excited to be starting a postdoc at Stony Brook University investigating drivers of north Atlantic right whale habitat use! 🐋🐳🐋
Interested in socio-ecology, maternal effects, and/or very cool tool-using 🐬s? Come chat in my virtual office hours for #ABS2022 !!! I'll be there starting at 1pm EST! Link on the conference website, or send a dm!
We have a new paper out in Behavioral Ecology! In it we show how resource competition and habitat type shape individual-level social behavior in the Shark Bay dolphins. Congrats to the authors @AlexisLevengood @VForoughirad@Ewa_Krzyszczyk@c_frere !

#WhaleWeek podcast: Killer whales are some of the most unique marine mammals. We talk with Dr. Megan Wallen, a marine mammal specialist in our West Coast Protected Resources Division, to check in on endangered Southern Resident killer whales.

Hi again for the last thread of the day! I hope I’ve convinced you that the dolphins of Shark Bay are a fantastic study system to look at #personality and #ecology and that long-term studies give us unique insight into the lives of long-lived #mammals#ABStakeover@TCamille22
1/4 This work would not be possible without the collaborative effort of everyone involved with @sb_dolphins. This kind of longitudinal study is especially important for long-lived and slow growing #mammals. Some of my study subjects are older than me! #ABStakeover@TCamille22
1/5 My first #PhD chapter found that #dolphins have social traits comparable to extraversion/introversion in humans. These preferences begin to show as calves and remain into old age! #ABStakeover#academicchatter@TCamille22
1/6 Hello and happy Monday! I’m Taylor Evans, here to host #ABStakeover today! Very excited to chat about #dolphins, #personality, the intersection of individual sociality and ecology, and why long-term studies are important for our understanding of animal behavior! @TCamille22
BREAKING: The university will be holding on campus booster shot clinics for students, faculty and staff in December, per an email sent to the community from Dr. Ranit Mishori. Booster shots will not be required but are encouraged.
