Did not expect @SteveBackshall to enter the debate on the latest #SharkBytes video! https://t.co/HouRbgKiXJ - Come and join in the conversation on YouTube everyone 🦈
Watch these AMAZING #NurseShark foraging behaviours in the video below! Nurse sharks are likely plastic in their selection of these #behaviours, adapting them to the diverse habitat characteristics across tropical seascapes. Read the paper here: https://t.co/3FYSAkWq5M Pls RT!🦈
BRAND NEW #RESEARCH - Out now here: https://t.co/3FYSAlezjU! #BRUV surveys in TCI reveal discrete foraging #behaviours in Nurse sharks. FOUR novel behaviours identified, showcasing Nurse #sharks as important species for energy flow across tropical seascapes. Pls LIKE & RT! 🦈🦈🦈

Did you miss our #infographic yesterday? #Fibres released from the washing of clothing are one of MANY potential routes for their subsequent ingestion by UK #shark species - Pls LIKE & RT! Our #OpenAccess paper is available here: https://t.co/VRk36MDs0i 🦈🦈
NEW research out today in @SciReports! Empirical comparative evidence of #microplastic ingestion in demersal #sharks found off the UK coast. Provides important baseline for future research. Please LIKE & RT! Available at: https://t.co/hDwk4blEfy #PlasticPollution#ExeterMarine🦈
Last week at #EEA2019 myself and Olga signed our names to a letter urging @EU_Commission to ban retention of Atlantic mako sharks & implement measures to minimise incidental mortality. We wholeheartedly support the #NoLimitsNoFuture campaign by @SharkTrustUK! #MakeTime4Makos 🦈
Hi Twitter🖐 I'm so excited to be officially starting my PhD next week at @UoExeterCEC. I will be researching the visual ecology of fish in order to optimise bycatch-reducing LED lighting technology. Any tips or advice for a new PhD student? #phdchat#phdlife#AcademicTwitter
Attention 🦈 fans - we have a brand new episode of #60secondSharkScience right here just for you! This week I’ve been at #EEA2019 presenting some of my research on elasmobranch #entanglement and our new citizen science project ShaREN (@SharkEntangle). Please retweet widely!
Hi 🦈 fans, unfortunately there’s no new episode of #60SecondSharkScience this week as I’m away on holiday. Alas, have no fear, I’ll be back with the sharks soon and there are some great future episodes planned! For now, and for my new followers: Check out the first episode below
Snapped this ironic scene in Starbucks yesterday. The backdrop shows a billboard discussing sustainability and conservation. The little sign in the foreground by the non-recyclable cups says “Please only use our single-use complimentary cups” - Come on... 🤷🏼♂️#SayNoToSingleUse
Parton et al (2019) identified 47 elasmobranch #entanglement incidents from the scientific literature between 1941-2019. Since July, ShaREN has received more shark/ray entanglements (60), than the literature reported in the last 80 years - Thanks to you all 🦈 #CitizenScience
🦈 Attention #shark fans - another episode of #60secondsharkscience right here for you! Sadly the weather has forced us indoors 💦, so today I’m inside talking to you about some of the #Microplastics we’re finding in our sharks! Please RT widely 🦈!#AcademicTwitter#SciComm
🦈 Attention #Shark fans and #ScienceTwitter - a brand new episode of #60secondSharkScience is here for you! Today we’re so lucky to be able to bring to you the Spiny Dogfish, thought to be critically endangered in the North-East Atlantic. Pls retweet widely! 🦈 #AcademicTwitter
