Extraordinary research from VU's @RoanPlotz about the red-billed oxpecker - a species of bird who protects the rare black rhinos by calling out when humans are near.

Who better to talk of first year student experience than the students! Max from @victoriauninews said from friends accounts he thought uni would be going into dark lecture theatres & sleeping 😴. He was shocked at VU, no lectures, interactive, engaging classrooms & he loved it!
