81% of the British public support a ban on bottom trawling in the UK's Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). 64% of respondents thought bottom trawling was already banned in MPAs. @OceanaUK @oceana

Happy Birthday to William Buckland!!
In case we haven’t shouted about it enough... Oxford Prof William Buckland wrote the first ever scientific description of a dinosaur!   He described Megalosaurus using fossils such as the iconic jawbone, held in the collections @morethanadodo.   #Megalosaurus200

The first ever @IUCNRedList assessment of the #Himalayan #wolf was recently published. Led by WildCRU’s Geraldine Werahn, this follows a decade of research work to confirm ‘Canis lupus chanco’ is genetically distinct from wider ranging Holarctic grey wolves.
