Italian government trying to take hunting legislation 30 years back. Part of the proposal is blatantly illegal under EU law. Hardly any of it makes sense.

First Black Johnson, now Banana Island. What the actual fuck is going on in the heads of those that claim to lead us? Where’s our Minister of Tourism? Where’s our Minister of the Environment? Where’s @PresidentBio? Where’s anyone with half a brain?

Here's the story of how some senior academics plagiarized my work, led by my former advisor Stuart Pimm.
I reported research misconduct to @DukeU a while ago.
Earlier this year, they had to acknowledge their wrongdoing, though they did so very subtly.
This is what happened👇
We are delighted to present a poster of our PhD student @Claireevin at #ICCB2023 on "Assessing the impact of terrestrial protected areas in abating threats to mammals". Thank you for this very interesting work!
#ICCB2023
Calling all @ICCB2023 who are interested in protected areas, effectiveness, counterfactuals, threat mapping - come see me at the poster session today. First one you see coming from the AD rooms, hope to see you at 5!
The results just came in last week and are part of my PhD that I started when this little one was born. So nice to be able to bring both my babies to Rwanda 🇷🇼
Last but not least! To wrap up your time at #ICCB2023 in Kigali join us on Thursday afternoon at 5pm (Room AD11) for a symposium about #eDNA for #conservation in practice with a wonderful lineup of speakers and what we hope will be some interesting discussions!
Second PhD chapter is out @naturesustainab! Together with @beckyck and @m_dimarco we estimate the importance of high priority regions for biodiversity conservation in maintaining the provision of regulation of air quality, climate and freshwater quantity.
