So finally (now for realsies) changed my twitter handle from the teenage-legacy @sk8sbd (don't ask me about it, it's embarrassingly silly) to a more adult yet "hey-look-I'm-still-fun" ChatGPT-suggested version, @CritterMapper

The badger crew really smashing it this #AIMS2024
@PauleemilieRuy @CritterMapper @SammyHareBall talking disease, modelling and population genetics!
So many good talks this intern can't keep up with the tweeting!

Go check out this attempt by a Catalan seabird person to write about Irish mammals. What could possibly go wrong?

π’ In our latest #AtoZofSustainability research, @CritterMapper @UCDSBES explores complicated history of mammals in Ireland including past extinctions of large mammals, present management problems future reintroduction of some long-gone large mammals
π ucd.ie/earth/blog/a-zofsustaβ¦
ALT Illustrative poster for M is for Mammal blog post in A-Z of Environmental and Sustainability Research. Description: The history of mammals in Ireland is complicated, with extinctions of large mammals in the past and management problems in the present. Will it come full circle with the reintroduction of some of the long-gone large mammals in the future?, asks Virginia Morera-Pujol, a postdoctoral researcher in the School of Biology and Environmental Sciences

A week in the life of K29, an adult Herring gull we tagged on @ucddublin in summer 2023, that's still going strong in the new year. The maps shows points from the last week of January. @UCDSBES @scienceirel

It me! I had a blast explaining the ins and outs of badgers in Ireland at #BES2023, so much so that I forgot to tweet about it at all. Lots of feedback and interesting ππππππ ππππππ ππππππ conversations.

Come work with Adam if you like urban gulls and tracking data and a cool city to live in (if a bit on the expensive side π

Come find me at poster 49 (upstairs) to see how we plan to evaluate the effect of deer on forests and biodiversity! #Trees4CBP
P.S.: Also, lmk if you have a ticket for dinner you're not going to use!

Loving this women-led @BritishEcolSoc #trees4cbp conference! Come see my poster (no 49, upstairs) if you need a rest from trees though, there's heaps of animal pictures there!
