Hudson Bay polar bears are ready to head back to the sea ice & catch up (really just catch) with a few seals. Some cooler temperatures now so that bodes well. Many bears will have depleted their energy stores (using ca. 1 kg/day) so they need to start feeding again soon.

Despite giving talks around the world and publishing 65 peer-reviewed papers, Tamzin Blewett is most proud of getting other people interested in water sustainability, in order to have “a larger impact than just the science I’m producing myself.” buff.ly/40twvwz #top40yeg

New polar bear paper. Largely confirmation of what we thought. Evolution & species divergence is less like a tree & more like a vine: lots of intertwining over time until new species can't produce viable offspring. Polar bears & brown bears haven't been separated long enough yet.

The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.

Hudson Bay polar bears are waiting for sea ice. Churchill is cooling now but freeze-up will be a fair ways off. The bears are using up ca. 1 kg (2 lb) of body mass/day while fasting. Most bears were in good shape this year so it's looking good (if freeze-up comes soon).

Two days ago, a 10-year old Black child was brutally scalded with boiling water by a Quebec woman while he walked by her home. I don’t see people condemning this vile act or those in government making solidarity statements.
Where is the outrage?
Racism is alive & well in Canada.

🚨 Hot off the press! 🚨
As drones are becoming increasingly prevalent in avian research, there is a growing need to understand the impact of drones on birds. Check out our recent meta-analysis for some recommendations on best drone operation practices!
