From next week, Instant Wild will be taking a break while we explore how best to use tech, like AI, to support conservation and cit sci. During this time, the platform will be offline, & you won't be able to tag images, but we hope to share an update on its future in the spring

Kicking off #NewYear and #CameraTrapTuesday with this interaction in #Kingston last year!📸
These two #Foxes were caught chasing a #Badger🦊🦡Not something we've seen in our surveys before, but perhaps a result of compact urban living!

🦈Happy International #AngelSharkDay !
Did you know that Wales is home to the critically endangered angelshark (Squatina squatina)?
Once thought to have disappeared from our coast -over recent years sightings have increased, confirming there's still an important population here🙌

.@RishiSunak The Zoological Society of London Bill would ensure we can continue to protect nature. It's nearly completed its passage through Parliament. It can pass with your support. Don't miss this opportunity to support British science and conservation please support our bill.

We received this excellent Jaguarundi picture from our cell camera in Costa Rica yesterday. They are elusive wild cats that are related to Pumas. They eat birds and iguanas and just about anything else that they can catch.
