Fish considered thermally tolerant can still be extremely vulnerable in early life. We found that developmental temperatures of 33Β°C (regularly experienced in North Qld) resulted in severe spinal deformities and mortality in mosquitofish. Read it here: nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

Time for your annual reminder that it’s Tasmanian devil dispersal season! This means young devils out finding their way in the world are particularly vulnerable, & often drawn towards roads for easy passage & food. So watch your speed on Tassie roads this season (& always!)

A variety of species across the animal kingdom can reproduce both sexually and asexually, including some types of starfish, water fleas, hammerhead sharks and Komodo dragons. @jcu theconversation.com/facultat…

Facultative sex allows some animals to reproduce with or without a partner. So why can’t humans do...

I wrote an article for @ConversationEDU about facultative sex, after I found out that many people outside of biology have never heard of the concept. I think it's such a neat ability that everyone should know about! Read it here: theconversation.com/facultat…

Still adjusting to the heat and humidity of North Queensland but a recent highlight was getting to see fireflies for the first time. Got a shot of one on my hand - such amazing creatures! #WildOz #firefly #bioluminescence
