Great thread on simply testing a new idea to make trapping and surveying safer for target species and still effective! Read the whole thread but conclusion; dry PB with oats bait reduces ant attack in rodent traps without reducing capture rate for rodents!

Guess what? That pretty swirl is the tadpole’s intestines. Never thought I’d find so much beauty in animal guts.

Listen to this adorable fox and the sounds it makes running around!
Harper is home, fly high little guy ❤️
This week we were saddened to hear about the loss of Sol the Harris Hawk. Sol had been part of the Harper community for the last five years, cared for by Elin and Dan. Now Harper is his forever home in spirit and we will remember him fondly.

Hey wildlife folks. I think this is an important paper. Marked GPS collars on cougars, bears, bobcats, and coyotes Scat-detection dogs and genotypes camera traps. We compared models with no to full individual identifiability and develop integrated model. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

This is how you quarantine! Now to go to the isolation of the woods and find spiders to call pets (whilst leaving them in their natural homes). I'm not allowed vertebrate pets in my appartment and I don't want to steal spiders from their families!
Dear Twitter, meet Puck. That’s right, I panic bought a puppy and he is happy to be in isolation with my family. He’s 10 weeks old and very happy to be the center of attention. (Is this how you do quarantine?) #QuarantineLife Not today, #coronavirus!
