🐗🌿 Dr Hannah Mumby and research assistant, Sammi, led a group of CityU students on a field trip to Aberdeen to explore human-wild boar interaction. The students gained a deeper understanding of conservation and sustainability in urban areas. A valuable experience for all!

Excited that we received funding to support our research on wild boar diet in Hong Kong. We’re interested in how much is derived from highly processed foods that humans make. 🐗

What a great field trip! It was a pleasure to learn more about biodiversity on Lamma from @bonebraking and the students.
Another great Cons Bio field trip to Lamma. Lots of good insects and toads. And a close call with a snake... which I’m pretty sure was a cobra
