Our team has published a new study @AvianAce showing that #cats kill between 19–197 million #birds each year in Canada!
In the time it has taken you to read ~3 posts (1 min) 114 birds have been killed at the paws of cats in Canada.

Bird protection is a shared responsibility and everyone, including #cat owners, veterinarians, animal shelters, and municipalities, can play a role.
Keeping cats indoors protects wildlife and keeps cats safe by eliminating dangers such as cars, predators, and disease.

Williamson’s sapsuckers rely on Old-growth forests to raise their young. With less than 8% of its habitat currently protected, our researchers are discovering what more we can do: ow.ly/5Kz650X1JvR

ALT A Williamson’s sapsucker clings to the trunk of a tree. A round hole is visible in the trunk nearby. Green moss grows on branches extending outward, and blurred foliage fills the background.
ALT Two people walk through a sunlit forest, surrounded by tall, straight trees. Sun rays filter through the canopy, casting majestic light and shadows across the grassy forest floor.
Congrats to Olivia Wilson on a very successful and excellent thesis and defense. @UNBC
HUGE congrats to @VanessaHum_ . She successfully defended her MSc thesis today @SFUBioSci . She gave a truly inspiring presentation showing how she has integrated art into her science.

Hey #TWS2024 attendees! In 2013, cats were estimated to kill between 100-350 million birds annually in Canada. Has recent work on outdoor cats in the decade since changed this estimate? Come see my talk on Sunday 2 pm in Key 2 to find out! 1/3

Opportunity to conduct graduate research in Saskatchewan on one of the world’s most poorly-studied terns! @usask @SCO_SOC @WaterbirdSociet #migratoryconnectivity #ornithology #birdmigration
Can not speak highly enough about this program. Happy to help support an application as academic mentor or conservation practitioner. Topics related to migratory birds, forestry, or urban ecology and conservation. Feel free to make a pitch to me.
