GPS data first 30 days after helicopter & net-gun capture for adult female deer. Top left animation is the raw GPS data. Top right is the kernels created around the data. Bottom animation is the cumulative distance moved per day. I found seeing all 3 together super interesting.

Happy 4th. Still the best firework scene in any movie. I remember playing pickup ballgames with a stick and balled up wax coated cup. Those were the days.
There was only one night game a year. On the 4th of July, the whole sky would brighten up with fireworks, giving us just enough light for a game. ⚾️📷🎇

Excited for @ForbesWakeHoops and @WakeMBB. As a life long wake fan and graduate, been a while since we’ve had a get like this. However, I’m more excited for Hunter’s next chapter and Wake nation needs to cherish this. Hunter embodies what Wake is about both on and off the court.

Some of the highest recorded mercury levels are being detected among South American birds. Gold mining in the Peruvian Amazon may be to blame, per new research from @LuisFernandez0, @silmanmr and peers correlating contamination in lakes to area birds. tinyurl.com/47wh63em

New podcast episode! Can we bring black-footed ferrets back from the brink? This episode spotlights, quite literally, the black-footed ferret, the most endangered mammal in North America. This small predator calls the Great Plains home and was thought to be extinct… twice! Thanks to community-driven efforts spanning the Great Plains, from dedicated ranchers in eastern Colorado to the Fort Belknap Indian Community in northern Montana, this elusive predator is staging a remarkable comeback. Join us as we dig into this unlikely comeback story, and the obstacles that stand in the way. Listen at workingwild.us or wherever you listen to podcasts!

Hot off the press. Super proud of this effort and so glad to be a part of such an awesome group of co-authors. I owe a lot to my mentor and friend Dr. Roel Lopez. This text is meant to provide a practical guide for users of various levels and backgrounds in the area of wildlife management. While most textbooks are geared towards needs of college students, we wanted a book that could successfully serve in the classroom and the field. Making it equally at home in the classroom as well as the field truck. To do that, it requires providing a foundational base of wildlife management principles while maintaining a coherent thread and emphasis on application. As such, we have attempted to translate emerging research and management ideas into a language that is most useful to on-the-ground managers. tamupress.com/book/978164843…
