We loved attending @NottsCountyShow on 14 May for the first time since 2019. Have a read of what went on at the annual Midlands agriculture and rural life show and NTU's involvement (and wins) on the day: ntu.ac.uk/about-us/news/news…

Very exciting to to see some of our recent rhino research summarised in @conphysjournal's latest Conservation Physiology In Action article: "Horn today, gone tomorrow - dehorning as an anti-poaching practice for white rhinos" doi.org/10.1093/conphys/coab…

These findings should increase wildlife managers’ confidence that dehorning does not negatively impact white rhinoceros physiology as measured hormonally
