Had a fab evening exploring the world of bio fluorescence - I love lichen anyway but wow it’s amazing under UV light!
Thanks @revealnatureuk for leading the walk – at Penrith, England

Also in @cairngormsnews is @jonwud and @searchdogwillow finding dog’s bodies in the snow (and rain). Whilst the Scottish Highland weather is different from here in Yorkshire, @MRSearchDogsEng can be deployed anywhere in the UK, when they are needed. Excellent work!

Névé has been out with other stage 2 dogs to build his searching skills to clear large areas and find bodies. This has included working in coniferous woodlands, open mountain sides and learning some avalanche search skills - thanks to our amazing “dog’s bodies” who hid from us.

It’s not only @HVMRT humans who have been training in the #Cairngorm National Park @cairngormsnews. @Tinkadventures with Trainee @MRSearchDogsEng Névé have been working in the snow too! 🧵

Let’s paws and say “Good dog” to our trusty hair support, on #InternationalDogDay. We are lucky to have @jonwud with @searchdogwillow, and @Tinkadventures with trainee @MRSearchDogsEng Névé here at @HVMRT, our first search dogs in a few decades. Here’s to all our K9 colleagues!

Bodies eye view of being eaten alive by clouds of midges, waiting for our dogs to find them.
We are so grateful to our amazing dogsbodies.
An evening spent on the bed of the old Bar Brook reservoir getting savaged by midge whilst waiting for the tinkle of the collar bell of an approaching @MRSearchDogsEng search dog. Pint of @BradfieldBrew Farmers and a packet of beef @Piperscrisps in lieu of piriton afterwards 😉🍺

@HVMRT @MRSearchDogsEng Willow and Neve were guests at Donaldson's Vets Birchencliffe along with other SAR dogs, Ace, Abbie and Izzy, from @woodheadrescue. Donaldson’s Vets treat the dogs for free, and have raised over £500 recenly. Amazing! @searchdogace @jonwud @Tinkadventures

Last night, @HVMRT were called by @YorksAmbulance to find and treat a teenage boy who had fallen from his bike, and could not be located. Using Phone Find tech, we located him near Butterly Res. above #Marsden. The casualty was treated for limb injuries, and given pain meds.

DOG FIND.
Operational callout 80 for our volunteer handlers in 2023.
Search Dog Wren of @Buxton_MRT found an elderly gentleman who got lost on open moorland and drifted into a deep gully before running out of energy and calling for help.

Good evening . Today has been a satanic day on the moors . . . the inglorious 12th . It may have just cost some mainly men thousands of pounds to kill birds for fun but it’s come at terrible cost to UK wildlife and the environment . @WildJustice_org @ReviveCoalition @LeagueACS @wildmoorsuk

There has been a heroic effort during Storm Antoni by our volunteer dogsbodies today, hiding on Dartmoor for our dogs to find.
This is Search Dog Wren finding Body Dave on Beardown Tor, during a beautiful Dartmoor summers daay.

Heading into the weekend of #NationalMapReadingWeek? Lots of info and ideas for developing your map reading skills are on the Ordnance Survey #GetOutside website. MR volunteers use apps like OS Maps but also have a paper map and a compass as back up.
