Just gave a beaver talk to a Trout Unlimited chapter & marveled at how times have changed. When I preached about beavs to fish-centric audiences in 2018, the reaction was often hostility; now anglers wanna tell me about the huge brookies they haul from beaver ponds. Progress!

Check out this @WildKingdom episode: “Crossing Cougar Country”! One thing unites big cats ranging from the Florida swamps to the Hollywood Hills; urban development threatens their livelihood by bisecting their habitat & causing wildlife-vehicle collisions.

Excited to see the launch of this program that @largelandscapes and our partners helped develop! Looking forward to supporting @USDOTFHWA and applicants as it rolls out.
Wildlife crossings reduce animal-vehicle collisions. FHWA, through the #BipartisanInfrastructureLaw, is providing $350 million to keep people and animals safe. highways.dot.gov/newsroom/bi…

Our new empirical study published in @Nature shows that rapid changes in bat ecology and behavior – driven by habitat loss and climate variability – drove the emergence of Hendra virus, a fatal pathogen in horses and humans.

Quote of the Conference at #GERConnect22 'Your science is world leading but your policy is shit'. That's from @wildcatalyst, Gary Tabor - Exec. Director of the Centre for Large Landscape Conservation in Montana, regarding our plight here in Australia. Bugger, I think he's right
Gary Tabor retweeted
Friend & ally Keynote Speaker Dr. @wildcatalyst @Largelandscapes ferociously framed the Atmosphere and/or the Biosphere? How do we connect all elements land, air, water for the “conditions to support all life”? #GERConnect22
