A bit late, but we’ve (@rachhson.bsky.social @nickdulvy.bsky.social) wrapped up our second week measuring rays across Europe. Goodbye Paris and thank you to the teams at @mnhn.fr who made it possible! 🇫🇷✨on to London 🇬🇧!

Environmental-impact reviews should take a more regional perspective
Resource projects and other industrial developments are generally evaluated in isolation, which ignores harms between landscapes and watersheds.

What a great weekend for E2O!
The Palen & Côté labs made waves at #PEEC2024 at the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre.
Meanwhile, the Dulvy lab shared insights at #NEPSSVI at the Seattle Aquarium.
From local invasive species to global protected areas, we are passionate about sharing our science! 🌊🦈

One in seven species (14%) of deepwater sharks and rays is threatened with extinction - and overfishing is the main reason theconversation.com/fished-for-t...
Fished for their meat and liver oil, many remarkable deep-water sharks and rays now face extinction
Long lifespans and slow reproduction rates make deep-water sharks and rays as vulnerable to overexploitation as whales once were. We must place them under protection to avoid extinctions.
