We believe sport can help save species. 🦁⚽

In our new @FrontEcolEnviron paper, we explore how professional teams, fans & conservationists can team up to turn iconic mascots into real-world action for biodiversity. 🌍🏟️

📢New paper!! 📢using #BioTIME #timeseries we showed that faster rates of #turnover in community composition were associated with faster rates of #temperature #change across biomes, for both cooling & warming + microclimate availability & human impacts modulate these responses

We are far from conserving migratory butterflies. Our new
paper shows that current protected areas are inadequate for
👉84% of migratory butterfly species in at least one season
👉45% of species in all seasons. (1/7)
