Centre for Animals on the Move at Western
@animalsonthemove.bsky.social
Located on the Western U campus in London, Ontario, Canada. We study animal migration and dispersal and other forms of movement. We figure out the how, when, where, and why of movements, working from genes to ecosystem levels. https://uwo.ca/cam/index.html

Congratulations to CAM PhD student Gabby Orfanides for successfully passing her proposal assessment! How does smoke from fires and malaria affect the ability of birds to make their migratory journeys?
