Mass poisoning is decimating African vultures. We quantified cost-effectiveness of GPS-tagged sentinel vultures to mitigate this threat. Few sentinels can save lots of vultures—but fast ground response is key. Super relevant study led by Teja Curk: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Think #stormpetrels just wing it to find a meal? 🍽️ Think again! Finally, our study is out: these tiny #seabirds use ocean dynamics to find #foraging grounds in the #WestMed. And guess what? Well-placed #MPAs help keep their ‘favorite restaurants’ open.🧑‍🍳 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
