Introducing WildCRU’s candid camera!

Across global research sites, our team sets up camera traps to collect scientific data, but we also capture unexpected wildlife moments!

I had a great time chatting on BBC Radio Devon and Cornwall about how I became a large carnivore biologist!!

You can listen to a small clip here or follow the link for the full interview 🧪🦁

This weekend on "When I grow up" on BBC Radio Devon & Cornwall, @exeter.ac.uk researcher Jonathan Growcott will talk about his childhood dreams - & how his first encounter with a wild lion led him to his current work on conservation of big cats

Listen at 9.10am on Saturday to hear Jonathan's story

Very excited to see my research featured in Nature Africa! 🐆📸🎙️

We used a combo of #cameratraps and #bioacoustics to demonstrate that leopards have individually identifiable roars!
