Hi, we're Wildlife Impact, a nonprofit of conservation scientists. We do evidence-based analysis of conservation effectiveness & impacts, guidance on responsible wildlife translocation, and participatory stakeholder engagement to improve conservation outcomes. doi.org/10.1371/jour..., bit.ly/41M0Cij
A collage of photos of Wildlife Impact activities - clockwise from top, (1) a group of 18 people standing outside a building during a monitoring and evaluation meeting, (2) a woman in a blue and white dress presenting a conference talk on responsible wildlife translocation, (3) a circle of seated people - a scientist interviewing local community members about wildlife encounters - with several observers standing nearby, (4) a group of 8 people in colorful clothes standing against a wall with yellow letters saying "Jabatan Hidupan Liar Sabah" (Sabah Wildlife Department) for a meeting on orangutan conservation action, (5) a man and two women are looking at an enclosure holding a primate at a sanctuary in a forested area (part a sanctuary strategic planning workshop), and in the center, a group of 11 children huddling together and smiling for the camera in a village in Maiombe National Park, Angola. A group of 5 people seated around a table with laptops and binoculars, working on evaluating the cost and conservation effectiveness of orangutan protection interventions, with the occasional bit of birdwatching on the side. Clockwise, Dr. Emily Massingham (Wildlife Impact/University of Queensland), Dr. Marc Ancrenaz (HUTAN), Professor Truly Santika Rintanen (University of Greenwich), Julie Sherman (Wildlife Impact) and Professor Erik Meijaard (Borneo Futures).

One more indoor cat upside - they like to watch wildlife documentaries with you

Hi Bluesky! New refugee from the Democracy Destruction Derby of twitter since takeover by Musky Odor of Doom.

We're a nonprofit doing conservation science & advocacy, evidence-based monitoring & impact evaluation, and capacity building. Office assistant #cats are adorable but incompetent.🌎🧪🐈
Tuxedo cat Maisie is doing yoga in a sunbeam on the green office chair in front of a window, and giving some side eye to the whole working idea. She really needs everyone to stop typing so they can pet her. White and grey cat Kenneth is helping with a big writing project by laying on the draft pages I'm editing and begging for tummy rubs
