BIG new paper on the MegaMove project with @netlab.bsky.social - portal.lancaster.ac.uk/intranet/new... Top areas to reach 30 x 30 for marine megafauna are highlighted
The Portal is the home of news, events, timetables and study information for all students at Lancaster University. It also features useful services and tools.
Happy International Angel Shark Day, especially to all my wonderful colleagues @angelsharkproject.bsky.social
These are a special, and heavily threatened set of species.
Great talk by @mjw-marine.bsky.social on the predictability of European eel aggregations for improved #trap&transport management. @thefsbi.bsky.social
#Angelsharks may be more vulnerable to #ClimateChange than we thought!

Breaking news: it appears Emperor penguin populations in Antarctica are declining faster than predicted.
Latest satellite data shows a massive 22% drop in penguin numbers over the last 15 years in key regions.
This is more than double the rate of loss that experts had expected...

Happy International Angel Shark Day from the IUCN SSC Shark Specialist Group!
There are at least 24 species of angel sharks (Order Squatiniformes) and they occur across the world, from temperate to tropical waters, and from depths of <1m to 1,300m.
New paper lead by @etspencer.bsky.social We use biologging to understand why great hammerheads may specialize on large prey like other sharks. If they hunt blacktips off south Florida then they probably only have to catch a shark once per month link.springer.com/journal/442

Is bigger always better? For social animals, group size is a dilemma: big groups face more internal competition, yet hold an edge over smaller neighbors. 33 years of data on 12 wild capuchin groups reveals how these forces shape behavior.
