QCons Lab trip to @UW Women’s basketball thanks to @scheuerell and @mark_scheuerell. Go Huskies!
Zoom captioning rendered "Cormack-Jolly-Seber model" as "Karmic Jelly Sewer model" in my lecture recording from yesterday. Just hoping this doesn't resonate with the students. @LabGardner
Great thread on so much excellent work to inform conservation translocations! Read it for examples and for inspiration!

Great postdoc with a wonderful advisor and scientist @AlexMcInturff. Come to Washington and help us figure out this whole chronic wasting disease thing.
Exciting new postdoc position at UW on the human dimensions of chronic wasting disease management is now open for applications! depts.washington.edu/wacfwru…
Its great when your student has a supportive partner who really tries to understand the #PhD experience.

Both social and experiential learning influence resource tracking by migratory birds. Young birds learn through cultural transmission, and older birds pass it on. New paper led by Briana Abrahms with @cs_teitelbaum, and Thomas Mueller. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Bird-dom outdid itself with the albatross. ❤️❤️❤️
SUPER SLO-MO Check out this slow-motion footage of a Tristan albatross in flight over #Gough– can you catch where it lands? The #albatross fledglings have a while before they’ll need to perfect a land-landing! #WandererWednesday 🎥Georgina Cole @rzss @NatureTristan @Natures_Voice
Great new group of @NW_CASC Fellows including our very own @labbbratt!
🍂🍁🍃 Leaves are changing & the weather is blustery, which can only mean 1 thing - this year’s @NW_CASC research fellows are kicking off their fellowship activities! Meet these researchers developing science to address real-world #ClimateAdaptation needs! bit.ly/2ZyyqCj
Please RT! I am recruiting a graduate student to lead work on the extraordinary but threatened Cascade red fox in Mt Rainier NP, in collaboration with @TCastanea and @ilovewolverines. Accepting applications through December 1 @UW_SEFS or @UW_SAFS.

How do we manage sustainable Indigenous harvest of polar bears in a changing climate? New work out in @ESAApplications led by Eric Regehr @PolarScience_UW and a great companion piece written by John Meyer at @UWEnvironment. environment.uw.edu/news/2021…
Nice feature on our work led by @amandajwarlick with lots of great collaborators. Amanda is running down the mystery of Cook Inlet #belugas’ continued tenuous status.

Hoping to hear from our collaborators if this is a member of the endangered Cook Inlet population. Animal movement is fascinating. bit.ly/2YqpHBA

So proud of my friend @NMGasparini for being an awesome scientist but most of all for being an awesome person. Congratulations on the well-deserved award!

Need your thoughts #SciTwitter - I'm handling reviews of a report for an agency. Wondering about appropriate honoraria for reviewers. Report is the size of a long-ish journal manuscript. What's reasonable? Note this is an underfunded state conservation agency. Thanks!
Come work with an absolutely brilliant scientist, @AlexMcInturff, and join us at the WA Coop Unit!

Online @ESAApplications, an evaluation of camera trap-based abundance estimators for unmarked populations. Lead by the inimitable Staci Amburgey, with Amy Yackel, Shane Siers, @LabGardner, @bt_mcclintock, @njhostetter. Spoiler alert: news is not good... bit.ly/2WrxGxP
Got photos? @labbbratt is looking for photos of partially degraded marks to illustrate a new model. Examples: a color-banded bird with some bands missing, alpha-numeric marks with some numbers unreadable. Please send leads!
