🐷New paper in Nature Food🐷 THE BAD NEWS: overall, we found trade-offs. Farms with lower GHGs had lower land use, but higher antimicrobial use and poorer welfare. THE GOOD NEWS: trade-offs weren't inevitable. Several farms performed well in all four ways. 1/5

Tracked migratory birds are documenting their own deaths along the African-Eurasian flyway. Energy infrastructure, illegal killing & poisoning to blame, outstripping natural mortality causes in tracked raptors, storks & cranes. #Ornithology doi.org/10.1016/j.bioc…

Two Spoon-billed Sandpipers tagged in Thailand last month safely reached Eastern China - they stopped at multiple coastal sites. Their journeys once again underscore the crucial role of interconnected coastal wetlands in conserving endangered species along Asian flyways. Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force

The endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper K9's spring migration from Thailand exceeded expectations, with a 19-day stopover in Jiangsu, China. It continued to Sakhalin & then reached a new breeding area in Russia! These insights will help inform critical conservation actions Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force

This Spoonie [Yellow PU] was first flagged in Jiangsu, China in Sept-2018. It was later re-sighted in Meghna Estuary, Bangladesh where it spent the winter from Nov-2019 to Mar-2020. After that, it wasn't seen again until this summer in Chukotka, Russia! Amazing results Spoon-billed Sandpiper Task Force

New world record! 2440 Spotted Greenshank seen y'day at 720mu roost site, Tiaozini, Jiangsu in China's Yellow Sea #WorldHeritage Site (& 14 Spoon-billed Sandpipers, 3 legflagged!) by Hongyan Yang, Beijing Forestry Uni. More roost sites need to be made so not all eggs in 1 basket!

Huge congrats to @gnavalon—it’s brilliant to see our new 80-million-year-old bird on the cover of @nature! Navaornis hestiae provides the clearest insight yet into how and when the distinctive brains of modern birds evolved. Paper open access: nature.com/articles/s4158…

Camera traps, sound recorders and drones: great for monitoring wildlife, not so great for human privacy. Trishant @cambridge_uccri found the technologies are even being used to intimidate and harass women in an Indian nature reserve 👇
