Well done to Susie Phillips on our new paper with Cheshire Wildlife Trust Amphibian and Reptile Conservation that finds evidence of inbreeding in reintroduced populations of a protected amphibian and supports further management actions to ensure survival. With @lovethedove11 Rach Matthew Geary

Next up from @BioSciChester Chester Conservation we have @GW_Shannon who will talk about how he uses acoustic approaches to study the effects of human disturbance on wildlife: THIS TUESDAY 7th July at 1pm BST. All welcome - DM me for access link.
