My camera traps to study #puffin diet didn't work that well for their intended purpose, but one picked up another interesting behaviour! Evidence of tool use in a #seabird, with Dora Biro& Erpur Snær Hansen now out in PNASNews. National Geographic Society @OxZooDept pnas.org/content/early/…

Thread about effective and appropriate conservation messages ⬇️ In a good interaction between educators & guests at a zoo/aquarium, the most important thing is that people walk away feeling excited about and empowered by what they’ve learned!

Excellent article on a recent paper lead by Austin Allen describing a proxy to estimate dolphin energy expenditure from #biologging tags! Look forward to seeing this applied to wild populations🐬 nicholas.duke.edu/news/finding-b…

Awesome encounter with what looked like two Oceanic Manta Rays (Mobula birostris) on Wednesday 29 June 2022 while looking for Ziphius cavirostris aboard the R/V Richard T. Barber east of Oregon Inlet, NC USA #oceanicmantaray #DUML #lifeoffshore @AndyAread Annie Harshbarger Zachary Swaim

From our bulletin board to your Twitter feed -- please keep a sharp eye out for this dolphin and call the contact number if you catch sight of it! Thanks!

We got it! Again, excellent team work Duke Marine Lab ! Data from this DTAG will help us learn more about beaked whale behavior (this tag was on a Ziphius cavirostris east of Hatteras Island). @AndyAread Zachary Swaim Annie Harshbarger

Our collective sigh of relief when the tag was back on the boat was probably heard onshore 41 nm away 😅

Caught in the act: escaping dissertation burnout with a little offshore time
