NEW PAPER: we looked at top-down vs bottom-up effects on a threatened grizzly bear pop. The influence of risk vs food differed between habitat selection, fitness, and density--suggesting caution using behaviour to inform the conservation of populations. wildlife.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Great talk by Melanie Dickie at AB Wildlife Society conference! Impressive #WoodlandCaribou habitat mapping effort to characterize change in disturbance features and #HabitatRestoration across #caribou ranges in BC & AB - using Lidar, sat and ML tools to get high-res veg data on all LFs

Interesting findings on the gut microbiome of #WoodlandCaribou presented by Scott Sudgen at AB Wildlife Society conference. Change in diet during maternal penning leads to shift in gut microbes

Intriguing findings on density-dependence of home range size presented by Juliana Balluffi-Fry at AB Wildlife Society conference. Hares with indiv food-add have a *stronger* density response - asks if patch "familiarity" be an important factor beyond strict energetics?

Energizing wildfire panel to kick off day 2 of AB Wildlife Society conference. Lot of challenges to balance and it's a worrying start for the 2024 fire season in AB. Need for revitalization of cultural burning, proactive mgmt to reduce exposure of key values, & build resilient forests

Fuse team getting re-caffeinated at AB Wildlife Society ☕ Fuse Consulting Ltd. #FuseKnowledge

Loved this fun and visually-engaing presentation by @beccamaysmith at AB Wildlife Society conference! Demonstrating differential spp responses to disturbance features in and outside parks - need to consider broader landscape context of protected areas

Andrew Barnas of #ACMElab levelling-up the #SciArt quality at AB Wildlife Society conference

Our study highlights complexity of animal behaviours, and that there are no silver bullets for coexistence. It's clear animals are working hard to adapt to our ever-expanding presence, and we need to do our part to ensure we can keep sharing space with the wildlife we cherish..8/

A great 1st day at the Healing the Lands Conference hosted by Saulteau First Nations! Recurring themes around creating a smoother process towards implementation and ensuring First Nations have the driver's seat on #HabitatRestoration in their territories 👏
