Today the Seibu Lions baseball team host their Save Lions Event and will donate to our lion conservation work each time someone tweets #savelions before 4pm. We are so grateful for this generous support and encourage everyone to tweet as much as possible. oxfordujapan.org/save-lions/

Our first advent calendar fact comes from Liz AD Campbell: Barbary macaques live in snowy areas. To survive tough winters, they huddle with monkeys they have a close relationship with, so monkeys with more “friends” can form larger huddles and are more likely to survive.

New paper on Barbary macaque habitat selection & human activity found monkeys use roads to be fed by people when food availability is low but also when traffic is greatest. This information can help us prevent monkey road collisions …lpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111… @BinoMajolo Dr. Laëtitia Maréchal

#Fieldwork in the #AtlasMountains Probably not how you imagine African wildlife conservation research!

Very fun way to track animals at night, if following animals in the dark is also your thing. These are the glowing footprints of a red fox. Seek Thermal
