New on global conservation science: Dissection of trophy hunting debate on social media: few support, many oppose & many abusive posts. Knowing this can help contextualizing public responses & communicating conservation evidence. Evans et al. Conservation Biology conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/co…
New in Conservation Letters, we propose that conservation culturomics/iEcology approaches should be embedded within the KM Global Biodiversity Framework. These approaches can help us track multiple targets at the interface of human-nature interactions. conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
