Gaboon Forest Tree Frog (Leptopelis aubryi) from Korup National Park in Cameroon. I look forward to visiting that friendly country again hopefully in the not-too-distant future.

A sight most don't see every day: a Venus Flytrap in its native habitat. Their global distribution is restricted to SE North Carolina and far NE South Carolina. The species is threatened with extinction in the wild due to development, poaching pressure, and fire suppression.

Tristan Albatross displaying on Gough Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site roughly equidistant from Antarctica, South Africa, and Brazil. This albatross is Critically Endangered mainly due to predatory mice, but also bycatch from long-liner fisheries.

While AI might get the headlines, the reality remains that conscientious, educated, and knowledgeable human beings still drive the whole thing. Nice work John W. Wilson. lnkd.in/eneAMVzY

Was fantastic having Gladys K Zikusoka from CTPH talking about her new book, “Walking with Gorillas”, at Duke University Duke Environment today. Thanks so much Gladys!

Seemed like a good day to drop by a Scimitar-horned Oryx. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species downlisted this species from Extinct in thr Wild to Endangered just today. Full press release at iucn.org/press-release/…

Second time’s the charm! Helps not to visit during a freezing storm! A very lost Red-flanked Bluetail is finally perched on top of my life list!

Exciting development in the snakebite antivenom space! scripps.edu/news-and-event…

A great way to kick off Invasive Species Awareness Week! Excited to be part of this effort.

In 2019 I wrote in Conservation Biology in Sub-Saharan Africa that scientists predicted Africa will be 0.5°C warmer by 2050 compared to 20th century. I just noticed on ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitor… that the last time Ts were under 0.5°C higher was the year 2000! 2023 was 1.41°C above average! #climatecrisis
