#Rewilding We're a multidisciplinary team of researchers working to collectively understand the ecological, environmental and societal costs and benefits of rewilding. We'll be tweeting our research and retweeting relevant news. 🦫🌊🌿.

We’re running a short survey on how blue spaces (rivers, lakes, coasts 🌊) support people & nature. 🕒 Takes 5 mins, totally anonymous. 👉 Please take part & share — the more voices, the better! #BlueSpaces #Research #PhD #Nature #Rewilding #SurveyBlue

Excited to present my marine rewilding research to the University of Glasgow’s Aquatic Special Interest Group. Kudos to Graeme for the sign. #rewilding #marine

Learning more about the work of the IUCN Species Specialist Groups and the thousands of expert volunteers that support the work. #IMCC7

What an amazing privilege to present my research! Thank you to everyone who contributed and supported it, and to the FSBI for a travel grant. #IMCC7 @UniOfHull @TheFSBI

Here’s how you start a conference! #IMCC7

I’ve been learning about the decline of the African penguin here at #IMCC7. It could be extinct in my lifetime due to overfishing of their prey (sardines) amongst other pressures. There’s a petition here if you feel moved to sign it:

Privileged to be at the #IMCC7 in Cape Town to talk about my PhD research on marine rewilding. Great workshop this afternoon on building marine conservation around community values. Looking forward to the rest of the week! Huge thanks to the FSBI for a travel grant.

We've just set up a new group for our cluster over on LinkedIn. Please go across and follow us to see what we get up to and connect with us and our ideas! .

A profound and sad picture of the “ghosts of species” that used to live in the Lake District, indicated by local place names. Lee Schofield at #BigPictureConference

Mary Colwell on ecological grief at #BigPictureConference “ conservation lives and dies in society”. Hope and knowledge are vital to empower people to support nature.

PhD researcher Esther is at Scotland’s #BigPictureConference. Fantastic lineup of speakers on all things rewilding!

Life of a PhD researcher. On holiday, took opportunity to pick up samples & equipment stored for me at Diglis Lock. The lovely @CanalRiverTrust staff Mark & Callum entertain/educated my kids explaining locks & weirs. Of course my kids chose to ask what the sewage outlet was!!

"Yorkshire is amazingly diverse. crucial haven for declining British wildlife like puffins, wild orchids, & tree sparrows." But "we are losing the species that make Yorkshire special - including curlews & swifts." #StateofNature @YorksWildlife #ActNow.

RT @TrotmanCharlie: Exciting day in Scarborough at #ReMeMaRe24 Lots of great blue carbon research being talked about! .

Back to work today for one of our researchers, @KristyAnna9 after a short break in the Scottish Highlands where we watched dolphins from the shores of the Moray Firth and drove around the banks of Loch Ness. 🐬🏞️🦌 #BackToWork #ScottishHighlands #NatureBreak

This time of year, most of us have been busy carrying out fieldwork. Here @ClareCowgill (plus many others) helped me collect samples for my river eDNA modelling work. It was gruelling, as fieldwork often is. I'm due to return the favour, with a much easier trip in a few weeks!

RT @TrotmanCharlie: Exciting starting on the lab work!

This wee guy just wandered through our garden in broad daylight! A quick check to make sure it was okay, and it was off! 🦔💚
