Listen to VU's @RoanPlotz on @abcmelbourne with @aliceinframes about new research on dogs and birds and why leash laws are important. Listen: https://t.co/GBeYnv3gAO @Deakin #vuresearch

Birds are smarter than we think, especially when it comes to sussing out their safety from dogs. Here’s what a landmark study has found > https://t.co/AQUYA12dsg

Birds have a brain, and they know how to use it. New research by VU indicates birds can tell when a dog is on or off-lead. Full story: https://t.co/K1xQCHMSaG @RoanPlotz @Deakin #vuresearch

Delighted to be a part of this little experimental study published today in Birds that was led by a third-year @victoriauninews undergraduate student 🐦‍⬛🦮 Birds understand the function of a dogs leash!

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new partnership that will take our Citizen Science Program, ClimateWatch, beyond the borders of Australia! 🤝🌏 Read more about ClimateWatch Vanuatu here: https://t.co/QyzI4AAgRJ #climatewatch #climatechange #traditionalknowledge @vmgdVU

Delighted to be collaborating with Earthwatch Australia, the Vanuatu Meteorology & Geohazard Department (VMGD), the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP), and Victoria University on ClimateWatch Vanuatu. @victoriauninews @Earthwatch_Aus @SprepChannel @GlobalEbAFund

Why is breaking into a rhino enclosure at the zoo a bad idea? VU's @RoanPlotz tells @NZStuff exactly why!

Today is #WorldMeteorologicalDay, and the theme is the future of weather, climate, and water across generations. Read how a project synthesising indigenous & contemporary forecasting is providing reliable weather forecasts across the Pacific. @RoanPlotz

Research by VU's Dr @RoanPlotz shows that the critically endangered (and poor-sighted) black rhino listens to signals from hitchhiking oxpeckers to evade human poachers. Read more: https://t.co/Q0pHwIyrDu #WorldWildlifeDay #WWD2023 #SDG15 #Biodiversity

Indigenous knowledge and contemporary meteorological weather methods connect to provide reliable, accurate, and accessible weather forecasts for the Pacific Islands in a VU project. @RoanPlotz @BOM_au @Earthwatch_aus @IUCN #SDGs #ProtectingCountry

Park my car round about there normally!

The new tool 'Standardised data on initiatives (STARDIT)' addresses the need to standardize data across multiple sectors, disciplines and languages, including ecology: https://t.co/n15w5WB8b1 #ecology #biodiversity #extinction #preservation #conservation #Data #enviroment #eco

Go @TeamKowari !!

Editorial: Everything to Morrison is transactional. He will keep dealing until the end, even if what he is left dealing in is the lives of children. He is Rumpelstiltskin, locked mad in a room, settling on a first born for his payment. #AusPol #SatPaper

Morrison's advisors weren't happy with the first version.

"Mother of God, you must think we were born yesterday, fella."

For those working in citizen science down under (or anywhere) - STARDIT is now online and ready for you to report your citizen science projects! Learn more: https://t.co/fqXrK4pH9q Pre review article here: https://t.co/QSmX3Gq3Ay #CitSciOz21 @CitSciOZ
