‼️Very concerned about the indiscriminate bear killing in Slovakia. It's unjustified, lacks scientific evidence and will have (severe) negative impacts on brown bears in Slovakia, neighbouring countries and beyond. 😠 @tomas_taraba

‼️Large-scale bear killing in Slovakia will undermine conservation efforts from the last decades, not only in Slovakia but also in the Carpathians and Europe More in our letter 👇 https://t.co/1kHU9Ns1Zm

So excited to see our meta-analysis on the impact of conservation action, led by @pennyultimate now out: https://t.co/L9QVGi6XkS. In short: we show that against the backdrop of unprecedented 🌍 biodiversity decline, where we do act, we can start to bend the curve. 🎉🍾

Governments recently adopted new global targets to halt and reverse the loss of biodiversity. It is therefore crucial to understand the outcomes of conservation actions. We conducted a global...

A study by @RiceNatSci ecologist @BeaudrotLydia and collaborators reports for the first time that tropical #mammals living inside protected areas are not spared the effects of human activity even when it occurs outside of the protected boundaries. https://t.co/T0KszFIGHo
