1/2🚨🐵 Excited and especially proud to share my latest research in @EcographyJourna ! 🐵🚨 In this paper, we integrated climatic data with remote sensing to model the current and future distributions of the Amazonia’s largest primates:

Very nice Youtube channel! Concepts are the building blocks for all theories, hypotheses, and empirical investigations.
Enjoyed starting a YouTube channel describing concepts in conservation. Have ideas for future videos but welcome suggestions of something interesting that illustrates a general issue. Also welcome ideas for getting this known by those who would benefit.
