Hi Folks: One month after hiring me, CDFW decided to cut CA's human-wildlife conflict program for the next fiscal year, to the immense detriment of myself, many staff, & Californians. By accepting this job, I had declined other offers. I am now seeking alternatives. Thank you💙

This is a catastrophe. This is a war on women. This is clear gender apartheid! The Taliban are loading women and girls into ranger vehicles and taking them to God knows where?! Does the @UN and @UNAMAnews, who are so eager to recognize the Taliban, see this?

Hi! @InsideOutLGBT a group of LGBTQIA+ NatGeo Society Explorers are coming to DC from all over the world next week. Would you be interested in hearing more from us about being "queer in the field," queerness in the global south, queer ecology, and more?

Excited to share my piece published today in @NatureEcoEvo, "Public interest in individual study animals can bolster wildlife conservation". Inspired in part by P-22, I discuss the broader conservation benefits of naming & narrative. pdf👉🏽 https://t.co/SjFzFmGD5W (@bethpratt !)

The @NYTimes has long had a reputation as a leader in the world of media, but the example they are setting for coverage of transgender people is downright shameful. 🧵(1/15)

I joined fellow @nytimes contributors in signing an open letter that expresses "serious concerns about editorial bias in the newspaper’s reporting on transgender, non⁠-⁠binary, and gender nonconforming people." https://t.co/hFtvpAmWaE

This may be one of the largest ecological disasters in US history. There were roughly 100,000 gallons or 1,000,000 pounds of Vinyl Chloride leaked, spilled and burned at #EastPalestine crash. Acid rain and Phosgene will decimate the zones ecology.

It’s true—dolphins were spotted in the Bronx River this week! This is great news—it shows that the decades-long effort to restore the river as a healthy habitat is working. We believe these dolphins naturally found their way to the river in search of fish. (Video: Nick Banco)

For years people have been illegally sent back from #Italy to #Greece in secret prisons on private ships. After months of investigating, we’ve found where asylum seekers, including children, are being detained. THREAD 🧵

How do women-led households survive in today’s Afghanistan? Three @ZanTimes journalists reveal how the Taliban’s war on women has affected their ability to earn a living and how they are struggling to both work and feed their families. https://t.co/hmrwx0bQeN

In series of new restrictions, Taliban forbid women from participating in live radio and TV programs and prohibits make and female colleagues from co-hosting shows together.

when “Democracy was on the ballot”… every other time during America’s past… There isn’t a single historical example of a majority of white voters choosing democracy. Never. Start there.
