The proposed protocol introduces quality control as a key component of camera trap data processing, thus reducing error rates and making the reporting process more transparent. These principles also...

Y a-t-il un/e français/e vivant au Chili qui pourrait m'orienter sur ce dont Migraciones a besoin en termes d'extrait de casier judiciaire dans le cadre d'une demande de résidence permanente? Ma dernière tentative: extrait apostillé, traduit, et certifié par @ambafrancecl.

Or call it global whilst also highlighting the (big) biases and need for future research? It's an open question for me. Again, this does not take away from the quality of the work - congratulations to all - just questions the framing slightly. 4/n.

I realise the inclusion criteria were necessarily strict, and data for many parts of the world, like the tropics, hard to come by. What do we do in these cases? Limit the scope of inference? Seek a minimum number of points per region? 3/n.

The authors rightly recognise the spatial gaps in the text, but still, the narrative seems overly global for the actual scope (the graphical abstract does not mention the spatial bias - a couple of points to represent the African continent?). 2/n.

I have the utmost respect for all involved in this work and the tremendous amount of synthesis that went into it, so pretty please take this thread as the constructive comment it aims to be. Might it be time to consider what we can and can't consider a global study? 1/n.
#NewPaper: Working with a huge team of 220 co-authors representing 102 projects in 21 countries, we analyzed data from 5400 #cameratraps to ask how #wildlife behaviours changed during the COVID-19 “anthropause” . 1/.
