We need to protect livestock & support graziers. We can do so without killing dingoes. Adequate & well-maintained fencing & the appropriate use of guardian animals (dogs/donkeys) is essential. A public reminder. Killing dingoes on public or private land, in NW Victoria, without a permit, is illegal.

Nothing better than a box of quolls!

Spent yesterday at one of the sanctuaries that make up the Tasmanian Quoll Conservation Program, helping conserve both eastern & spotted-tailed quolls in the wild

Check out this incredible shot by @charlesdavisphoto.bsky.social. The tree in this photo is dead, so all the green you see is made up of tens of thousands of Budgies!

Board game enthusiasts and ecologists would enjoy Ark Nova greatly. Long game with many moving components but excellent on second plays. Oh and the cards are excellent.

I rate it 7.5/10.
Bird nerd alert! 🚨🐦 Meet Ale, my board game rival & fellow #PhDork, studying Tasmanian saltmarsh avian communities. Give her a follow! 🦜🎲 #BirdResearch #Saltmarshes

There are native insects on every continent on earth – but just barely. Antarctica has only one, the flightless Antarctic midge. And survival there is all about the insect timing its lifecycle and being ready to take advantage of warm periods.
