🚨 New Research Alert!
Urban air pollution harms wildlife too. A study in Journal of Hazardous Materials shows yellow-legged gull chicks in Barcelona act as sentinels for air quality. 🐦🌆

🚨 Paper Alert!
New study reveals how waterbirds transport plastic from landfills to wetlands in Cádiz Bay. 3 species compared: white storks, yellow-legged gulls & lesser black-backed gulls.

🚨 Paper Alert!
Interesting study by @icmcsic.bsky.social: 97% of bottom trawl hauls in the NW Mediterranean contained marine litter. A massive and persistent problem on fishing grounds.

🧵 Did you know gulls can carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria?

We studied whether this “silent infection” affects their movement. Do they travel less? Use different habitats? 🧬🌍
