Fit Cheetahs is a #research project with @heriotwattuni.bsky.social analysing #cheetah tracks with WildTrack's Footprint Identification Technology for non-invasive #wildlife #conservation. Opinions are my own.
Happy #InternationalCheetahDay! 🐆🐾
Great day with Five Sisters Zoo, visiting schools in West Lothian to talk about #cheetah #conservation. Fantastic interest and engagement by all the students 🐆🐾

'Where the Wild Things should be' is the theme of #NationalMammalWeek.
With fewer than 7,000 #cheetahs left, the species is classed as Vulnerable by the IUCN. Over the last century, the cheetah has lost >90% of their population as well as their distribution range.

This year's International Tracking Symposium #ITS25 was simply fab! Great workshops & speakers, a perfect venue in Holland and an amazing group of participants. I managed to attend talks & workshops on human #tracking, preservation of feathers & bones, scat morphology, antler ID & deer behaviour.

With a brilliant audience of trackers & beautiful weather we held our talk outside at this year's International Tracking Symposium. We discussed benefits of tracking knowledge for #wildlife #conservation & how to get trackers more involved in academic #research & #CitizenScience projects. 🐾🐾

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

Let's celebrate the #biodiversity of our planet. So many beautiful & amazing species of which the #cheetah is a stunning example. Many, including the cheetah, are on the brink of extinction due to loss of habitat, illegal trade & conflict.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
