I'm not so good at regularly posting here, but here is something worth sharing!
Using 8 years of camera-trapping data and 60 years of snow-cover data, we show that camouflage mismatch in mountain hares is largest where snow disappeared the fastest.

Start of the first International Small Mustelid Meeting - where we invited weasel researchers from across Europe to share knowledge and explore potential for collaboration. #smallmustelid #weasel

Looking forward to the challenge of presenting 8 years of #Scandcam in five minutes! It really makes you think about what the main take away of the project is and might result in some teasers for further discussion afterwards. Who else will present at #IWC2025?

We added a new 5-min format alongside talks & posters to spotlight key research highlights. No Q&A, but each session ends with an informal discussion.
Perfect for early results, bold ideas & big questions! 💡
Acceptances by April 30 📅

We're working on a common standard for Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) data! 📡🎙️ Hopefully this will boost data sharing, FAIR access & large-scale studies. 🧪 Read about our proposed standard & join our May webinar via @wildlabs.bsky.social

Presenting in the last session on the last day of a conference is always a struggle but happy with the audience I had. #ecm9 Showing #SCANDCAM data on the spatiotemporal overlap between lynx and reindeer. Also representing #Big_Picture announcing more international collaboration studies to come.

I finally made it to bluesky. Looking forward to catching up with old acquaintances and discovering new researchers in the fields of wildlife biology and conservation technology.
