Forgot to post on here about the first paper from my PhD research, ‘Love in reshaping human-pig relationships: from livestock to companion’ 🐷

I’m not saying anything novel, but I wake up every morning, struck anew with the realization that the worst possible behaviors are incentivized, the virtues I uphold have no market value, the most tragicomically incompetent ppl are in charge, + we’re gleefully flooding ourselves with toxic sludge.

Abstract submissions are still open 👇🏼 PhDs and ECRs encouraged to submit!

Reminder, couple of weeks to go till the deadline 👇🏼

First lecture of the year 📕

Writing my lectures for this term with some help 🐕

Todays charity shop find has given me the motivation I need to return to writing about pigs 🐷

An "accidentally rewilded" 377-acre UK farm is now home to many threatened species, including turtle doves, warblers, 11 bat species, orchids + butterflies.

Such examples prove how nature can recover when we let it, and that rewilding reverses nature loss. 🌍
