This week I had the opportunity to represent Université de Sherbrooke at #CSEE2025, presenting my research on Eastern chipmunk behaviour and life-history.
I am honoured to have been able to attend, and discuss the future of ecology and evolution with both new and old colleagues and friends.

I had the opportunity of presenting the first preliminary results of my project this week at #CSEE2025, which we hosted in Sherbrooke. I’m extremely grateful to have met amazing researchers and fellow students, most of which, love frogs as much as I do 🐸.

Few pictures from the last month on the field. Tadpoles are growing quickly and the different treatments definitely have a significant effect on their size 🐸🐸🐸!

I’d have to go with a Wood frog, the upper lip is green in Green frogs and white in Wood frogs (which is the case here). I also prefer the first picture.
