Excited to share a @chicagotribune.com article featuring our work on contraception to manage #rats in cities. Contraception is a promising tool to reduce our use of rat poison, which harms the health of people, pets, and wildlife🐀🦉

Former US special forces soldier working for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), Anthony Aguilar, recounts how a 5 year old Palestinian kissed his hands to thank him for the food he gave him. Seconds later, Israeli soldiers executed the starving child. #3E #FreePalestine 🧵

"I witnessed the IDF shooting at the crowds of Palestinians," Anthony Aguilar told the BBC. He added that he has never witnessed such a level of "brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population" www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Big thanks to @scrappynaturalist.bsky.social @masonfidino.bsky.social @sbmagle.bsky.social @urbanzoochory.bsky.social @drjuliekyoung.bsky.social Kelli Larson, Anita Morzillo, Anne Short Gianotti, Chris Schell, Seth Riley, and Jeff Sikich. What a dream team!

We also showcase mountain lion P22 as an example of coexistence, except for two periods when he was in poor health and came into conflict with people. This is a great example why wildlife health should be centered in conflict prevention strategies.

We use bird feeding as a case study to show how human-wildlife interactions can create health tradeoffs for both wildlife and people, scaling up from individuals to communities

I've been thinking about these relationships for a long time - coyotes with mange being more likely to use human resources (www.researchgate.net/publication/...), and rat poison potentially affecting rat infection dynamics (www.researchgate.net/publication/...)

Our framework posits that human-wildlife interactions affect human health, and these health risks and benefits inform how humans respond and manage wildlife. These actions can affect wildlife health, affecting future rates of HWI. All in the context of environmental health and resource availability

Really excited about our new pub on how health (of people, animals, and ecosystems) can affect, and are affected by, human-wildlife interactions

A piece for Manufactured Ecosystems about the future of pollination about who decides what gets pollinated if humans and our devices are the only pollinators. 🐡🧪

The definition of “weed” is usually pretty arbitrary and usually all sorts of native plants get caught up in our human biases. 🧵

If you love libraries, tell us why and repost this!

It's a space full of optimism - that people want to learn new things, meet people, and share ideas. It's also one of the few places you can go without buying something. The library is one of my son's favorite places and I'm grateful for mine

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

What a great endorsement to vote Liberal or NDP or Green (depending on your riding) today 🇨🇦

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.”

Happy World Rat Day! 🐀 Here's to staying curious about rats and improving rat management
