Last weekend, Lucy Morison and Dr Camilla Soravia presented early findings from our research at #NatBatConf 2026! Camilla showed that lesser horseshoe bats' in-roost behaviour changes with noise, while Lucy linked human disturbance to stress hormones, with implications for bat conservation. #bats

The final talk of @batconservation.bsky.social #NatBatConf was on impact of anthropogenic noise on bats by Camilia Soravia. Importantly considering the impact on roosting bats, alongside the combined impacts of artificial light as well. Read the paper at: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Interested in how light and noise pollution impact the behaviour of bats? In this review we summarise what is known and where we now need to target research, so that conservation interventions are effective and bat populations can fluorish 🦇 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🚨New paper alert 🚨 High temperatures lead to an impaired anti-predator mobbing response to five callers in wild great tits! Loved working on this paper with an all star team of scientists! @dutourmylene.bsky.social @camillasoravia.bsky.social @mandyridley.bsky.social doi.org/10.1093/behe...

Many species benefit from the ability to discern the number of individuals calling in an anti-predator mobbing event, as more individuals likely reduces th

Our new paper is out! @camillasoravia.bsky.social leads this research, which looks into the relationship between heat- mediated cognitive impairment and the antipredator response in wild pied babblers. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Increasingly frequent heatwaves require animals to spend more time thermoregulating at the expense of other fitness-related behaviours. Emerging evidence also indicates that high temperatures can impa...
