Cats are considered the number one threat to birds in Canada. It's a fascinating and complex conservation issue. Tune into The Warblers podcast with @juliakilgour.bsky.social and @jonathanjojochu.bsky.social to hear some expert insights on human behaviours and cat research.

How many #birds are killed by #cats in Canada? Between 19-197 million! This is the main result from my first chapter of my PhD thesis just published in Avian Conservation and Ecology. ace-eco.org/vol20/iss2/a... @gowelizabeth.bsky.social @ryannorrissci.bsky.social 1/6

Someone brought our admin a stunned young warbler in a cup this morning. Luckily we know just who to call! Thank you @jonathanjojochu.bsky.social & Jelany for your expertise, and shoutout to Sofia for catching the bird when it was flying around the office! 😅

Here is an Op-Ed @qwebber.bsky.social and I wrote on the absurd Bill 5 being proposed by the Ontario government. It is amazing we have to say these things but word needs to get out for those in Ontario....and for those in the rest of Canada and the U.S: keep watch! thepointer.com/article/2025...

Welcome to the newest spot to get your CatCam updates! I am a PhD candidate studying the impact of outdoor cats on wildlife by attaching animal-borne cameras on owned domestic cats! Hopefully I'll be more disciplined and provide more research updates here than over at that last website!
