What do you know about bluefin tuna in UK waters? 🐟 One thing we don’t know is what they migrate here to feed on... and that’s what the new Feeding the Comeback project is seeking to find out! Wonderful infographic slides created by Rebecca McDonald Studios and Phyllida Bluemel. 🦑🌍🦤🧪🌐🐟

It is time to say Goodbye 🥺 Today is the last day of #Animove at #OTS #LaSelva in Costa Rica. It was two weeks of fun in the jungle with many motivated #animalmovement researchers learning different methods for analysing their data. Stay in touch!

Listen up anyone working in the Irish Sea this summer! We tagged a bunch of kitts in Liverpool Bay and want to gather as many resightings as we can. If you spot these yellow colour rings please give me a shout (dla205@exeter.ac.uk) 🐦💍💛 (Modelled by our very own VIP 😌👑) #Seabirds #IrishSea
