After #SAWMA2024, the @WildEcoLabNMU took to the riverbeds of Namibia. An incredible trip, wild camping near the skeleton coast. A lot was learnt, a lot was shared. 10/10 recommend. Thank you to the Skeleton Coast Brown Hyaena Project for hosting us!!

Very excited to be heading to Belfast for #BES2023. The journey has begun and Cape Town weather has flipped from sunny to rainy (helping me prepare for the inevitable?). All long distance travel advice is very welcome.

We had an amazing week at the @SAWMA_wildlife conference 2024 in Windhoek! 🇳🇦🦓 From the road trip up to Windhoek (via Sossusvlei), to an excellent and jam packed conference excellently hosted by @Save_Giraffe 🦒, the whole week was a blast! 🤩 Some great lab presentations too!

#AfriMove workshop on the go in Windhoek, Namibia. Some great projects happening and exciting opportunities! Great way to end off #SAWMA2024 @SAWMA_wildlife @WildEcoLabNMU

Day 1 of #SAWMA2024 in Namibia. I'll be talking about spotted hyaena movement at different scales in fenced reserves in South Africa, on Wednesday. Looking forward to connecting throughout the event!

🚨 New #OA paper from @WildEcoLabNMU in @ConservationSP 🤩 Led by Marna Visagie, @HoniballT & @RobDavis1104 we estimate spotted hyaena population density in @SANParksAENP and assess the influence of sex on SCR parameters! 📸🐾

Aging is a wild thing. I was thinking of a witty manuscript title, and while making coffee the light bulb turned on and I had one! But immediately after thought "ah but the kids these days won't understand that". I'm barely knocking on 30. It's too soon to have such thoughts.

Amazing to explore to displays of history nestled in the hills of Mapungubwe

How do you eat an elephant? 🐘One bite at a time and with help🍴. Our new paper is out! 🦁🐘🐕🍪 🐆

It's #InternationalHyenaDay whoop whoop! 🤩🍪 Always a day we like to use to showcase the ongoing research projects we are undertaking in the lab to advance hyaena ecology and conservation! 🍪🐾 See more below! 🧵 📸 @ajansenvv @RobDavis1104 @HoniballT

Congratulations to our PhD student @HoniballT for this paper in @TropicalZoology on thanatological behavioural displays in #spottedhyaena! The paper also considers the ethical considerations for management practices of this highly social species. pagepress.org/biology/tz/art…

🚨📢 PLEASE SHARE! 📢🚨 Have you ever seen a leopard or any field signs in the Eastern Cape? 🐆🐾🇿🇦 If so, submit your sightings to the @CapeLeopardTrst competition & contribute to a PhD study on the conservation status of leopards in the province! Great prizes up for grabs!

📢The Humans and Hyenas Alliance is in dire need of a new field vehicle for collaring & outreach! Since we're being featured in the March cover story of @NatGeo (by @cdellamore @jenguyton), we figured what better time to ask for donations? Help if u can: gofund.me/22d77d58

Does anyone know a student (undergrad or master’s) who is an African national & is interested in taking on a very achievable project on spotted hyenas for their thesis on behalf of the @HyaenaSG? We would prefer to have someone from spotted hyena range country leading this. 🍪

#BES2023 done! Thanks to all who attended my talk despite the transport strikes. It was a pleasure sharing a bit of South African conservation! (And learning that there is a Dog Lab in India. Love that) @Wildlife_Harris @WildEcoLabNMU

Recently published and open access: Spatiotemporal patterns of lion space use. Some strong patterns, despite ~few physical barriers. A follow-up on lion fence ecology is coming soon! @Femke_Broekhuis @AmyDickman4 @LionLandscapes @ChrisWilmers @SchmitzLab besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/26…

Another exciting PhD opportunity!! If population genetics and genomics analysis is your thing, check it out! 💪👇👇👀 #megafauna #novelecosystems

Day1 of #ORC2023! Some great networking so far and much more to come. Come find me to figure out what I'm doing! #ORGC @WildEcoLabNMU

It's world rhino day! To an animal which has taken my breath away in so many ways. Mostly in awe, sometimes in unfitness

What a privilege to have been able to present @HoniballT @WildEcoLabNMU PhD work at #IMC13 @MammalMeetings . Please connect with her if you want to learn more about her hyeana research.
