🔊 Sound on! 🔊Arctic wolves howling to call their pups back to the den before the hunt – Alert, Ellesmere Island (2019) 🐾 Pups seen at the end Fieldwork biologists, share your best ‘Nat Geo’-worthy moment! I have more coming… *Research conducted with appropriate permits


Turning a blind eye on toxic behavior is easier than calling it out and confronting the narrative. "Regardless of personal views on trophy hunting — or any other topic — [online hate] should simply be unacceptable." – @AmyDickman4 Powerful piece here⬇️ dailymaverick.co.za/opinionista/20…


Have you ever crossed a river for fieldwork? Most likely yes. But have you ever seen your study species crossing a river?? I’ve seen Arctic foxes (and Arctic hares) swimming across but Ethiopian wolves surely have the best canid technique for river crossing! 💦 Check this out⬇️

These #ethiopianwolves are crossing the river to protect their borders. The river is very full this day but the wolves are crossing without fear. #BaleMountainNationalPark @KyKebero @ClaudioSillero @Arctic_paws @WildCRU_Ox @wildnetorg @DinkeneshEth



Visited an old vintage shop in the UK and realised that a few decades ago, wildlife photography for large carnivores was mainly taking pictures of captive animals in a (pretty grim) zoo setting… How far would you think we are from that now? #wildlifephotography #animalwelfare

New paper led by @MarinoJorgelina examines habitat loss, fragmentation & isolation in endangered Ethiopian wolves. With just 454 wolves left in isolated Afroalpine regions, EWCP @kyKebero outlines urgent measures for their survival. 1/2 See: bit.ly/4gQiKOf

Our incredible wolf monitor, Abdi! Thank you for teaching me all about the wolves

"The wolf is my life." This is @SamuneAbdi, EWCP's Monitoring Officer, out observing the morning greetings of an #ethiopianwolf pack in the #BaleMountains. 🎥 Video by @KaripapGomez Read more about EWCP's work on our website: ethiopinawolf.org

🚨New publication alert 🚨

Does predator control increase the survival of black-footed #cats in South Africa? A new study by @Arctic_paws and @hollyodonnell00 with the Black-Footed Cat Working Group examined the question by comparing two sites, one with lethal #predator management and one without. 1/2

"On horseback we can cover not only a larger range but also achieve the closest distances to the wolves,” says WildCRU’s @ClaudioSillero Unlike when researchers are on foot, “#wolves don’t react with fear or flee when we approach on #horses.” Read more: go.nature.com/4bLqtcy

End of an era… I’m so glad I got to experience "the office out of town", Tubney House, from living there during my first month in Oxford, the minibus rides in the morning to the great parties in the garden… let’s make the most out of this next year together Tubney ❤️

WildCRU has been privileged to be based at Tubney House since 2004 & we are eternally grateful to everyone who made this possible. We are excited to announce that we will be moving to the new Dept. of Biology Life & Mind Building in Oct 2025. Read more: bit.ly/3xi6y6R

I am so proud to be a Bylot Island alumna, to have seen the power of that monitoring program, the truly groundbreaking scientific contributions, the commitment of the PIs but also of the graduate students who, like me, loved that field site. Read here⤵️ frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Sophia, our "mom in the field", making sure that we were properly fed and caffeinated every day… I’m glad you were there this time as well, checking on me, telling me "eat, eat" with a smile, nudging me forward, and ever so gently taking care of the #EWCP family. Thank you ❤️

We like the Mountain nyalas, but what we like more is an Ethiopian wolf hunting in front of nyalas! 😎 And they were all curious to see how the wolf was doing as well! #EWCP #WebValley #BaleMountains


Mountain nyalas in the Web Valley, ever so carefully making their way in the open… #BaleMountains
