#Mink are on the move! This time of year mink are winding up their breeding, with individuals moving around to find new territories. Help stop them in their tracks by adding #MinkRafts to the @MappMink Download the app free: admin.coreo.io/u/join-project…
Amazing footage of a #mink investigating #watervole borrows (marked by flags), clearly demonstrating how easily a mink can access water voles and predate an entire colony with ease. Footage courtesy of Environment Agency FBG West Dorset.
Is anyone doing #minkcontrol around #Wareham or the Purbecks? Or do you know of anyone who might be? If so, please could you ping me a DM? Thanks!
It's fantastic seeing these rafts going out!
🌟 Our amazing volunteers were busy this week deploying monitoring rafts along the River Thame! 🦦 Excitement is building as we wait for animals will leave their prints in the clay pads within the raft tunnels. 🐾 #WildlifeMonitoring #RiverThame #VolunteerHeroes
We now have 300 #mink rafts registered on the MinkMapp app, with 66 mink having been dispatched! minkmapp.uk
This week our Advisory and Research teams held a very well attended #mink control training day, covering the research and development behind the #GWCT mink raft, best practice, humane dispatch and the #technology now available to assist control.
This, I want. It's what you humans have isn't it? When other humans do wrong to you! Another way to look at it! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
Major polluters could be jailed for 20 years under new Ecocide Bill in Scotland‼️ Anyone fancy introducing ecocide laws in Westminster? Might stem the flow of 💩⁉️ @GreenJennyJones @SteveReedMP @timfarron @carolvorders @paulpowlesland @Feargal_Sharkey bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…
Thanks @JCaseNature We've had lots of people sign up to minkmapp.uk recently, but please keep adding your rafts! Working together is the only way we can efficiently control (eradicate...?) #mink using a strategic approach and it really is working!
Mink control most certainly needs a joined up approach... ...and the @MappMink are promoting just that!
We're now at that time of year when American mink are very active and juveniles are dispersing. Many locations in our trap network have had increased captures over the past few weeks and we're expecting more. This is a really important time to be monitoring and trapping.

We're always looking for folk to help with mink control - pretty much anywhere north of Perth. We also need people in specific areas when mink are known to us. This time it's Methven nr Perth where we've had a number of mink sightings. Can you help? @nature_scot @NatureScot_NE
We've had a flurry of mink sightings in the Methven area and are looking for suitable locations to deploy mink rafts/traps. If you have seen mink in Methven or elsewhere in Tayside and are interested in getting involved with our efforts to catch them please get in touch! - Mark
Beautiful footage, clearly demonstrating the size of the invasive American #mink alongside a grey squirrel and red fox
A young fox checking out the fallen hollow tree followed by squirrel & mink. Some may say 3 pest species. Wrong! The squirrel & mink are not native species whilst the fox most certainly is and & a vital part of our natural eco system. 🦊🦊🦊🦊

Meet Bonnie - the mink detection dog! Bonnie, Mirella (Bonnie's owner and SISI Project Officer) and volunteer Jon were joined by STV's @HaleyBouma to chat about our American mink control work and Bonnie's special talents at sniffing out these invasive predators.
Episode 9 - Habitat Introducing our brand new educational video series, showcasing everything that you need to know about water voles and their predators. Our educational series will also be used during our local school engagement programme. #conservation #watervole #habitat
Unfortunately this is a mink, rather than an otter. Demonstrates the need for constant vigilance even where #mink control is ongoing - there are #watervoles on some parts of the Thames in #Oxford , but for how much longer?
Want to better understand American #mink and the impact they have on British fauna? Check this out ⬇️⬇️

This female #mink will be working hard to feed her two kits, so woe betide any #watervoles in the vicinity.
If you want #watervoles in a local landscape like this ⏬ #mink control is imperative! Whether it's to protect extant voles, or for a #reintroduction, get your mink rafts in order! Together we can eradicate mink, thereby protecting native WV long-term. minkmapp.uk
🐀 Our second water vole release went swimmingly! Thanks to @KernowConserva1 for releasing 84 water voles at Trelusback farm with us last week! Photos: Rob Dymott (underwater shot), Ali Hales @CornishParadise
This ⬇️⬇️ is why we need bigger, more joined up #mink control. It really does work, and native fauna including water voles can come back from the brink!
1st local Water Vole record for close to 2 decades on a local pool. We spoke to one of the guys charged with trap maintenance (some give him a notification to his phone), big numbers of Mink dispatched, it appears to be working
