I'm so proud of this project. Its an interesting story (involving a plucky masters student, wasted resources and how lack of follow up means valuable lessons in conservation are lost). Thread......

❌ Learning from failure: an EU-funded project tried to eradicate #invasive red swamp #crayfish by mechanically excavating stream beds. Unfortunately, it failed but lessons can be learnt from this failure – find out more: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… @juliapgjones @BangorSNS

What a great day! 🥳 Thank you very much to all the attendees. Many thanks to all the speakers for the communications too. It is not easy to bring about big changes, but we can make small changes in many places, to improve the management of #IAS on a large scale. #IASInEurope

Last week I was lucky to see one of the rarest butterflies in the world, the Piedmont Anomalous Blue (Polyommatus humedasae) near Cogne in Italy. Days before I arrived a huge fire occurred just metres away from the colony, demonstrating how precarious this species' situation is.
