They look fantastic <3

A Colorado biologist led federal efforts to save endangered black-footed ferrets. Trump fired her last month Tina Jackson fears federal job cuts and funding freezes could imperil work to save the species from the brink of extinction.

NEW: Black-footed ferrets were saved by a federal breeding program centered around Colorado.

It was led by Tina Jackson — a USFWS biologist fired by DOGE last month. She's now worried staff and funding cuts could drag the species back to the brink of extinction.

Agreed! I'm used to seeing USFWS so took me a minute and I'm familiar with it. Fish and Wildlife isn't too long to put in

Luna is a very common name so if you don't mind running into more of them go for it. We thought about anime/ movies and tv we liked and our pup is Kida (the princess of Atlantis from that Disney movie you've either seen or never heard of)

Loved it! Thanks so much for your insight. Great community in the chat too

Could do more like a pocket, envelope or pouch but it would make the packets less visible. Would have to encourage opening it

I strongly suggest that if you dislike this feature, you write a quick ticket saying so. Annoy the fuck out of them.

A comment left strongly opposing the changes proposed to NEPA. It reads 'This does not just protect the environment but protects people, their health and their right to have public input on development this can affect them in real and dangerous ways. We are not separate from the environment but a part of it and disregarding this will cause deaths and irreparable harm

They're going after NEPA which directly protects not just the environment but also the health and welfare of people and their right to have a voice in projects that will impact them. You are a part of the environment. This will harm you. Go comment! www.regulations.gov/document/CEQ...

My flu/covid symptom thing turned into pneumonia so keep an eye on any shortness of breath. Oxygen levels were all normal but the just in case x-ray caught it

A US mailbox with the text Free seed library on it decorated with wildflowers native to Colorado and an American goldfinch

Love it. I haven't found the activation energy to make a stand for mine and put it out yet but planning to fill with native seeds. Maybe I'll make a library to go next to it for other sciencey sharing <3

I used to joke that “I’m not a mad scientist, I’m just a disappointed scientist.”

I’m mad now.

This is my masters thesis about shorebirds, wildlife genetics and migratory behavior. Using the list of flagged words from the NSF posted by @darbysaxbe.bsky.social 153 words would be flagged. How many words in your work would be flagged?

Super great that one of the major funding bodies that supports my physics research is now officially in opposition to me being the one to do it.
