A longer version of the Tufts announcement about the abduction of an international graduate student by federal authorities, circulating on Twitter and Reddit.

I would have gone with Tyrannidae, Trochilidae, Thraupidae/Furnariidae/Muscicapidae, but reading through the comments I think Columbidae might beat one of the last three...

Thank you!

That is great, thanks! Could I be added?

thank you!

Thank you so much for this! Could you add me please?

I made a starter pack for animal behaviour researchers / ethologists! please share and feel free to self-nominate or suggest others to be added as this is very much still a work in progress and not an exhaustive list 🌍🧪😊 #SciSky #BioSky #AnimalBehaviour #AnimalBehavior #Ethology

A common misunderstanding of climate change I see is that "we either hold warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, or we're all doomed."

That threshold matters. But every bit we can do helps. Every ton of CO2 not released helps.

This sucks. Feel your grief. But don't give up, don't stop fighting.

Always 💖

Don't make me tap the sign

Not my topic, but this study in Italy concluded that there are several ways to decrease the conflict (and lethal control is not one of them): www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

That is so nice! Thank you @ecomargo.bsky.social!

This work was made possibly by the amazing collaboration of
Enrico Mancin, Shogo Tsuruta, Roberto Mantovani, Ivana Schoepf and especially Cristina Sartori! (5/5)

We also discovered that the trends of change in the estimated breeding values of social dominance, udder health and muscle mass are consistent with selection for social dominance in the population (4/5)

We used bivariate animal models to see genetic correlation between soc dominance and fitness, morphology traits. Winning agonistic interactions is genetically correlated with more developed frontal muscle mass, lower fertility and milk production, and poorer udder health (3/5)

Aosta cows are selected for their ability to win agonistic interactions (the culturally significant Batailles des Reines). Using this dataset, we investigated the quant genetics of social dominance, a trait with an indirect genetic component (direct and indirect genetic effects).

First post on the app! Our study on the genetic correlations of social dominance is out at GSE! Selection for social dominance is affecting genetically correlated traits in Aosta cows #indirectgeneticeffects #IGE #genetics #socialbehaviour #evolution #animalmodel #firstpost t.co/LQzyXXYXEF (1/5)
