Dr Elena Nalon

The third and final day of the @ufaw.bsky.social International Animal Welfare Conference #UFAW2025 is just about to begin. Fascinating presentations on the programme. Looking forward to another day of learning and networking!

Gîte à chauves-souris Beaumaris Maxi Le gîte pour chauves-souris Beaumaris est entièrement fabriqué en matériau WoodStone®. L’utilisation de ce béton de bois pour sa fabrication le rend très durable. Deux tailles sont disponibles.

Le collectif d’habitants « Autour de Marguerite » organise une collecte de fonds afin d’installer des gîtes pour les chauves-souris dans l’espace public ainsi que chez des particuliers.

The residents' collective “Autour de Marguerite” is organising a fundraiser to install bat shelters in public spaces and at private homes. Despite their sometimes negative reputation, bats are harmless and play a vital ecological role by consuming large numbers of insects such as mosquitoes.

It may be shocking to hear, but #Veterinarians are not experts in #AnimalWelfare without further education.

We would be even more excited if the Conference would also focus on *food* and the demand side, not just the agri-food sector - reflecting a true #FoodSystems approach ... 🤗

...and if it were possible to follow #EUAgriVision on #Bluesky and not just X (but for this, you can count on us! 😉)

I still have not felt encroachment on my journalism on the news side, but if Bezos tries interfering with the news side I will be quitting immediately and letting you know
