Research doesn't end with data collection or analysis. Publishing research strengthens the scientific record and enables others to build on existing knowledge. @diogoverissimo.bsky.social explains why publishing is a practical necessity & an ethical responsibility 👉 wildcru.org/news/why-do-...

Our research spans 9 countries across Southeast Asia, where our team works with valued partners to understand tiger ecology, reduce human–tiger conflict, model habitat connectivity and help inform national conservation strategies. Learn more 👉 wildcru.org/species/tige... 1/2 @biology.ox.ac.uk

We believe that the most effective conservation is grounded in evidence. From mitigating human–wildlife conflict to informing global policy & supporting species recovery, our research helps turn knowledge into action for wildlife and the people who share those landscapes.

WildCRU’s 2025 Impact Report is live! From understanding wildlife behaviour and threatened populations to supporting community-led conservation and informing policy, WildCRU's research is helping deliver positive outcomes for people and wildlife drive.google.com/file/d/1UcQP... @biology.ox.ac.uk

Putting people at the centre of wildlife conservation is essential. Researchers and conservationists must understand and respect the rights, needs and circumstances of people living alongside wildlife for effective conservation.

Can oral vaccination help save one of the world's rarest canids? With approximately 500 Ethiopian wolves remaining, rabies transmitted by domestic dogs is one of the greatest threats to their survival. @bethpreston.bsky.social @biology.ox.ac.uk

17 years of camera-trap data from Brazil's Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve reveals the first estimates of survival and recruitment for Amazonian jaguars. Paper led by Raíssa Sepulvida & coauthored by WildCRU’s Gui Costa Alvarenga 👉 besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... 1/3

Large carnivore coexistence in Europe is at a critical point, with the European Commission's downlisting of wolves potentially leading to increased use of lethal control. What do people really think about killing wolves, lynx, and bears? 👉 doi.org/10.1098/rspb... 1/4 @biology.ox.ac.uk

Sophie Lund Rasmussen’s dedication to hedgehog research, conservation & science communication has been recognised through the naming of a new ward at the Parisian wildlife rescue centre 'Le Centre de Sauvegarde de la Faune Sauvage - Erinaceus France' 🦔 @biology.ox.ac.uk @drhedgehog.bsky.social

Congratulations to the new Dr Jennifer Linden! 👏 Jenny assessed potential impacts of climate change on endangered African wild dogs, finding that environmental change could drive widespread but spatially variable declines in the species. Well done from everyone at WildCRU!

We are delighted to be part of an exciting new chapter at Pembroke College, Oxford, made possible through the longstanding generosity of Dr Thomas Kaplan. The new Recanati-Kaplan Minerva Institute will bring together experts to tackle global challenges in conservation and security. 1/2

We welcomed Bryan Leonard (University of Wyoming) to discuss satellite data, migratory corridor conservation & the cost of connectivity in the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem. Bryan shared insights on how property rights, markets & policies shape environmental & economic outcomes. @biology.ox.ac.uk

Daniella Skinner (Mabula Ground Hornbill Project) shared the challenges that the Southern Ground Hornbill faces, leading to a 70% decline in the species' former range in South Africa. Her research also explores the African hornbill trade and contributes to international policy.

Amy Dickman was invited to experience The Lion King to celebrate Disney’s collaboration with the National Geographic Society. Amy later spoke at London Zoo, sharing insights from the field and discussed the importance of protecting wildlife and ecosystems in East Africa for future generations. 1/2
