What's better than a #roundfrog? #babyroundfrogs! Lots of #frogs out and about in #NSW, many likely the result of the heavy February rains throughout much of the state. #WildOz

“It’s a particular grief, to lose forever what connects you to a place...we watch how the mistreatment and neglect of our land and waters for generations, & the...foolishness of coal-obsessed climate change denialists turn everything & everyone to ash” bit.ly/36xHHcM

Horrifying photos taken from Evan's Lookout & Govett's Leap in the Blue Mountains - taken by Nina Lipscombe. I've already taken a box of valuables from our home up in the mountains. These photos are just so frightening. #australiaburns #bluemountainsfires

I used to believe all the scientists in the world when they said climate change was real, but recently a guy on Twitter with the handle Davo075677643 or whatever with a fish as his profile pic recently told me climate always changes so I guess there really are two sides to this.

How do you translocate the critically endangered #leadbeaters possum? @ArabellaEyre identified a future release site after considering site history and habitat suitability, and summed it up with "doing nothing will lead to #extinction" - hear hear! 🐭 @ZoosVictoria #ESAus19 – at Launceston, Tasmania

Working on Country is about more than engaging Traditional Owners to help you with field work. Take time to yarn, for two way knowledge transfer, ask what the community need & feed back results #ESAus19 #fieldwork #oncountry #engagement #STEMOriginals theconversation.com/indigeno…
