Helloooo Bluesky! I'm Lameace Hussain, a wildlife bio and human dimensions researcher!
As part of my dissertation I'm looking at harassment and discrimination across Ecology, natural resource, and Conservation disciplines. Tell us about your experience through our survey using the QR code below.
One of my best mates is hiring, and I would highly recommend working for her! This is an ethical environmental consulting company in the beautiful region of Cape York Peninsula, specifically Weipa. Pic of our #OzReptileAcademy snake training she gifted her staff. Job: nrmjobs.com.au/jobs/2025/20...
Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
Black and white photo of museum diorama with two adult cheetahs and five kittens on a sandy base. There is no cyclorama backdrop.
Who shot the cheetah kittens? I remember having this thought fifteen years ago when visiting the Field Museum. I understood the rationale for taking specimens for science, but still—look at those little faces. Who could make specimens of them?
Turns out there's an answer. (CW: animal death) 🧵🧪

Thank you very much 🙌
I'd love to!
OpenAI doesn't report a single number for its climate impacts - not anywhere, in any way, shape or form.
It sounds kind of obvious but the fact that a company with such incredible electricity hunger isn't disclosing basic information about its energy consumption and associated emissions is v bad..

Really, @tanyaplibersekmp.bsky.social, are you really, really sure?
In the Italian translation, Snape is actually Severus Piton. You nailed the name.
Finally found wild frill-necked lizards (Chlamydosaurus kingii) today after two years in Australia. So stoked!
If you are writing a paper about them, please let the title be "you wanna be Americano"
I would be honored to be in there too, awesome work!
It's finally done! This starter pack now has 150 herpetologists and herpetology enthusiast.

Sulphur-crested Cockatoo emerging from its treasured, thermally perfect nest hollow that literally took 100s of years to form. A reminder to fight the bull-dozing of large, old-growth trees. Did you know that 300–400 species (10–31% of all vertebrates) in Australia need hollows to survive?? #WildOz
We saw one such nest today on Mt. Coot-tha, stood down below as a cockatoo entered it. I immediately thought of you
Incredible
