Why don't you want to work for consultancies? There are lots of environmental consultancies that do great conservation work, often filling in capacity gaps for overworked government and ENGO offices. Lots of small, local consultancies out there too if your concern is with getting lost in Corporate.
They are Ranitomeya varabillis southern!
I know there are *so* many of you evolution and ecology fiends out there who'd be perfect!! "The Pokémon Company is specifically looking for those with research experience in animal and plant ecology, with Japanese and English language skills on top." (IGN) nordic.ign.com/pokemon-poko... #SciComm 🧪
what species did you raise?
yeah, it's one thing to read the stats, and another to see it happen live, though!
i feed this guy springtails, and am kind of just hoping he eats bc i havent seen him since he left the water yesterday lol
hes got his blue jeans on
thanks! the entire ranitomeya genus has so many stunning frogs.
Ranitomeya varabilis southern! They are a species of thumbnail dart frog.
it left the water yesterday! and now the second oldest tad has taken its place in the mini cup and is rapidly reabsorbing its tail
yeah a fresh frog!! incredibly freshly made
the oldest of the tadpoles is now a little frog! and boy do i mean little!!! he's smaller now than when he was a tadpole!
NewJeans in her favourite spot, ass out, eyes closed, just vibing (it's right under the heat lamp)
requiem for vanished birdsong
yeah theyre so bright now!
Oldest tadpole
Youngest tadpole
All three tads have front legs now! Here's pics of the oldest and youngest tads from today. The oldest tad is visibly smaller, and its tail is about 40% of the size of the youngest one, as it has not eaten for about 2 weeks now while it reabsorbs its tail, and changes its mouth type

Day 38/100: Four-eyed Fish … found mostly in South America, they have eyes raised above the top of the head and divided into two different parts so that they can see above and below the water surface at the same time

Thank you! i hope you make a shrimp tank of your own too!
give in. here's mine!
gorgeous! our potted plants only exist in the living room so that has constrained how many we can have. this was an intentional constraint, but i still managed to accumulate 45+ pots of plants lol. whoopsies.
we had some leftover bean dip from a party so we did that + some ground beef + some pickled onion. a very back of the fridge taco
i also had tacos today! a very taco sunday
this is both pete and i anytime one of us parallel parks on the first try haha
oh yeah, theres always yellowed and dead leaves to clean up, plants that are declining and could use a repot, plants that could be split, etc etc. my partner had to stop me because i probably could have kept going for another 2 hours haha. what plants do you have these days?
I started a few plant chores while my partner was at the dentist just for "an hour or so." It's been 3 hours and im still fluttering around finding more plants to clean up lol
ive always wanted to keep some nothobranchius sp. killifish! yours are gorgeous
you should! i didnt start with any orange shrimp but now i have one thats super bright orange. it was cool. it definitely keeps my attention more than single colour shrimp tanks.
