I can access the pdf files from the newest issue no problem (or the open-access ones at least). Haven't tried any earlier issues though.
Page might have been down temporarily while they updated the submission system? (Just seeing this now, haven't logged in in a while...). Newest issue online is from last September too, which is strange as there should have been a December one?

Me! Winnipeg-based wildlife biologist and ecotourism guide.
It was such a pleasure to get out in the field for this story, particularly working with Gavin and seeing the gorgeous Blackfoot territory. His photos are spectacular, go see them.
That's a great read, with incredible photography. Awesome stuff!
What's the most dangerous season for
#caribou
? According to a new study of an Alaskan herd, that season has shifted from early summer to winter/early spring. New in our news section, www.northerncaribou.ca/news
If you are a Canadian ornithologist (or adjacent) and care about museum collections in Canada, I'm looking for a Canadian partner for a small project (nice honours/museum studies project, too!) #ornithology
@stephenresearch.bsky.social Know anyone working on ornithology collections?
Does #Tidal allow you to do a year-end summary like Spotify does? Kind of a moot point for me anyway, I use Tidal to check out new albums - 3 or 400 this year, across all genres. My summary would look like 5 different people share my account, lol.
They should have probably finished that before changing the trapping regs...
FORT SEVERN, Ont. - Police in a northern Ontario First Nation say a man who jumped onto a polar bear that lunged at his wife early this morning has been seriously injured but is expected to recover.
Good stuff! I'm working on compiling wolf harvests now but hope to pivot to wolverines after. Historic (1800s) fur return data from BC to Quebec.
Somewhere, haha. The 1987 one Novak edited, right? I have it on a CD I think, and some chapters as print or pdf. There's a new book on furbearer mgmt now too, in progress and I think it will be entirely open-access.
Awesome, thanks!
Tons of #caribou data too. A difficulty with that data would be sorting herds. The post journals could help there, because the ledgers just report numbers. Likely lots of Qamanirjuaq animals in the mix, some Pen Islands, etc.
Currently putting together #wolf data for @ryankbrook.bsky.social and would like to do the same for #wolverine.
Hey #wildlife pals! Anyone working on large-scale (eg Canada) #wolverine abundance and distribution? Or interested in doing so? I could compile a bunch of 1800s #furtrade records for a historical perspective. #historicalecology

At this point it’s been said in a hundred different ways, so I think people are being intentional about not getting it.
"Hunting" in these facilities is big business in AB and SK.
Very cool research paper on newspaper archives as a tool for historical ecology research. Online archives have been huge in some work by a colleague on historic whaling in the Cdn Arctic.
Join me in welcoming to Bluesky UBC's Biodiversity Research Centre (@ubcbiodiversity.bsky.social)! Scientists here investigate the #ecology, #evolution, and #conservation of biological #diversity through research at all levels, from genes to ecosystems through to interactions with society.
Shocking as it sounds, it’s quite possible people prefer the civility and community of Bluesky over being force fed some cooked up algorithm concocted by a bombastic billionaire to amplify trolls, bots, and miscreants. Imagine that!
Libraries are an investment. Not an expense

Looks like I never did an intro post on here...
I'm a Cdn #wildlife #biologist and #ecologist, working mainly on #Arctic marine mammals, and a PT #ecotourism guide - #polarbears and #belugawhales in #Churchill. Looking forward to lots of good #scicomm here!
