🦭 Seal of approval!

Between 2022-23, eight adult female sea lions in South Australia were tracked using animal-borne video, GPS, time-depth and accelerometer/magnetometer methods.

The resulting dataset contains >7,000 records and provides a window into mapping critical habitat of this species!

The dataset was mobilized to GBIF by #SARDI with the support of CSIRO and @obis as part of the PhD project led by Nathan Angelakis.

So far, eight females from two #seal colonies have filmed almost 90 hours of footage across more than 500km, helping #scientists to #map 5,000 sq km of #habitat. The #SeaLions have mapped rocky reefs and seagrass meadows along the continental shelf, and shown humans the places that are important to them.

With that information, #conservationists will have much clearer ideas on how to protect the country’s only endemic seal.

Goldsworthy, of the South #Australian #Research and Development Institute #SARDI, has been studying the fast-disappearing #MarineMammal for 25 years. But he says the cameras are a gamechanger.

“Information has been so elusive, because they’re feeding at the bottom of the sea,” he said. “Now we get this amazing, exquisite detail. They’re giving us a window into their world that we haven’t had before.

“Just like humans know our streets, the sea lions know the sea bed in intimate detail for hundreds of kilometres and they build up this knowledge over time. They have a mental map of their environment and they are leading you to places of profound significance for them.”

La strumentalizzazione ideologica dei genocidi e il negazionismo liberale

Seguo con grande piacere questo canale, ma mi trovo purtroppo in polemica sempre sullo stesso tema: quando si parla di colonialismo, quello sui sardi sparisce dai discorsi, esattamente nello stesso modo in cui viene accusato il sistema occidentale liberale di tacere su #genocidi ed #assimilazioneculturale.

Quando si tratta di assimilazione culturale dei #sardi, anche a sinistra c'è #negazionismo.

#Sardi oh, mi raccomando! 🧐
