Check out our new paper and its associated press release, an amazing team led by friend and colleague @OrnithoAle 🙌🏽

This is going to the top of my reading list! So important to amplify voices of those that have been marginalized 🙌🏽. Thank you for this paper 👏🏽 ! And let’s continue diversifying #conservation one voice at a time 🙌🏽🌈🌍
Despite the shape that the world is taking, I'm so excited and proud to see this work published and these voices amplified. Please read and share! @Society4ConBio @ConBiology
