ππΌ My first paper in #BioScience!
Also my first time leading a paper with so many co-authors (35 authors across 30+ institutions).
So glad to work with these wonderful colleagues and bring attention to Zoo-Musuem Collabs πππ©π»βπ«π
@sinlanpoo, @S_M_Whitfield, @cylon_gecko, @iDigGilNelson, @AlexShepack, @AllyBogi & others examine zoos & museums and synthesize the benefits & challenges of cross-institutional exchanges & propose actions to increase the dialog between both. #BioScience

Great to see this crucial ecosystem highlighted by @LeoDiCaprio! While there is still huge work to be done, mangroves are increasingly one of the worldβs rare conservation success stories
Mangroves are the only trees in the world that can grow in saltwater, and they are rockstars in the fight against #ClimateChange. Celebrate the @unep Decade on Ecosystem Restoration with @rewild & @BNTBahamas.
