Quite rare to find an oceanic manta (Mobula birostris) with the drone so I was very excited to film this one barrel-roll and lunge feeding! @FishLab_MQ @MarineMegafauna @MQ_Marine @PapuaExplorers #naturelovers #nature #SharkScience

Why do we treat sharks any differently from charismatic mammals? We need to check our moral compasses, well said @catarina_vp! @CulumBrown @seamuseum_ #oceantalks

PhD OPPORTUNITY still open: Laterality and personality in rainbowfish, @Macquarie_Uni @FishLab_MQ goo.gl/tRP4rT
Ultimate photobomb⁣. Scrolling over my fieldsites in #GoogleEarth and found a photobombing smooth stingray. Turns out they've been doing this for 10 years 😂⁣

Ever wondered if being a 'lefty' or a 'righty' makes you a better fighter or lover? Our latest paper in Proceedings B @RSocPublishing shows that in the world of cuttlefish, left- & right-biases make all the difference! doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2018.25… @MBLScience @camouGuy

How dumping fish scraps is putting stingrays at risk: “It might seem harmless, but feeding wildlife, whether on purpose or not, can change animals’ behaviour, disrupt the food chain, and cause negative health impacts,” says lead author of the study @MQBiology's @MotherOfRays

My new (and first 🤙) paper is out this week on how the dumping of fish waste is putting the world's biggest marine stingrays at risk. Check it out: int-res.com/abstracts/meps/v…

Introducing our newest installation recently deployed off Bendalong, NSW to support the work of 3 PhD research projects running through @UOW, @nswdpi and @MQBiology. The 10 receivers will be complementing nicely the other @IMOS_AUS receiver installations along the NSW coastline.
