- Attending the premiere of #Ocean with Sir David Attenborough, King Charles III, and the production team was surreal. It is a powerful wake-up call on how we treat the ocean and calls for concerted conservation efforts and sustainable fishing practices. A must-see film! #SirDavidAttenborough
- Baby sea turtles (about the size of your phone) were tracked using satellites and revealed that they don't just float about in the open water but actively swim towards or away from shallower areas. And they really like hanging out in the Gulf of Mexico. Great work @katrinaphillips.bsky.social! 🌍🦤🧪🦑

- Keen-eyed researchers discovered the first African species of pygmy #seahorse (only 2cm!) in the #iSimangaliso MPA. This incredible coastal wetland is also home to one of the region's largest turtle nesting sites, sharks, hippos, crocs, & much more. Species description here: doi.org/10.3897/zook...

- “What the fuck do we have to do to get through to people how bad this really is?” As sea surface temperatures break all records and another global coral bleaching event is unfolding, 77% (n = 293) of climate scientists surveyed expect a global average temperature rise of at least 2.5 C. 🦑 🧪 🦤 🌍
