Thursday's topic: Wolves (and lynx) in Europe.
Terrors of the forest? Or necessary keystone species?
As with everything in ecology, nothing is simple! Today I (@AdamFSmith) will look at some myths, science, and interesting facts about these species. Claws out, let's go! 🐺

Firstly, this is my immediate research area. Over the last 3 years I have been involved in numerous studies involving wolves and lynx, however the "speed of science" means few are published right now!
It is extremely complex, so over Twitter you'll have to bare with me!

Europe's legal protection and softening public opinion has successfully seen population and range rebounds for these species.
Both are listed as protected under the EU Habitat's Directive and cannot be hunted in EU countries! 🇪🇺

A few months ago, I lost quite a few friends over my contention that tracking collars were being abused to the detriment of #YellowstoneParkWolves. People called me a liar when I said the telemetry was being leaked, adding to the issue of habituated wolves.
Now, @outsidemagazine has outed the Wolf Project for doing exactly what I said. This is an abuse of wildlife. It has made these most visible wolves on earth vulnerable to the killers waiting outside an invisible boundary beyond the park. All animal lovers should be outraged!
Compounding this issue, once one group sets up on the wolves, everyone in the park knows & soon dozens more people have become complicit in making these #wolves easy for the killers to execute. It's an environmental crime being fomented by people that claim to love wolves.

Excited to share our story about an ancestral mutation in a #lncrna antisense of IGF1, that appeared over 50,000 years ago in #wolves, and that impacts modern #dogs and wild canids body size. It's out in @CurrentBiology. cell.com/current-biolog…

My most memorable memory from my time in the Canadian High Arctic was the year the arctic wolf pups were hanging out near the end of the airstrip. Folks at the Eureka station would often go see if they were around and visit them when possible. One evening I went out on my own.
As I approached I thought the pups may have been gone since I didn't see them out and about. But then I noticed the sleeping babysitter wolf off in the distance.
And sure enough, the pups were there. Just laying around on the tundra.

I have way more to type here than Twitter can fit so please do listen to the pod tomorrow, but the quick version is that Cole Anthony makes Orlando quite a bit better.

Various injuries and just the general hot and cold spells of the season have moved Franz Wagner back into a startable position of late, though we also know a cooldown drops him back into that 160 range. Feel free to stream while he's hot if you can catch the right wave.

Bamba returns! But we weren't worried there, really. The bigger news is Jalen Suggs broke a thumb and that changes things here with Cole Anthony still out.

Oh, the universe says I'm supposed to tag these threads with #FantasyBasketball so we'll just do that here and see how it goes.
The wife has some patient notes to write, so I suppose I can carve out some time for this JUMBO STYLE TWEETSTORM.
Let's see if I can make it through to the end in one piece. It was a behemoth.
RTs/Likes always appreciated!

Look at big JaVale. Hah! I have a soft spot for him, and honestly he hasn't been that bad lately. He's a dynamite fill-in if Ayton misses time again down the road. In the interim, he's more of a 14 or 16 teamer. Still fun, though.

Kevin Love is very much in the streamer discussion but not a games cap level guy. Jarrett Allen's FG% is robust. But overall, no particularly earth-shattering fantasy valuation changes.

LMA played great again and he's absolutely a must-start guy in games cap formats. Harder to deal with on the rest days in h2h but he's been so good lately he probably hangs on even there. Mills is a nice stream with Harris out.

Markkanen and Allen came back from various illnesses and looked great. Fire 'em up! Kevin Love is somehow hanging onto deep league value but his little baby-sized window to play more is gone. As is Ed Davis. Isaac Okoro needs to show me more consistency before I add there.

THREAD: #Ramsdale to #Arsenal
It will be interesting to see how #Ramsdale gets on at #AFC & how his game evolves.
One thing #AFC know they are getting is a quality 1v1 stopper!
My model suggests #Ramsdale’s 1v1 prowess saved #SUFC ~3 goals more than an average #PL GK would’ve!

My paper with @cagrainger and Nick Parker on the effects of #Wolves on deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) is now out in PNAS! We find that wolves reduce the frequency of DVCs by a quarter, generating large economic benefits. Why is this important? /1 @PNASNews dx.doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…
The economic benefits conveyed by predators are often indirect, diffuse, and difficult to measure, whereas the costs of predators are salient and local. We provide a concrete estimate of the benefits of wolves to local communities though their control of deer populations. /2
Deer populations plummeted in the 19th century, but they are now overabundant in many parts of the USA. This overabundance causes damages to crops, forests, and landscaping. It likely also contributes to the spread of diseases like Lyme Disease and Chronic Wasting Disease. /3
Would you like to know how we monitor & study large carnivores without catching or observing them by using #DNA from their poop, hairs, urine etc.?

🚨 TRANSFER ALERT 🚨
What would Braga's João Palhinha bring to Wolves? He's a 1.90m DM who's an aggressive and very good defender, excellent tackler, and dominant in the air at a Premier League standard. His main drawback is his lower skill level on the ball.

João Palhinha's smartermap shows that he had classic central positioning for a DM at Braga, not getting forward too often but still able to generate decent attacking output with his passing from near the midfield line:

If we look for players in the Premier League who've had similar styles to João Palhinha's at Braga, not surprisingly we come up with a couple of the more combative DMs at the top, but then some of the passers as well:
