Claudia Bieber @c-bieber.bsky.social was invited to a panel discussion at the 13th Climate & Environment Film Festival in Baden. After the screening of „Nuisance Bear“ she spoke with Klaus Hackländer from @bokuvienna.bsky.social and the filmmaker Richard Ladkani, moderated by Wolfgang Pfefferkorn.
The KLIVV was part of Open House Vienna and welcomed almost 600 people this past sunny Sunday at the Wilhelminenberg. We were blown away by your interest and questions and enjoyed showing you around the premises! 🚶♀️😊
📢New papers! 📢 When immobilising large wild animals, we aim to combine reliable effectiveness with the greatest possible safety for the animal. Our research helps to improve our understanding of the reactions to potent substances used and to advance the field of wildlife medicine. shorturl.at/FJOI5
What can we learn from nature and the millions of years of evolution in wild animals to improve medical care in the future? Our colleague, Dr. Johanna Painer-Gigler, presented at the largest European Congress on Internal Medicine in Small Animals which can now be accessed online: shorturl.at/5odOn
We are proud to announce that Friederike Pohlin was awarded the inaugural William R. Lance Award.👏 This recognizes her scientific excellence and innovative contributions to the safe, humane immobilization and anesthesia of wildlife, as well as her commitment to international collaboration.🥳
What a great session at #SEB2026 in Florence! Many thanks to all our speakers for their inspiring presentations and discussions, and to the @SEBiology for supporting our session. It was a great opportunity to exchange ideas on how organisms respond to environmental change🌍
