In a week starts the 5th ECCB (European Congress of Conservation Biology) in Jyväskylä, Finland. The theme of this year's congress is planetary wellbeing – a concept that captures the wellbeing of people as well as the integrity and sustainability of Earth's ecosystems. I will be presenting a poster entitled Historical baselines of South African megafauna distribution, in which I present preliminary results on the spatio-temporal patterns of range contraction and species diversity loss for large mammal species in post-colonial South Africa. If you want to learn more about the topic and happen to be in Jyväskylä next week, come meet me at the poster session! Or if you don't have plans to go to Finland, you can still contact me by email or on Twitter.
