Cocaine salmon with Marcus Michelangeli

Marcus Michelangeli is a lecturer at Griffith University, leading the Wildlife Behaviour & Ecotoxicology research group, focusing on how wildlife adapt to rapid environmental change, particularly in response to emerging threats from synthetic and psychoactive chemical contaminants. In this chat, we discuss recent research by Marcus and collaborators on the impact of cocaine on salmon behaviour.
