In the Spotlight: WDIN is on Facebook and Twitter!

Find WDIN on Facebook and Twitter!

The Wildlife Disease Information Node recently created a Facebook Page and Twitter account to help make it easier to discover late-breaking wildlife disease information.

Through both resources:

• learn about updates on the WDIN website and Meetings and Events calendar,
• receive notification when new stories are available in the WDIN Digest,
• gain direct access to the latest wildlife disease-related journal publications, and
• link to our Global Wildlife Disease News Map.

Alerts for the most current global wildlife disease map posts are also provided through Twitter.

You are invited to interact with us in a number of ways. Stay connected with your wildlife health community:

• post your favorite wildlife disease-related website, online publication or tool to our discussion board on Facebook,
  
• tweet your own relevant sources and information, and
  
• provide comments and suggestions to wdin@usgs.gov.

Become a fan of our Facebook Page here and follow us on Twitter @NBII_WDIN.
