This article has been widely discredited. The author of the paper says they are misrepresenting the research.

I'm on mobile or I'd track down more links, but it was pretty easy for me to find several articles about how this is bad science reporting.

What research? They link to their "citizen science" website. Their website links to itself and a pre-print article that is unlikely to even pass cursory inspection by a journal referee. This is blog garbage.

Flagged.
