🐻 There’s a story behind every specimen in the collection. Mammalogy Collections Manager Dr. Shannen Robson recently told the glitzy (and gruesome) story of how one special mammal specimen ended up in #NHMLA care. 𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚 is that story: go.nhm.org/piccolo

Physical Geography
Mammalogy (which included a winter field component in the middle of nowhere)
Invertebrate biology
Behavioural Ecology

Dingoes are not domestic dogs – new evidence shows these native canines are on their own evolutionary path
New research suggests dingoes are distinct enough to have their own scientific name. If this is accepted, it will have far-reaching consequences

Hey #herpetologists & other #biologists that find critters at night, any recommendations on #headlamp brand and model? For years I've used the Black Diamond ICON, but the elastic band is finally starting to become weak. Frog pic for attention. #herpetology #mammalogy #entomology

Our #3Dprinted 1/4 scale #humpback whale skeleton is finally complete and hung up in our teaching classroom! My #mammalogy students printed the individual bones, and the #MarineMammalogy class painted and articulated the #skeleton with Dr. Jim Dines! It's about 11 feet long and looks amazing!
