Morphometric Relationships of Six Vulnerable Sharks from the Southern Coast of India
This paper is so freakin' cool. The authors use a combination of comparative anatomy, the fossil record, phylogenetic methods, and morphometric analysis to figure out how (and when) seals evolved "amphibious hearing" that uniquely enable them to effectively hear in both air & underwater
Seals have a superpower: they are the only mammals with amphibious hearing! They hear well both in-air and underwater.

Some 🧪 thoughts:
💀 the skull shows some differences to the adult skull shape (especially in the zygomatic region).
Did Homotherium show ontogenetic allometry in its skull?
I can't wait to see geometric morphometric analysis!

Had we continued to work with Albert & co, we would have made geometric morphometric comparisons with adult Homotherium & Smilodon skulls to supplement species ID, and compared ontogenetic trajectories with living cats.
