Happy #SquirrelAppreciationDay!🐿️
My favorite squirrels are ground squirrels because they hibernate!💤
I study the relationship between hibernating squirrels and their gut #microbes to understand how hibernation can be used to benefit humans-- like hibernating astronauts!🚀
Reading up about hibernating bat microbiomes (which happens to be extra relevant given #COVID19), and all I can think of is Myotismon from Digimon
