The Platypus.
It’s cool cause it’s freaking weird, it’s like a reptile-like mammal:
- venomous spurs
- lays eggs
- a lower body temperature than other placental mammals https://t.co/5RGjAvBZOs

This is a fun paper, they used synchrotron microtomography (essentially an X-ray powered by a synchrotron) to scan a piece of Triassic dino coprolite (poop) to 3D image all the beetles hanging out inside. https://t.co/2ti8IYipF2

@RebeccaRHelm Ugh, I saw that and that was horrible what they attributed to you, also saw that people believed your own videos were stolen.

Can we appreciate how @Prehistorica_CM snuck a lobopod (onychophoran) into the background of my commissioned soldier fly larvae to menace it?

My second co-authored paper of the year came out! What started with me showing my buddy a cool larvae in Dominican amber has snowballed into a paper on soldier fly larvae in deep time. Includes commissioned art by @Prehistorica_CM https://t.co/wWCsr0AmMY

And now some gem carvings by Dreher Carvings. Topaz snail, Topaz cicada, Ruby snake (@MaureenBug Hank tribute!), and Heliodor Mouse

Geologists and other people who went to training field camps: where was your field camp and what did you do?

I'll start. Mine was YBRA (Yellowstone Bighorn Research Association) near Red Lodge and we did field geology in Elk Basin, Elk Gulch, the Beartooths, etc, 2003.

OMG, I just went to an open house with an Amazonite pegmantite counter! Owner said it cost $10,000 for the slab.

@MonCherCopain @DSAArchaeology Ok, maybe we can make this work if... we add cats! Archaeo-cats! You get to do real science while the cats hook the audience! Win win
