Students deserve to work and learn in a safe space.

That means when universities find people guilty of sexual harassment and bullying they should NOT be allowed to continue to have access to students.

@ClementYChow @Mammals_Suck @KristiLewton @PaoloViscardi Apologies!

Big bones are often made of many little bones which fuse together to make a structure.

Like our skulls, this is why babies have an un-fused soft spot in their head. A sacrum "butt bone" is the same way, made of many parts. (left pic) human sacra at different stages!

Flight is an amazing evolutionary adaptation, it allows efficient escape foraging & migration. But gliding is very different from powered flight. New studies reveal that it was unlikely that Yi qi was a flier, but rather an “obligate glider” (Dececchi et al. 2020) #2022MMM

First up, Lystrosaurus maccaigi is a non-mammalian Therapsid, which is to say that they belong to the group which hosts the origin of true mammals but they themselves are not directly related to mammals. All non-mammalian Therapsids are extinct. ☠️#2022MMM

Next up, #6 seed Therapsid vs. #11 seed Scansoriopterygid #2022MMM

On that note.. I really just wish to see these critters be.. just be. I have so many questions for them, what's their favorite snack?

They seem so big and gentle. That scale bar is 1 meter by the way. I SAID BIG.

Figure also from Bertozzo et al. 2017, drawing by Marco Auditore.

@paleokrahl How’s it so flippy floppy!? Arnt penguins wings chalk full of bones!?

@MesozoicMuse’s art DEFINES this exhibit. It is literally everywhere and used so beautifully to carry you through the time periods. Also I deeply relate to this lil’Yara Carboniferous muncher❤️

@PettisT82 @soFISHtication @hood_naturalist @jclarkepaleo The reason you got no teeth is because you have only the neurocranium- the top part o the skull.

Fish are rude like that with multipart skulls...

As to species..Im really not sure so i'll tag in @Friedman_Lab

We also figured out that at least in our placoderm sample the osteocytes branch about the same number of times as human osteocytes do!

But this is all preliminary as this is a sample of one.
