My comic "The Second Extinction of the Pyrenean Ibex" (part of @ironcircuscomix's Failure to Launch anthology) features *134* species of animals, mostly Holocene extinctions.
I wanted to do a thread about some of the research that went into these depictions! 🧵👇
‘We dubbed it #Toadzilla’: giant cane toad believed to be the largest of its species (2.7kg) found in #Australia….they were introduced in 1935 to control the cane beetle and have caused local extinctions of some of their predators. #CaneToad https://t.co/9Ep8PmwNWA

No matter if you like Warhammer or not, read this book
It's a story about two immortal dipshits who are forced to work with each other for millenia and hate each other so much they may or may not have caused multiple mass extinctions just to...
she's a 10 but she causes mass extinctions when she doesn't get her way
Join @ThirdPod for their next 6-part miniseries on Extinctions as we learn about the demise of the dinosaurs, what makes a comet “extinct,” the Cambrian and Triassic period, volcanoes, & the (planned) fiery end of the International Space Station! https://t.co/E1m28wESlA #SciComm
When you hear the word “extinction,” what comes to mind? Dinosaurs? Asteroids? Volcanoes?
How about the International Space Station?
@ThirdPod is talking #extinctions in their next series - check out a preview! https://t.co/Kmi9ZzHMGI #SciComm #Podcast (art by @DoodlebugKRY)

We face unprecedented rates of #climatechange and #extinction. The humble foram is one of the most abundant micro #fossils in the world, and survivor of multiple mass extinctions. They whisper stories of climate change and environments through #deeptime. #EarthDay #FossilFriday
PITCH US! We're looking for freelance producers to help put together a six-part mini-series on extinctions. Check out the posting and come work with us! https://t.co/3reGFC40Y5 #SciComm #SciCommJob #SciCommJobs #SciWri
@kalmakoffee The cape can be played with more, but it's not really necessary but I don't think you have to just remove it either, If she's an agile character maybe you can give her some ribbon like extinctions like on Noel's design from BB, something that can show motions really well
I find it kinda unfair how some kingdoms have annoyances like this as their prophecies, while others have literal diseases and extinctions plaguing their people. Hopefully Kappa can somehow help them all nonetheless...
How long have humans had the ability to reshape ecosystems? Our project -recently funded by @NSF - aims to find out! We are testing the hypothesis that carnivory by Homo erectus caused Pleistocene mammal extinctions (1/4) [Photo cred: Karen Carr Studios/@HumanOrigins]
@shrineofnamira umm did u know that dinosaurs used to be so dope until mass extinctions happen, picture unrelated
The compromise
Survival is often uncomfortable...
Art by Francisco Badilla 'dino and guns' a short history of extinctions...
Someday, I dream of commissioning a sketch of a giant tardigrade sitting next to me in lab, with an arm or two over my shoulders. The tardigrade is my Patronus of getting through stress. They survived 5 global level extinctions, after all. #StressPrescription #TardiDoc
