#SciArtSeptember 6 - Prairie
The greatest beasts are gone, but maybe the land still remembers.
Another version of the idea of ghosts of lost beasts, this time the spirit of a mammoth walking with a bison somewhere in the fragments of the American prairie that still exist.

dazzling megafaunal community with many species actually still pending description. From Palaeoloxodon, to various giraffes to a myriad of living and extinct antelopes, Koobi Fora was home to many of Africa's classics!
As this size chart by @gnath.bsky.social reveals...
Result from the Koobi Fora #paleostream! This region on the east side of modern day Lake Turkana in Kenya is a treasure trove for fossils of the early Pleistocene and is most famous for many early human remains, with up to 6 species present throughout the layers...

πFish fossils include those of acanthodians, chondrichthyans (among them Orthacanthus, the top predator in the ecosystem) and bony fish, as well as tracks and coprolites, while tetrapods are represented by the temnospondyl Iberospondylus (adapted for brackish water or even the sea) and ichnofossils

Imagine spending your life building these networks and funding mechanisms and just seeing all that wiped out in, what, 14 months?
I'll be thinking about that for a long time. Build sustainable programs folks. No idea how....
Met someone who spent their career building programs to support underrepresented scientists at all career stages. We asked what he wished he knew earlier. He said he wished he knew how to make these programs sustainable, so that his life work didn't crumble with a change in leadership.

A scene depicting the Patagonian scrubland in the early morning, dotted with araucarias and framed by foggy mountains in the background. A pair of Macrauchenia, four guanacos and a patagonian mara are seen among the grass. A Megatherium walks by further away and a crested caracara flies over the scene.

"[Mace] has made herself a national name via proud displays of hatred on Capitol Hill." - Alex Galbraith

Nancy Mace, une élue républicaine plus que problématique, a tweeté ce matin qu'elle adressait ses prières et pensées aux deux élues musulmanes démocrates Rashida Tlaib et Ilhan Omar pour le décès de Khamenei.
Ce niveau abyssal de connerie mon dieu.
