    As promised, I saw a giant sloth skeleton, and I took a picture for you. This one is at the La Brea Tar Pits and it’s called Harlan’s ground sloth, it gets up to about nine feet long and it’s quite handsome. There…

    This is just an innocuous dwarf-goby appreciation post, reminding you that the genus Eviota has more than a hundred species, none of which grow bigger than a very small pinkie...

    Great talk about how gobies and other cryptobenthics live their crazy fast lives just pumping nutrients up the reef food chain. Plus Chris makes it all sound so mythical when he talks about gobies going out into the blue.

    I like a good frog skeleton, all flat head and big jumpy legs, but I didn’t notice until looking closely at this guy that frogs don’t have any ribs. There are projections from the backbone but they are just spurs,…

    Our bird collection contains 40,000 specimens like these lovely indigo buntings, all snug in their drawers. It’s an impressive collection, particularly since all our bird specimens date from 1962 or later. We had to…

    There are only two types of mammals that lay eggs, echidnas and the platypus, and they both live in Australia (of course). This is the short-beaked echidna, one of only four echidna species, and I’ve been worried…

    The parade of horned mammals at the Gallery of Comparative Anatomy in Paris includes a cow and an elk and there in the background, facing away from us is a giraffe. This is Zarafa, the first giraffe to ever come to…
