Congrats to "Pusa saimensis!" 🇫🇮 🦭

"The Saimaa ringed seal — an endangered mammal native to the Lake Saimaa region in Eastern Finland — has now been officially recognised as a distinct species."

It's also "...Finland’s only endemic mammal — meaning that it exists nowhere else in the world — and it is one of few endemic mammals across Europe."

The Mount Lyell #shrew is back!

In three nights and a few pitfall traps in California these students trapped and photographed four species of shrews including the very poorly known Mount Lyell shrew. Good thing their #mammalogy class included #fieldwork.

Studying migration? The Scientific Reports Animal Migration Collection submission deadline has been extended to 31 August 2024. This will likely be the final extension! #Migration #Ornithology #Mammalogy #Entomology #Fisheries #Ichthyology #AnimalMigration

#TIL:
1. Tapirs are most closely related to equines and rhinos.
2. Mammalian phylogeny and taxonomy is a realm of turmoil that exceeds the worst nightmares of GRRM trying to flesh out Westeros genealogies and their backstories.
3. There's a classification group with broad support that is based on their having scrotums and not being Primates.
4. The slur “wastebasket clade" exists, but seems not to be applied to Scrotifera (see 3)
