The gang discusses two papers about an interesting locality in South America and the various body fossils and ichnofossils found in this locality. This podcast originally started as a patreon request to podcast about fossil procyonids… but it ended up like this… ooops! Meanwhile, James has a vocal doppelganger, Amanda deals with being human, Curt deals with scams, and everyone talks way too much about visuals on an audio podcast. Up-Goer Five: (Curt Edition) The friends talk about a place that has rocks from a long time ago that give us an idea of the types of animals that were around in the land areas under where the friends are today. The land where our friends are one used to not be touching the land that is under them like it is now. Once these two lands touched, then the animals from each land moved into the other lands. This place is from a time before these two lands had finished touching, so some animals moved over but others had not yet. The first paper looks at some parts of a type of animals that is brother/sister to animals that grab food out of our place we put food that we can not eat anymore. These animals had moved onto the land under the land our friends are on before the two lands had stopped touching. The place where these parts are found is interesting because it seems like it is under water for some time but there are some bits that are not under water. The first paper shows some marks in the ground that are interesting, but the second paper goes in on these marks to show that they are homes and marks from food searches from other animals. These marks show that the animals in this area were doing a lot of things to make homes and look for food under the ground. This shows that even before other animals moved from the other land, animals in this area were doing cool things in the ground. References: Soibelzon, Leopoldo H., et al.

Loin thickness and rump fat assessments in mule deer are vital for gauging their nutritional status and overall health. Loin thickness, measured through ultrasound, provides a quantitative measure of subcutaneous fat, while Rump Body Condition Scores (rBCS) offer a qualitative assessment on a scale from 1 to 5. These metrics aid wildlife managers in making informed decisions about mule deer populations, helping to ensure their well-being and conservation Stephenson, T. R., V. C. Bleich, B. M. Pierce, and G.

The gang discusses two papers that use morphometric studies to investigate patterns of ecomorphy in the fossil record. Specifically, they look at two papers that investigate how morphology in sloths and pterosaurs changes over time, and how well these changes map onto changes in body size and ecological shifts. Meanwhile, Amanda could be dean, Curt has opinions on figures, and James provides butchery advice. Up-Goer Five (Curt Edition): The friends talk about two papers that look at how things look and how that changes over time, and looks to see if these things are changing because of what they do. The first paper looks at animals with hair and long arms that move very slow. There are not a lot of these animals today, but in the past there was a lot of these animals and they did a lot of other things that we do not see them do today. These animals were also looking different as well. But it seems that the things that look different are closer to each other by being close sisters to each other. They also do find that these animals are also doing different things when they look different. The second paper looks at angry animals who can fly but are not the animals that can fly today. These animals start small and get big over time. They actually get big a few times. This paper looks at the parts of these animals and shows the many different ways that parts can change to make these animals big or small. It also shows that, when these things get really big is when the group seems to be doing really bad. References: Yu, Yilun, Chi Zhang, and Xing Xu. "Complex macroevolution of pterosaurs."

"I pretty much used the Humpback whale sound in its' entirety, employing a bit of Izotope to remove some of the extra ambient noise. "Then warped in Ableton to create a loop out of it, adding some extra delay and reverb. I kept all the extra clicks etc. as I didn't want to take too much away from the original sound. "The field recording has a fragile, beautiful mood to it, which is how I start and end my composition. This was the source for my inspiration. The middle section has a feeling of movement, a journey, inspired by their yearly migrations. "(If you had to visualise my composition, it starts where they feed in the polar waters, then start their huge migration to tropical waters, finally arriving at their destination to breed and give birth.) "To add to the immense, majestic size and feel of them, I also used some tubas and pitched the original recording an octave down." Humpback whale reimagined by Sean Ou Tim (Mr Sakitumi).

Episode Notes This rabbity rodent of South America's grasslands is a common sight in zoos, but has one of the strangest social structures we've talked about in mammals. What makes this strictly monogamous-til-death, pair-bonded, troupe-travelling mammal SO antisocial? How does that work, and what else have we been missing all this time? Nicole shares about the Patagonian Mara (Cavy) in this episode of The Best Biome. Thanks for listening! Primary Sources: Photos and more at our site! Genest, H. & Dubost, G. (1974).

Unless otherwise noted, all Web addresses mentioned were functional as of 8-12-22. TRANSCRIPT OF AUDIO From the Cumberland Gap to the Atlantic Ocean, this is Virginia Water Radio for the weeks of August 15 and August 22, 2022. MUSIC – ~19 sec – instrumental. That's part of ‘To the Wild,” by the Virginia band The Steel Wheels. It opens an episode about a chance hearing of two very different kinds of wild animals, and how they might be similar or different, including in relation to water. Have a listen to their calls for about 20 seconds and see if you know these two types of animals. And here's a hint: one's in a scientific family with, and the other rhymes with, dogs. SOUNDS - ~21 sec. If you guessed coyotes and frogs, you're right! You heard barks and other sounds from coyotes, along with calls of Gray Treefrogs. This lucky recording on the night of July 5, 2022, in Blacksburg, got your Virginia Water Radio host exploring potential connections and contrasts between this terrestrial mammal in the dog family, and this partially aquatic amphibian. Here are seven areas of note. 1. Like other living things, both coyotes and frogs are largely made of water and require it for biological functions. Unlike coyotes, frogs can absorb water through their naked skin, that is, skin without scales, feathers, or fur. 2. As amphibians, Gray Treefrogs breed in water, which of course coyotes don't. 3. Like other mammals, coyotes keep a constant body temperature, and they evaporate water through panting to cool themselves. Frogs' body temperature fluctuates with the environment; having naked skin that's permeable to water, frogs are at risk of drying out if their habitat isn't moist. 4. Coyotes and adult frogs both have lungs for exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide, but, in frogs, gas exchange also occurs across their skin. 5. Both are notable for their sounds. Coyotes use barks, howls, and other sounds to communicate to family members and to potential competitors, and frog males use calls to attract females, signal their presence to other males, and perhaps to startle away predators. 6. These animals appear together in at least three Native American legends, including one from the Kalapuya people of Oregon, called “The Coyote and the Frog People.” In this story, the coyote sneakily digs through a dam the frogs use to hold all of the world's water for themselves; this then creates all the rivers, lakes, and waterfalls and ends the frogs' water hoarding. And 7. Both coyotes and Gray Treefrogs show remarkable adaptability to human environments. Coyotes are noted for occupying habitats near humans, such as city and suburban parks. Gray Treefrogs, meanwhile, can also be found in human spaces, such as in swimming pools or on house walls or decks. One wildlife biologist consulted for this episode said that in his Virginia county coyotes seem to “saunter by houses like they own the place”; in the frog world, noted another biologist, Gray Treefrogs have a somewhat similar reputation. Thanks to several Virginia Tech faculty members for providing information for this episode. Thanks also to The Steel Wheels for permission to use their music, and we close with about 30 more seconds of “To the Wild.” MUSIC - ~30 sec – Lyrics: “I'm gonna run to the wild.” SHIP'S BELL Virginia Water Radio is produced by the Virginia Water Resources Research Center, part of Virginia Tech's College of Natural Resources and Environment.

The Coyote entry is online at https://services.dwr.virginia.gov/fwis/booklet.html?Menu=_.Taxonomy&bova=050125&version=19215; the Gray Treefrog entry is online at https://services.dwr.virginia.gov/fwis/booklet.html?Menu=_.Taxonomy&bova=020007&version=19215. Coyote (Scientific name: Canis latrans) Occurrence“Coyotes are thought to have started being seen in the 1950's and the 1960's here in Virginia, particularly in the western part of the state, and they now have an established population throughout the state. Current occurrence throughout the state is attributed to the steady eastward migration of this species, which is due to the elimination of other large carnivores, such as red wolves, from their former ranges and to coyotes being highly opportunistic feeders and thus are highly adaptable to many habitats.” Physical Description“The males are generally larger than the females...with a body length of 1.0-1.35 meters, and a tail length of 400 millimeters. The coat color and texture shows geographic variation, but usually the coat color is a grey mixed with a reddish tint. ...This species is generally smaller than the grey wolf. ...The track (70mm by 60mm) is more elongated than the domestic dog but shorter than either the gray or red wolf.” Reproduction“Yearling males and females are capable of breeding. The percentage of yearlings breeding is controlled by food supply. Gestation lasts 63 days. The mean litter size is 5.3 and is affected by population density and food supply.” Behavior“The home range size of the males is 20-42 kilometers (km), and for females 8-10 km. The female home ranges do not overlap whereas male home ranges do. The average daily travel is reported as 4.0 km, with dispersal movements of 160 km not uncommon. Favorable den sites include brush-covered slopes, steep banks, thickets, hollow logs, and rock ledges. The dens of other animals may be used. ...Dens may be shared and used for more than one year. ...Coyotes use visual, auditory, olfactory and tactile signals for communications. They eat mostly rodents and rabbits but also take berries fruits and carrion. They are primarily nocturnal and their howls can be heard for miles.” Gray Treefrog (Scientific name: Hyla versicolor) Occurrence“In Virginia, this species is distributed in the mountains north of the New River drainage, in the Blue Ridge, and in the Piedmont.” Physical Description“This species is identical in appearance to Hyla chrysoscelis [Cope's Gray Treefrog] but they do not interbreed. These two species can be distinguished by chromosome number and by male mating call. ...Both species are well camouflaged. They are usually gray but coloration ranges from gray to whitish to brown to green dependent upon environment and activities. There is a whitish mark beneath the eyes and a bright orange or yellow on the concealed surfaces of the hind legs. The dorsal skin is warty. This species ranges in length from 32 to 62 milllimeters (1.25-2.5 inches).” Reproduction“Males call between March and August. ...Breeding generally occurs from March to June. The female lays clumps of 10 to 40 eggs per group on the surface of shallow ditches, puddles, and ponds ...Eggs typically hatch in 4 to 5 days, and metamorphosis occurs in 45 to 64 days.” Behavior“This species is not often seen on the ground or near the water's edge except during the breeding season. It tends to forage while in small trees or shrubs near to or standing in water. This species is an opportunistic feeder focusing primarily on larval Lepidoptera [butterflies and moths], Coleoptera [beetles], and other arthropods.” Limiting Factors“This species is fairly arboreal, foraging from trees and shrubs in the vicinity of water. ...In general, this species requires shallow ponds with fallen branches or herbaceous growth on the water's edge.” Aquatic/Terrestrial Associations“This species is typically associated with the following forest types: black willow, sweet gum-willow oak, white oak-red oak-black oak and mixed pine-hardwood. They are frequently found in recently disturbed areas with shrub and herbaceous cover.” SOURCES Used for Audio Atlanta Coyote Project, “Coyote Activity Patterns, Ranges, and Vocalizations,” online at https://atlantacoyoteproject.org/coyote-activity-patterns-ranges-vocalizations/.

00:00:00 - Ryan is joined by Lisa Lundgren and Gabriel Santos, two of the heads of Cosplay for Science, an organization that uses elaborating costuming (called cosplay) to advocate for science! But first, we talk about the science. Lisa is a social scientist who studies informal science learning and Gabe is a paleontologist and outreach coordinator who has studied marine mammals including the excellent group Desmostylians. Some papers by Lisa: Social Media Interaction as Informal Science Learning: a Comparison of Message Design in Two Niches Scientific Twitter: The flow of paleontological communication across a topic network Profiles in Practice: Stories of Paleontology Within an Online, Scientific Community Some papers by Gabe: A new tuskless walrus from the Miocene of Orange County, California, with comments on the diversity and taxonomy of odobenids New data on the ontogeny and senescence of Desmostylus (Desmostylia, Mammalia) 00:31:34 - Drinks: they keep us social, so let’s have some. Ryan demonstrates proper drink segment technique with the scientifically themed MC^2 by Equilibrium Brewery sent by our very own Abe! Gabe is chilling with an IBC Root Beer, which is the kind of beer that doesn’t affect sobriety. And Lisa mysteriously enjoys a Cold Smoke Scotch Ale from KettleHouse Brewing Co in MT. 00:39:22 - In part two of our interview, we get down to costumes. How did Cosplay for Science get started? How does dressing up as fictional characters help communicate science? Will Ryan be dressing up the next time we’re able to actually go to a convention? Tune in and find out! 01:24:03 - PaleoPOWs are a lot like costuming, they hide their true nature to get in your heart. Ryan reads an e-mail from Tom C. asking us about getting on Spotify. Well thanks to his gentle nudging, we now are! Listen to (some of) our episodes on Spotify! Thanks for the nudge, Tom! More cool rewards await you if you decide to support us on our Patreon!

Draußen wird es kalt, doch das Rennen um die letzten Playoff Plätze wird zunehmend heißer und wir bringen euch auf den Stand der Dinge. Denn auch diese Woche ist wieder sehr viel in der NFL passiert. Sei es die Offensive der L.A. Rams, die in der eiskalten windy city Chicago bei den Bears nahezu vollkommen eingefroren ist. Das Miami Miracale in dem die Miami Dolphins ein unmögliches Ende zelebrierten. Ein Ende das den Tausendsassa Tom Brady der New England Patriots erneut auf dem Heimfeld der Mammalia das Fürchten lehrte. Die Pittsburgh Steelers die erneut ihrem Ruf des "choken" gegen die Oakland Raiders gerecht wurden. Die Kansas City Chiefs, die mit ihrem jungen Star Quarterback Patrick Mahomes sich so gerade über die Ziellinie retten konnten gegen eine überragende defensive der Baltimore Ravens. Doch auch deren junger, noch nicht Star Quarterback Lamar Jackson, glänzte wieder in Joe Flaccos Abwesenheit. Die Cowboys die ihren 3 Divison Titel in den letzten fünf Jahren so gut wie sicher gemacht haben. Der Sieg in over time gegen die Philadelphia Eagles macht eine Chance für eine Turnierteilnahme der Adler unwahrscheinlich. um nur einen Teil des dieswöchigen contents zu nennen. Außerdem hat Felix mal wieder seine Kreativität unter Beweis gestellt und fordert Christian zu einem Ratespiel heraus, bei dem es um nicht weniger als die digitale Identität geht. (Nunja leicht übertrieben) Falls ihr uns Vorschläge zukommen lassen wollt nutzt meldet euch bei Twitter per #NFLTuesday, schreibt uns eine DM @gfa_pod oder eine Mail an input@footballanalysts.de Wie es sich gehört auch wie immer hier der Aufruf uns (möglichst mit 5 Sternen ;) ) bei iTunes zu bewerten und/oder bei unseren Social Media Kanälen vorbei zu schauen: https://footballanalysts.de https://itunes.apple.com/de/podcast/german-football-analysts/id1227513605?mt=2 https://twitter.com/gfa_pod https://www.facebook.com/GermanFootballAnalysts/ Danke fürs Hören!
Did you know that the Brain is the most fascinating health and weight control part of the body? The first and most noticeable difference between human brains and the rest of the Mammalia class is the fact that our cerebral cortex is much more developed. The cerebral cortex is the largest region of the cerebrum in the mammalian brain and plays a key role in memory, attention, perception, cognition, awareness, thought, language, and consciousness. Because it is connected to many other regions of the brain, the cerebral cortex processes various types of information; including to scream at you to eat more if you don't educate yourself as to what is toxic to the brain, or you can make the right lifestyle choices and your body will automatically balance and become healthy. Tune in Wednesday May 9 at 7PM FOR THE REST OF THE STORY
This week, Tim and Rob talk about the past two sessions of actual play in Rob’s Mammalia setting. We talk what worked, what didn’t, and where to go with the game design. We hope you find our example useful for your games. Thanks for listening! Tim has a new book out, the sequel to Hunter and Seed. Buy Soul Art today. You can still find Tim’s free stuff at instafreebie.com. Share and enjoy!

Zoo-FISH with human whole-chromosome paint probes delineated syntenic association of human homologous chromosome segments 3-21, 14-15, 16-19, 4-8, 7-16 and 12-22 (twice) in the European mole (Talpa europaea, Talpidae, Eulipotyphla, Mammalia). These segment associations represent shared ancestral Boreo-Eutherian traits, half of which were previously not described for Eulipotyphla. The karyotype of the European mole acquired a minimum of 19 translocations and six inversions compared to the presumed Boreo-Eutherian ancestor. Copyright (c) 2006 S. Karger AG, Basel.
In order to find correlations between skin gland morphology and specific ethological features, the cutaneous glands of the foot pads of Procavia capensis were studied by histological and various histochemical methods and by electron microscopy. In the foot pads, abundant specific eccrine skin glands occur, which consist of coiled tubular secretory portions and coiled ducts. The wall of the secretory part is composed of cuboidal glandular cells and myoepithelial cells. Among the glandular cells two types occur: clear and dark cells. Clear cells have numerous mitochondria and form a basal labyrinth, indicating fluid transport. Dark cells, which stain strongly with periodic acid-Schiff, contain a highly developed perinuclear Golgi apparatus, large amounts of rough endoplasmic reticulum and many secretory granules indicating production of glycoproteins. Cytokeratin (CK) 19 was found in secretory compartments and ducts, CK14 only in duct cells. Single cells of the secretory coils and ducts may be stained with antibodies against antimicrobial peptides. Some glandular cells contain proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive nuclei especially in the ducts indicating an increased cell proliferation. Terminal transferase (TdT)-mediated d-UTP nick-end labeling-positive nuclei can be detected predominantly in the secretory coils and rarely in the transitional portions between ducts and end pieces. We suppose that proliferating cells migrate from the ducts to the secretory coils. The secretory product of the eccrine cutaneous glands seems to improve the traction between the foot pads of these animals and the steep and smooth rock formations among which they live.
