got his ass
Don’t mind me just thinking about the hole in the middle of the United States where Chipping sparrows refuse to fuck
“scientists don’t want you know” is a phrase that always cracks me up because if you actually meet a scientist they will be shaking and crying like an overstimulated chihuahua with the need to let you know
finals week is going to kill me… here are some crayfish 🫶

creatures of the week! this week has been so busy with finals coming up and lots of gravid snakes. A few animals in the lab are in hospital enclosures right now- the poor guys. This years brumation was a rough one apparently.
star crossed lovers……
Great week for field work!
Pictured: Eastern garter snake (Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis), eastern red centipede (Scolopocryptops sexspinosus), red backed salamander (Plethodon cinereus), and gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor)
It’s Pi day, but did you know it’s also National save-a-spider day? Our Zoo Science spiders are crawling for joy! Our unpopular arachnid friends deserve our appreciation for their role in keeping insect populations controlled. That spider building a web on your porch is gearing up to catch all of those little insects trying to crash your party. If you find a spider in your house, try to take it outside instead of stepping on it- your Barbecue will thank you!
I need to leave my apartment and go to work but there's a female Downy Woodpecker on my suet block pecking crumbs onto the ground where a female Carolina Wren is eating them #womensupportingwomen
But I can't leave because I would disturb them and they really need this right now (it's 3F and going to snow)

well hello!
If only there was a word for how long a foot-long hotdog is
if you read about any biology you can quickly lose touch with what is astonishing and miraculous vs what is mundane, from animals that steal chloroplasts to become photosynthetic, to cloning technology being old hat, to trees that didn’t biodegrade for tens of millions of years, to naturally occurring lateral gene transfer between vastly different species, to the creation of gametes from adult cells, to the ability of some cancers to induce blood vessel growth, to desert shrimp that lie dormant for years, to the sensitivity of human touch receptors, to the fact that human hardware has a latent ability to see UV but their corneas block those wavelengths, to birds that echolocate and live in caves, to human skin being covered in enzymes that destroy RNA, to individual trees becoming genetic tapestries branch by branch, to life forms that gain energy from the electron potential of metals in their environments, to plants that recognize their siblings and adjust their behavior accordingly when growing next to them, to metamorphosis
which is to say. All of it is miraculous. and all of it is mundane. biology is Chaos vs. Order locking horns forever
