Uh-oh! Skeletons have taken over the photo reference repository!

The taxonomists are taking a well-deserved fall sabbatical... but when the scientists are away, the skeletons will play!

They’ve been a little over-enthusiastic about allocating the bone stash without supervision this Halloween. Everything is a vertebrate now! You get a spine, and you get a spine, and you get — well, we’re not really sure what that last guy built. Better to just smile and nod. Step right up! For one night only, view a world in which cladistics aren’t enforced and taxonomy is non-euclidean!

The skeletons are very proud of their ossified fins and feathers. Some are even wearing their Halloween costumes already! Quick, tell them they look cute before science reasserts itself.

New Index: Baby Animals

We need things to make us smile right now, so I'm launching this page earlier than I planned.

This is a new index page - it's a list of all the species where I've got photos of juvenile animals. With previews! And it links out to the full page so you can see all the cute. It's a living page and will be updated as I get more photos online.

Right now, there's...

Gorillas

(There's some really neat photos of an extremely fresh baby gorilla being carried by mom - I can't put those on the hellsite because they don't differentiate female-presenting-nipples by species, so you gotta check them out on the page)

Black Rhinoceroses

Lions

Snow Leopards

Blackbuck

...and more!
