Desperately sad news. Museums are treasure houses of objects and knowledge, founts of inspiration for future generations, places of wonder - and research. Places that invite us to see ourselves in a deep, wide context. Our society and culture is impoverished if we lose them. Having spent many hours behind the scenes in this one, poring over skeletal collections at National Museum Wales, working with archaeologists there, my heart is riven by this sad news. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj7m…

Great accessible write-up for younger audiences of our wolf paper from last year. From @SJforKids, with myself and Dave Stanton @Nibbledtodeath
Recently, an 18,000 year old preserved canine puppy, named Dogor, was found. Scientists at @TheCrick wanted to learn more about wolf domestication and the evolution of modern-day dogs, with the help of Dogor! Learn more in our new adapted article: sciencejournalforkids.org/ar…

Moment of truth! Do we have Gorilla DNA? Are we going to find out where @Alfred_Gorilla really came from?

Fresh out of the oven! new paper about Amazonian earthworm 🪱 biodiversity. This paper shows that Amazonian Dark Earths have an exclusive pool of earthworm species. Thanks to all the authors, @GeorgeGBrown8 @Nibbledtodeath @DecaensT ! Check it out: doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.…
