Hot new research here for #FossilFriday!

Brandon Peecook@_gondwannabe_

Perfect for #FossilFriday: our paper on aDNA from mastodons from American Falls, #Idaho! This was my first foray into the Pleistocene: the lion's share of the @IMNH208 vertebrate paleontology collections. 🦣🦣🦣 So what's so special about Idaho mastodons?

@Dave_Hone @TM9380 @zhejiang0pterus No, this is not a publicly-available file unfortunately. This is being tweaked as part of the preparations for our upcoming Dinosaurs from the Mountain exhibit on Idaho's Cretaceous. Suski is the stand-in base for our ID tyrannosauroid.

Last week, 8-12 year old students had the opportunity to get "hands-on" during our REAL STEM Open House held at the @IMNH208. Activities included a rock walk, learning to draw like a scientist, and exploring the augmented reality sandbox.

@jrossibarra @miwipe81 Preserved leaves in display on the acrylic stands in the front - lighting and paint don't help much in this photo.

@jrossibarra @miwipe81 It is true! We've got leaves preserved in consolidant (injected into the rock before splitting) from the Clarkia beds that are still green on display currently. We definitely understand that the DNA data can be further analyzed, but the leaves are green!

We broke the world record in ancient DNA today! 2-million-year-old DNA from plants and animals were retrieved from geological deposits and show that North Greenland was once home to an open boreal/arctic community incl. mastodon. nature.com/articles/s4158… natureasia.com/en/research/hi…

It’s been a whirlwind week for vert paleo: under the radar my first Masters student, Brenlee Shipps, published the main finding of her thesis. Organismal biologists can use the fine details of tooth shape to infer diet, but what about animals with no teeth? ❌🦷

The Anatomical Record@AnatRecord

How do you know what an animal eats if it doesn't have any teeth? Find out how a turtle's skull reveals its diet! New research by Brenlee Shipps , @_gondwannabe_ & Kenneth D. Angielczyk: doi.org/10.1002/ar.251…
