Yippee! My favorite cetacean! When I was in high school I went on a dolphin studies program in Belize, and for the final project we had to chose any cetacean and give a presentation on them. I chose the narwhal and have been smitten ever since.
Once again, the middle of the week has rolled around and I find my self having an abysmally low level of motivation as my finals inch ever closer. So what better way to distract myself than with dolphin sex! Dolphins are known for getting frisky quite often, because everyone knows that darlin’ it’s better down where it’s wetter, take it from me!
So Illinois is finally taking the big leap and making the decision that maybe, just maybe, lion meat shouldn’t be sold for consumption. That’s right, Illinois officials have decided its high time to stop selling their citizens lion burgers, for the good of the lions of course.
To Revive or Not to Revive?
As science advances, researchers find themselves facing ethical questions about de-extinction
A female sand tiger shark has two wombs, though can have multiple fetuses in each. However, only one from each womb will survive to birth. That’s because survival of the fittest is already in play inside the mother shark.
Seahorse sex is just plain weird. They’re one of the only animals where the male get pregnant.
I’m calling out to all of my followers to beg you guys for some quotes and your opinions on DE-EXTINCTION.
There are people thinking about bringing back things like mammoths, shasta ground sloths and even the passenger pigeon.
Any thoughts or responses are welcome! If you don’t want to post anything here my email is: sabell@smu.edu

This week in science by I F*cking Love Science:
Happy belated world penguin day! Yeah, yeah, yeah I’m a day late but my crippling migraine kept me off the internet last night. Penguins are amazing! But many people are very misinformed about penguins. They imagine a bunch of birds living in the Antarctic being eaten by seals and polar bears. Wrong!
It’s a zebra! No! It’s an antelope! No! It’s a giraffe! No! It’s an okapi!
There are not a lot of animals as strange as the okapi, with its black and white stripes, 12 inch long purple-prehensile tongue and its red goo it secretes from it’s skin.
