My latest paper about the scientific misdeeds of John James Audubon (#fraudubon) was published today in the Proceedings @AcadNatSci — welcome to the summary thread! @AmOrnith @AudubonSociety @SeattleAudubon. Peer-reviewed paper @ the following link. 1/n doi.org/10.1635/053.16…
If you’re just catching up — John James Audubon (1785–1851) was a painter & ornithologist who published *The Birds of America* (1828–38), a famous ($$$) collection of 435 life-sized, hand-colored prints of American birds. 🦅🦆🦢🦜🦃 2/n audubon.org/birds-of-ameri…

In round 1, Thalassocnus #MarineSloth munched on some sea grasses while Cynognathus #DinoDog got washed away with the #RIP tide #TeamMarineSloth eol.org/pages/4530087/… #2018MMM

Next up is the #4 Alligator Snapping Turtle against the #13 Mantis Shrimp #2018MMM
Tonight is truly a battle of tiny vs. middling, with the Alligator Snapping turtle coming in at 85 kg while the Mantis Shrimp weights about 50 g. That's a 1700x difference in mass #2018MMM
Mantis shrimp, or Stomatopods (or 'pods), are amazing creatures, of course I'm biased because I did my Ph.D. in a 'pod lab (bitly.com) #2018MMM
