We CT scanned thousands of vertebrates from US natural history collections and made them freely available. Countless people have used the data for research (>200 pubs) and to learn anatomy/morphology.

I support the US garment industry. I don't believe in making life harder for immigrants or erecting blanket tariffs. So how can we reshore some of our US garment manufacturing without xenophobia or protectionism? Here's my view. 🧵

A few more sea otter photos. I watched this mother and pup pair for about a half hour at Morro Bay last month. She was pretty busy grooming the pup, and he was busy just touching his face and being adorable. 🐬🦑
