My lab had the pleasure of collaborating with colleagues from @texastech.bsky.social on a joint field expedition in Kansas and Nebraska! In total, 4 students, 1 postbac, and 3 PIs participated on the trip. We even had the opportunity of crashing at the Thompson Ranch for an evening...

Some of the #ummz mammal division students got in on a little moose antler cleaning today!!! The antlers were part of a donation to our collection, but needed a little TLC before going into the cabinets.

This week I hosted a group from @unccharlotte! The UNC students received training in field biology, mammals & museums, as well as science communication. As a capstone, the students are doing an outreach event on bats today at the @UMMNH.

If you are @VisitAnchorage for the #imc13 meeting, be sure to check out @SnowCityCafe in the downtown! It’s a short walk from the conference hotels, and they have free coffee while you wait…

You can tell a lot about a #naturalhistory museum by looking at its shipping boxes! In #mammalogy, wood crates are often used to ship specimens. This box was sent by the @ROMtoronto to the #ummz, but it also has spent time at the @AMNH & @zsiwrcpune.
