And now for the #zooarchaeology of the sea otter! Thread by #WLCrittersClass student Keane C. #2023MMM

Sea otters are a member of the Mustelidae family, and the only mammal that gives birth underwater. I’m going to focus on their history, ecological importance, and what we know about them due to archaeology, mainly from Alaskan indigenous Nations.

Sea Otters were endangered for a long time because they were overhunted in the 18th-20th centuries for their pelts. By 1911, sea otters were extinct from Oregon; their population was believed to be ~1500 in the world. (U.S Government 2017).

@TCastanea @je_light @Mammals_Suck Nowadays, Grizzly Bears are found at higher latitudes in North America, Asia & Europe, in habitats that range from forests to coast lines (Pasitschniak-Arts 1993 tinyurl.com/5n6kc93e) #2022MMM

@Mammals_Suck Introducing the 1st combatant: a DAZZLING gelatinous zooplankton of the middle-depths: the Firework Jellyfish (Halitrephes maasi) (Corrales-Ugalde et al. 2017) #2022MMM #ExhibitionBattles cambridge.org/core/journals/…
Tonight's hurlyburly is writ in part from the dubious knowledge from Edward Topsell's History of Four-Foot'd Beasts (1607) & History of Serpents (1608) for 1658's then definitive 1000-page barn-burner of a natural history compendium #YeOldeTimeyBattle #ExhibitionGames #2022MMM
Topsell collected writings from Conradus Gesner & other authors to integrate & evaluate many terms & descriptions, at times appropriately skeptical but also at times overly credulous #YeOldeTimeyBattle #2022MMM loc.gov/resource/rbcto…
Although Topsell's Beastiary was not as systematic as the Bauhin brothers a hundred years before or Linnaeus a hundred years later... #YeOldeTimeBattle #2022MMM

WELCOME TO the 10th Annual March Mammal Madness Tournament! (1/N) #2022MMM
Everything is going great and some people are saying this is the best tournament launch ever. (2/N) #2022MMM
As of 2:22 on 2-22-2022, N=6000+ educators had requested curricular materials to use MMM with their N=540,000+ learners! Clearly, the tournament is doing numbers, as the kids say. (3/N) #2022MMM

Why am I saying this?
