Today we're excited to share a few pictures of a ~30,000 year old arctic ground squirrel that was discovered at Hester Creek in the Klondike Gold Fields, within the Traditional Territory of the Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in near Dawson City, Yukon.

Thanks to Alpine Veterinary Medical Centre, we were able to get some incredible x-rays of the squirrel's remains. It's amazing to think that this little guy was running around the Yukon several thousand years ago.

It’s and I haven’t been great about this. I’ve been meaning to share art that I’ve seen, and that’ll happen. I saw someone share the Mastodon skeleton from the Harvard Natural History Museum. I took a pic of that in June 2019.
