One in 4 species are threatened with extinction! 😧 adding to this, several local populations of non threatened species are declining for the last decades!

I can’t believe that the lead researcher they interviewed for this story used a to describe the situation as: “…a random fluke.“

Repost of evo piece. Pakicetus, Ambulocetus, Aegicetus, Dorudon, to scale. Lots of guesswork with soft tissues here. I gave Dorudon tiny external hindlimbs, and Aegicetus a beaver-like tail. I have yet to see an Ambulocetus recon that makes it look like a real animal.

So frustrated by the uselessness of search engines now. I'm trying to find what seems like a really simple thing: a list of sizes of common UK-sea whale vertebrae. I've found some on a beach, I'd like to know what species they might be from, all I want is a list (e.g. right whale smallest is 5cm, largest 15cm diam., or whatever). Yet no string of search terms turns up anything useful, it's infuriating. Any experts out there in land?

The of is *really* weird for a cetacean — it has more thoracic vertebrae than any extant cetacean (17-18) and they’re fairly elongate. Contrarily, there are very few lumbers (0-1). This is quite similar to the condition in manatees (!) but as you can tell from the video, this species looks like a surprisingly standard
