It’s #Minnesota #MammalMonday! 🐴🦬🐪🦣🦥🦫🍃 Horses made America – feeding the American big cats during the Pleistocene and both transporting and feeding modern humans during the Holocene.
This skull from Bannack, Montana, and butchered tibia from New Ulm, Minnesota highlight both the modern mystique and the utility of the horse.

#MammalMonday Siwalik trivia: E. Khan collected over 7500 fossils from the Upper Siwaliks of northern India; making this one of the largest Plio-Pleistocene fossil collections from the region during post-independence era, from within a well recorded stratigraphic context.
Today is Monday, so it’s #MammalMonday (why not?), and here’s a skeleton of the European hamster (Cricetus cricetus) with cheek pouches. 🐹
It is kept in the collection of the Department of Vertebrate Zoology, Saint Petersburg State University.
