Traditional owners say they hope the park's new listing will trigger action to prevent the spread of an invasive grass species that's changing the ancient landscape.

AABA Statement in Support of Trans Lives

"The American Association of Biological Anthropologists, the American Association of Anthropological Genetics, the Dental Anthropology Association, the Paleopathology Association, The PaleoAnthropology Society, the Biological Anthropology Section of the American Anthropological Association, and the Human Biology Association stand together against the escalating legislation and governance in the United States and across the globe that attacks the existence of transgender, non-binary, and gender-diverse peoples. We affirm the power of all persons to make the ultimate decisions over what happens to our/their own bodies. We oppose legislation that is rooted in and maintains rigid binary conceptions of sex and gender which impact reproductive justice and access to care for everyone. We condemn the biological essentialism driving much of this legislation. As biological anthropologists, we condemn the historical role of our discipline in producing binaries of sex, gender, and sexuality and are committed to work that enacts a more livable world. ..."

My random thoughts about the history of extinction is posted now on a paywall-free site, they literally posted it to the history page, although after you read it, you may think it's in the speculative History Channel sense of history... but enjoy... if enjoy is the right word...
