Ice Age hunters targeted female woolly mammoths, ancient DNA study finds
For decades, archaeologists have argued over one question. Did huge piles of woolly mammoth bones build up through natural deaths, or did Ice Age people create them through hunting and butchering? A new DNA study points strongly toward human activity...

40,000-year-old mammoth ivory bird figurines from Hohle Fels are among the smallest Ice Age carvings
Archaeologists working at Hohle Fels Cave in southwestern Germany have found two tiny bird carvings made from mammoth ivory. The figures date to about 40,000 years ago and rank among the smallest Ice Age animal carvings ever found. Even though each one is no bigger than a thumbnail, both include fine details...

A new species of #IceAge toad discovered at La Brea Tar Pits: the spadefoot #toad Spea labreae
Along with the first description of an #extinct species of #amphibian, the paper also identifies the first record of the Mexican burrowing toad at the Tar Pits, shedding light on climate change impacts on species distributions past, present, and future -

🦌🦥🐴🐘🐪 For #FossilFriday — Megaloceros giganteus, the Irish elk, which I was able to visit in June. Specimen USNM 7051 is masterfully mounted at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History.
The mount features a massive steel armature to support its nearly 3.4–3.6 meter antler spread. Studies show Megaloceros dropped and regrew its antlers each year.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐸🦴 Spea labreae is a newly named spadefoot toad from La Brea Tar Pits, the first extinct Ice Age amphibian found there.
Paleoecologist Alberto Cruz spotted its unusual #bones while reviewing a collection untouched for nearly 30 years. The team also found a toad whose closest living relatives now live 2,400 km (1,500 mi) away, a clue to how #LosAngeles’s #climate changed at the end of the last #iceage.

Beyond its cultural impact and box office success, the series provided significant financial stability for its lead voice actor, John Leguizamo. The actor recently shared how his long-running role as Sid the sloth fundamentally changed his life and career trajectory....

Ice Age cave paintings in the Basque region followed a structured pattern, study finds
Ancient artists who painted caves in the Basque region between 16,000 and 14,000 years ago followed a clear visual plan, according to a new study. The research found the paintings were arranged using shared rules instead of being placed at random, pointing to a graphic system with an ordered structure...

Acteur John Leguizamo is dankbaar voor het feit dat hij al een kwart eeuw de stem van Sid de luiaard inspreekt in de Ice Age-films. Dat zei de ster uit The Odyssey in Entertainment Tonight. Leguizamo sprak Sid al in voor vijf speelfilms en diverse korte animaties. De zesde speelfilm is in de maak.

🐯🐾🦥🐴🐘🐪 For #FossilFriday, a fantastic mount from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History’s Hall of Fossils. The Smilodon on display — specimen v10928 — is a composite skeleton, greeting visitors with its wide saber toothed smile.
California’s state fossil, Smilodon fatalis, lived from roughly 400,000 to 11,000 years ago. Every bone in this composite came from the La Brea Tar Pits.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🍄🪨 Researchers at the University of #Michigan pulled #water from gas wells deep under the #GreatLakes and found a dense #ecosystem.
The water has remained #underground since the #IceAge more than 11,000 years ago. The isolated #environment contains hundreds of fungal species alongside tiny #worms and #tardigrades.

"Cool" update 💿
Well, after watching Ice Age 5 on DVD, I wanted to update the little collection, so when I found a good deal on a high res quality edition, I spent more money I should not have... 😇
They're not the best pictures, but they do show the newest addition to the small Ice Age movie 🎬 collection.

#GoodNight and #TZAG everyone :ablobcatpopcorn:
I've just popped in the second Shaun the Sheep movie in the player 💿... Farmagaddon.
And... I got the "need" to go upstairs...
And... Grab my Ice Age collection... 😊Unfortunately, I don't have them all on Blu-ray yet... Before the divorce, we had a 3D TV. After the divorce, my ex had one... 😔 Unfortunately, these TVs are not being made anymore, it seems... So I guess the special 3D-editions of the movies may not be enjoyed anymore...
And the last movie, I got from my aunt, so that's a DVD too (as I would have gotten the Blu-ray, for the better quality...).Still, I *think* there may be an Ice Age movie 🎬 fest coming up soon, after the Shaun movies have been seen...

Eremotherium for #FossilFriday.
This towering giant ground sloth, Eremotherium laurillardi, stands in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History. Remounted on a custom steel armature during the 2019 renovation of the Hall of Fossils–Deep Time, its external support structure is a piece of engineering artwork in its own right.The animal reportedly contains more than 80% genuine fossil bone and stands 13 feet tall.
