Journal of #Mammalogy reports, via camera studies, that some Ursus arctos exaggerate scent‑mark height to fake size, revealing mammalian guile.
A minority of the #bears living among the peaks of León, Asturias and Cantabria may be #lying about their true size to avoid having to face larger rivals
How? By using the signs and markings these mammals leave in their surroundings to stake out territory.

The Mount Lyell #shrew is back!
In three nights and a few pitfall traps in California these students trapped and photographed four species of shrews including the very poorly known Mount Lyell shrew. Good thing their #mammalogy class included #fieldwork.

Studying migration? The Scientific Reports Animal Migration Collection submission deadline has been extended to 31 August 2024. This will likely be the final extension! #Migration #Ornithology #Mammalogy #Entomology #Fisheries #Ichthyology #AnimalMigration

1. Tapirs are most closely related to equines and rhinos.
2. Mammalian phylogeny and taxonomy is a realm of turmoil that exceeds the worst nightmares of GRRM trying to flesh out Westeros genealogies and their backstories.
3. There's a classification group with broad support that is based on their having scrotums and not being Primates.
4. The slur “wastebasket clade" exists, but seems not to be applied to Scrotifera (see 3)
