  5. Africa is bigger than China, the US, Eastern Europe & India combined.

    Since Earth is a sphere, flat maps dramatically distort the size of continents.

  10. Over 100M years ago, titanosaur ‘Patagotitan mayorum‘ wandered around what is now Argentina. It grew >120 feet long, 28 feet tall & weighed ~ 70 tons. (That’s longer than a blue whale!)

  15. I should add that on #Mastodon, it's very helpful to use hashtags.

    I tend to include #science & #history in my posts, but I've also created hashtags to keep related posts easily accessible.

    For example, #HistoryRemix is a series highlighting diverse pioneers in science & the arts. #SharedPlanet is all about the biodiversity of life on Earth.

    The #fediverse is different than other social networks bc we get to build & curate our experience. It's us, not an algorithm. /2

  25. Takahē once roamed across New Zealand’s South Island, but introduced predators, hunting, habitat destruction & competition for food have taken a heavy toll.

    For ~50 years, these flightless #birds were presumed extinct, but they were rediscovered in 1948.

    Today there are less than 500 takahē left, but numbers have been increasing through successful conservation measures.

  30. Not long ago, the enormous Haast's eagle soared over New Zealand.

    Weighing almost 40lbs (18kg) with a wingspan up to ~10ft (3m), they likely feasted on the gigantic moa birds I described in an earlier post. Maori oral tradition also suggests they may have attacked human children.

    So what happened to this fierce apex predator? Once the moa disappeared due to excess hunting after the arrival of people, Haast’s eagle followed around 1400. nzbirdsonline.org.nz/species/h. #SharedPlanet #science #nature

  35. Meet the critically endangered Talaud bear cuscus (Ailurops melanotis). Hunting & deforestation have forced this shy marsupial to the brink of extinction.

    Living in the forest canopy, the Talaud bear cuscus eats leaves & fruit. It also helps to limit invasive plants.

    We know very little about this quiet & rare species, which scientists believe inhabits just 4 Indonesian islands. I hope we work to protect it before it disappears forever. news.mongabay.com/2022/06/to-w #SharedPlanet #nature #science

  40. The history of Earth as the length of a human’s outstretched arm - representing 4.5 billion years of time.

    At this scale, humans emerged so recently that we could be filed off from a microscopic slice at the very tip of a fingernail.

  45. About 60 million years ago, a gigantic snake called Titanoboa slithered through the swamps of Colombia, killing its prey by constriction.

    Titanoboa was massive, estimated to grow up to 50 ft (>15 m) long, over 2,000 lbs (>900 kg) & 3 ft (~1 m) wide. It could have easily devoured animals as large as alligators. floridamuseum.ufl.edu/100years Image: Smithsonian Channel

  50. I had a request to make it easier to find previous posts about the diversity of animals & plants that share our world. And that sounded like a good idea.

    So I went back & tagged toots related to the rich biodiversity of life on Earth with the hashtag #SharedPlanet
