🦁 NEW: Researchers tracking #lions and spotted #hyenas in southern #Africa found that the hyenas consistently maintain distance from lions over kilometers of territory rather than merely scavenging near kills. #GPS #data captured male lions moving toward hyenas, reframing the dynamics of the famous #wildlife rivalry.

🦜 NEW: Behavioral biologist Jorg Massen gave 17 Galah #Cockatoos a daily choice to fly free.

The #birds almost always flew, then foraged and raised their crests more. They also showed greater #optimism about finding #walnuts after #flying. Massen sees #flight as an ethological need, tying the #research to #animal welfare that enables their natural behaviors.

Evolutionary genome topology is a new comparative framework that projects the structural evolution of animal chromosomes onto a single map. It reveals that animal genomes do not change at random, but rather evolve along distinct, irreversible pathways over millions of years.

💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🔬🌸 Japanese #nature photographer Pendora (ぺんどら) captures tiny globular #springtails measuring around 0.3 mm in length.

These wetland micro-arthropods display face-to-face courtship interactions and use a spring-loaded tail organ called a furcula to execute high-speed jumps that look like #teleportation.

"“It’s gross at one level, but it’s also kind of adorable. They’re cruising around like, ‘Oh, this looks delicious. I’ll eat some of this and then put the rest on my back.’”

In 2024 a new species of caterpillars got discovered on Hawaii that not only use other insects' body parts to hide under but also occasionally are cannibalists! I just love everything about this.

Interactions between #Yellowstone #wolves and #cougars are driven by wolves usurping cougar kills, prompting cougars to adapt by shifting their diet to smaller prey that can be consumed quickly and utilizing escape terrain to avoid fatal encounters.

Ecotype (Landscape ecology 🏞️)

Ecotypes are organisms which belong to the same species but possess different phenotypical features as a result of environmental factors such as elevation, climate and predation. Ecotypes can be seen in wide geographical distributions and may eventually lead to speciation.

An #Introduction:

I'm the #Curator of #Herpetology at the #NaturalHistoryMuseum of #Denmark, and #AsstProf of #Vertebrate #Zoology at the University of Copenhagen.

I work in evolutionary and systematic herpetology, working on a variety of topics including #museomics, #macroevolution, #convergence, #phylogeography, #speciation, #systematics, and #taxonomy. I mostly work on the #amphibians and #reptiles of #Madagascar. #Miniaturisation is my jam.
