Soul Crushing Conservation News

Just look at this bleakness…

Brent Stirton won the London natural history museum’s 2017 photograph of the year for that bit of poached gruesomeness.  Good for you, Brent, that photography is on point.  The subject matter is ghastly as fuck.  It’s as ghastly as a mutha fucker, whatever that is.

Shitting On Human Evolution Hype

An unknown primate tooth was unearthed in Germany recently…

For some reason when previously unidentified primate fossils are discovered outside of Africa the media is quick to rewrite the human evolution story.  Maybe a new wrinkle, or even the hint of a new wrinkle, drives clicks and sells papers (so do nip slips). I feel dirty for posting a link to sensational articles, but, eh, fuck it.

Luckily, Nat Geo promptly shit on this hype in the fashion that I would expect of them.  Nat Geo, you are the bomb-diggity.

More Dolphin Sex

Last week’s This Week In Nature blog had an evolutionary tale of dolphin rape.  This week, it is dolphin courtship the sweet way – by bringing the pretty lady a present.

Dolphins are smart as shit, 10x smarter than the ape writing this blog.  When they want to get down with the finest of marine mammals they know that they can’t step to her with whack game.  Nah, bro.  They step to her with a fly sponge or some mad-tight debris.  Ladies be swooning!

Okay, that is enough for now.  Hey, sue for only posting a few articles, but it was a slow week on the Interwebs for nature.  Plus, I know that my parole officer is looking for me right.  I have to duck that bitch again!
