Digital artwork of a woolly mammoth with a luxurious coat and soulful lashes. She is leaping in victory while some kind of (unseen) volcanic surface lights her glossy fur from underneath. The image has no background. It's just the mammoth because that's all you really need to see here, really.
I'm well aware that elephants cannot jump, but you've never seen a living woolly mammoth in the first place so don't even get started on scientific accuracy here
Character from my game about animals who...jump! On a volcano!

Possible Ice Age horse molar next to bison molar. Science Museum of Minnesota. Another incredible Ice Age find from my good friend Bill in 2018 — New Ulm, Minnesota. Every one of these teeth and bones helps us answer a bigger question: Were Ice Age horses still roaming Minnesota later than we thought? Follow along as we work through all twelve specimens and uncover what the dates reveal. #Pleistocene #Equus #MinnesotaHistory #Paleontology #CitizenScience #IceAgeMinnesota #RadiocarbonDating

🐴 #FossilFriday — Lower horse molar (SMM P2020.7.34) from my hometown ❤️🔥. Specimen 7 of 12 headed for radiocarbon dating. #LostBones updates on Substack: substack.com/@marcusbrand...
👇 What do you think this molar’s age will come back as — Ice Age or more recent?

The first thorough #genetic assessment of the Volga River Basin is here!
Researchers #barcoded 84 #fish species, discovering 7 species new to the region (incl. 2 invasives) and 3 new phylogenetic lineages. The Kama River is highlighted as a vital #Pleistocene refuge and Arctic faunal corridor. ⤵️

A man in a green tee-shirt (Prof Andy Gale) recording Chalk stratigraphy and collecting samples at Keswick Chalk Pit, near Norwich, UK. The excavated chalk is white, but the weathered chalk surface is green with algae and has shrubs growing on it.
Pleased to have helped Andy Gale in his research - storvaxt.blogspot.com/2020/05/clin.... He's inspired me to find out more about early #Pleistocene #barnacles in the Norwich Crag Formation.

Dated human footprints from the White Sands area of New Mexico suggest that people were in North America by ~23,000 calibrated years before the present.
The stratigraphic data...spans >23.6 thousand years to ~17.0 thousand calibrated YBP.

A 3D-printed replica in brown plastic of a fossil mandible of Stephanorhinus hundsheimensis. It shows two mandibular rami with rows of molar teeth in. The original is in the Natural History Museum, London.
Peter Stibbons holding a 3D-printed replica in brown plastic of a fossil mandible of Stephanorhinus hundsheimensis. It shows two mandibular rami with rows of molar teeth in. The original is in the Natural History Museum, London. Peter is driving forward a project to digitise fossil collections relating to the Victorian collectors Alfred Savin and Anna Gurney - see https://www.cromer-savin.co.uk/.
Members of the Norfolk Museums team and fossil collectors discussing the 3D-printed rhinoceros jaw, seated around a table at Cromer Museum. The jaw is made of brown plastic.
Awesome 3D printing brings a fossil Stephanorhinus jaw from the West Runton Freshwater Bed out of @nhm.org stores - thanks to Peter Stibbons and Cromer Savin Project team www.cromer-savin.co.uk, and special thanks to @lotterygoodcauses.bsky.social for funding.

The oldest sewn hide ever found came from an Oregon cave. It’s elk, stitched with plant-and-hair cordage, and it dates to 12,000 years ago when winter survival depended on fitted clothing. #Archaeology #Pleistocene #GreatBasin www.anthropology.net/p/the-oldest...

Thoughts on my favorite #Pleistocene #Megafauna species...
I remember at 8 years old waiting all day by the TV for Walking With Beasts to air on #DiscoveryChannel. "Next Of Kin" was the episode that captured me the most

Scruffy-looking woman wrapped in a lot of ragged pelts whittling on a sapling she is holding.
Artifacts dug up in southern Greece may be the oldest wooden tools ever discovered. They bear signs of shaping by #earlyhumans in the #Pleistocene. They suggest our species used wooden tools 40,000 years earlier than previously demonstrated.

Mixed media artwork of a Columbia’s mammoth fossil overlayed by a highway map of Lincoln county Nebraska.
The Columbian mammoth fossil I worked from for this painting was found in Lincoln county, Nebraska (the map depicted). I was inspired by the state’s Highway Paleontology Program.

Magic lantern slide depicting two views of one of the Homotherium latidens canines found by McEnery in Kents Cavern in Jan 1826. The teeth are scimitar-shaped and have distinctive serrated edges. The hand-painted label reads "Pre-historic Man. Canine Tooth of Sabre toothed Lion from Kent's Hole Mac. Enery."
Jan 1826. Rev. J. McEnery discovered 5 canine teeth of Homotherium latidens in Kents Cavern, Devon - the first evidence of this species in Britain. Later magic lantern slide depicts one tooth, based on 1826 drawings by Mary Buckland (neé Morland).

A black-and-white pencil sketch on paper of a bull Platycerabos dodsoni (a prehistoric bovine with flat, forward-curling horns) confronting a Greater Sage Grouse. The bull has its front legs slightly spread and its head fully angled down such that it and the grouse are eye-to-eye. The grouse has its tail-fan spread wide.
Slightly delayed flocking #Paleostream sketch, a bull Platycerabos confronting a particularly aggressive Sage Grouse on the open plains of Nebraska. Platycerabos was an enigmatic bovine known from one strange skull, and little-acknowledged since the 1930s. #pleistocene #paleoart #bovid
