I've been X-quiet lately because things have been busy! The lab survived the Mammal Meetings in Boulder 🤓 (No one got covid this year?!?!! Love that!)

The Tongass Land Mgmt Plan (which reg's the Tongass NF in SE Alaska) is currently undergoing revision. To help inform that process, we reviewed the status of regional endemics & specimen capacities to measure change through time: doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.2… Toni Androski Ben Wiens

Last month, KU Mammalogy toured the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Black-Footed Ferret Conservation Center, which supported the development of the museum's 5th floor exhibit. The team saw captive-bred ferrets preparing to be released into the wild & Elizabeth Ann — the first black-footed ferret clone!

We caught our first Phylloderma stenops a few nights ago at FCAT! Such a cool bat!
