Check it out, we used captive bred ball pythons to "discover" - and CRISPRd Anoles to validate - a "new" gene for color patterning. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… "Piebaldism and chromatophore development in reptiles are linked to the tfec gene" Author list can be found via the link.

I need to work on being a better friend. I’m just naturally distant and can unintentionally go long periods of time without talking to anybody. I’m tryna break this habit but it’s hard when you’re a real life hermit. 😭🥲

Just learned how starfish walk and I’m not happy about it. Could you imagine how many shoes they would need

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea
